When the system went down for a couple of days it was restored with a 2 day old 'backup'. Thus posts during that two day time frame are lost and cannot be recovered.
Lucky Big Boss had copied that post somewhere and could retrieve it! Good stuff.
I think Tom was being 'to kind' concerning the TA's. I would rate them 'dangerous' because of their serious lack of traction. The bill board Goodyears wear out to quickly?

, I don't drive enough miles to worry about wearing ANY tire out. I opted for the Goodyears for one simple reason: I want as much traction as I get for a STREET environment in order to maintain maximum control.
