GSX as in Suzuki GSX-R? Or GSX as in Eclipse GSX? Cause Eclipse GSX's are AWD too. And I don't see you beating a bike unless you are very heavily modded. If you are beating bikes then props to you and I'm sorry for questioning it, heh.

That makes more sense. And 6 days isn't bad, given the scope of the problem. Warranty or not?

Yeah, you did. With all those mods, I'm surprised they honored it.

When I'm on my bike, those stupid Civics try to race me all the time... some of them are turbo'ed but they're still stupid for even trying. Unless their Civics can run 0-60 ~ 3sec and 1/4 in ~10-11 sec (sea level) they must me on crack.

Hahaha, I've race some of those "turbo'd" civics, they're slow as hell!! I laugh at them and tell them my car is stock (wtf do they know about mazda's let alone a speed) and I weigh twice as much as them...watching their face turn bright red and the profanity that spews is priceless!!!

Had a run in with a BMW Z3 (not sure what year). He was trying to turn left onto HWY 115 from Lake and moved from the far right lane all the way into the turn lane cutting me and another vehicle off. I was pretty angry!

I followed him up the hill to the Cheyenne Mountain Light and when it turned green (both up front), he gunned it. I did as well; we were pretty even (his front was at my reay quarter panel 1st through 2d) until I shifted to 3d, then I pulled more than a car ahead of him.

I hope I hurt his feelings!!!! Rich Broadmoor Man in his BMW 0 - RX8 1 :lol:
