RivNut Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I wonder if these are special "high speed" tires. Perhaps the OE tires (hopefully white side walls) were not capable of pace car speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the pace car hit 85 or 90. That's where my speed buzzer is set for the biased tire car. AND I usually just ignore it. Bernie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

60FlatTop Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Hey! You edited my reply and changed the meaning. Do you work for CNN? If your nose doesn't grow you will develop a slight stutter like this guy. Be careful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Gotta be careful what you say in today's world. Someone is always out there "refining" what you meant into what you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what immediately made me think of the stutterer from CNN. All you needed was five boxes with four "experts" talking over each other and a fifth saying "Can I please finish." Warning, don't follow the mainstream. That is why we have Rivieras. Bernie Oh, I flip to that channel for the comedy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie The first time I drove the 63 Riviera I once owned, I hit the buzzer setting really while getting on the freeway. I don't remember what it was set but it was quite in excess of the posted speed limit. I knew what it was and where the knob was so I set it all the way past the end of the speedometer scale and never used it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

60FlatTop Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 You gotta get pretty deep in the muckland to go over bridges like this. Turning off the Spoils Bank Rd. onto Whites City Rd. Two slices of pizza and any bottled Coke product for $4.37 across from the falls on the Clarendon Fault, couldn't find any fault in that. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
