Cool

I wish I could have said "It's only flat on the bottom." But the tire really blew out; ripped to shreds. The tire guy at STS said there was slice on the sidewall and that I probably was driving on it for a while with little or no airpressure, thus the explosion of the entire outer sidewall. What a mess. Good lesson learned though. Next time I leave an event I'm really going to give the car a once over. Alot of crazy people out there.

I was thinking of getting one of those drag racing front rims and a tire suitable for a spare. What do you think?

Unfortunately I'm SOL for tommorrow's show in Glen Gardner. Maybe I can paint some white stripes on my Excursion and take that instead.
