Thats what you get for buying hankooks, Great Dry performance if you live past the shower on the way to the track... my old hankooks were horrible in the rain i could spin 2nd in my automatic...you need falkens

I have the azenis st-115's....you would def. need the better traction from the 615's. And since they will never see rain, you don't even half to worry about wet traction...

well almost never see rain. I would want something with good wet weather grip but it isn't a primary concern. Because if I don't try these I am going to go with the goodyear eagle f1 gd-d3s ...

Re: Can I PLEAAAAAAAASSSSE get a WEEK without it raining!!

yesterday and today have been nice.
I drove the Cougar to work today.

I'm with ya though, this rain has really been a PITA. What's worse is that they can never get the forecast correct.
We cancelled some plans for Saturday because on Thursday the forecast was awful.
Saturday turned out to be a friggin gorgeous, perfect day!!!!!! ugh

Hey, my friend Scully would like a week without rain...

No, not the hot redheaded chick in XFiles, the Cougar freak out in Mass...
No go. Perhaps you should become a hot redheaded chick.

Be happy you guys didn't get the **** we had on Saturday. Hail, larger than a pea, smaller than a marble...large pea sized hail? We had several storms come through and something on the bottom of the tv about protecting "life and property". I usually love thunderstorms, but some of them were REALLY starting to freak me out Saturday night. The stuff didn't stop scrolling on the tv all night either.

Merrimack/Nashua NH got some nasty hail over the weekend. My mother in law called to tell us about it.
