Check it out, you might qualifiy for a new set of tires. Unfortunaly, I bought mine before the manufacture date. No new free tires for me.

If you qualify for a new set of tires can you have them buy you Avon Cobras

Thanks John!
I haven't chatted with you online in a while! How are you doing these days?
Did you ever sell your Nomad?

Hay there kiddo! Doing well. Been busy getting ready for new project. We will be going to field this week on my new project. Spending way too much time in the office doing submittal reviews.

Still have the Nomad. Will probably put her back on the market in March or April. Before Christmas the best offer I got on flebay was for about $2500. An insult, so I took it off the blocks.

Been doing some work on the 2K getting ready for new pipes, intake and a Bulley controller. G-Man will be using it for R&D for the Bulley. I'll get some free stuff and a V2K that is "factory tuned to Phase 3 specs." Sweet.
