Thanks Jim. Too bad I can't fit my Mtn. bike in the P-car.

Here's a picture before the lowering Techart suspension via this link: Artic Silver with 19" HRE Comp's

M-Alex is banned from clicking on them until he grows up and becomes a civilized board member...


Btw, I'm half English (ethnically?), and half as tall..., but sometimes just as faulty. LOL!

Glad you took it the right way. By the way, you have a very nice car, really like those rims.
