There'd be nothing left of me but a pool of sweat and a smile.

nope!, won't buy a mazda again after the bullshit treatment I got from a dealer ship in Adelaide ( can i say Paradise) and theres not enough here to have an option.

I can be tempted by an RX7 or a factory charged 8 though

Mia is not coming due to work.

The SP23 is great, drive it around King Lake the other day after lunch. Little Ms Taka is sleeping so we drove for 2 hours - along the twisties and catching up on the bikes. The car felt great although slightly under power - a full characteristics of a front wheel drive - and I drove very smoothy and very quick.... still able to keep Alyssa asleep. She woke up 2 hours later and seems not realised what happened

That's a shame. Thinking about Danielle driving her car up behind me full of my track tyres

Not sure about driving all the way up there on the Toyo R888 semislicks as I am a bit worried about the possible wear issues of that amount of km even though it is pretty straight. What do you think? Danielles not real thrilled about driving up too as she would prefer to be in the car with me but I don't want to prematurely wear the tyres either!

Stephen (the one with the DC5) does that many times with the semislick

There is not much wear on highway even at 110 kmh. The tyre is cool in that speed compare with racing on the circuit. I suppose if you are worried we can stop 1-2 places on the way and look at the tyres. I am planning to ride on them.

They are road legal and meant to do some miles.

Hey remember when I have my slicks were new - remember I put more than 100km on them before going to the Sandown and Coleman had a look at them and said that they are still green and need a few laps to warm them up?

Remember I drive a convertible... They're all about noise. But if the tyre noise becomes too loud then all I need do is turn to Danielle and tell her the full cost of the day. Boy that will drown out any tire noise
