b.) Why Virginia?

MTPOCKITS sells Jewels, and VPT has better prices on Comets then the stealership, unless you have some hookups over there.

This is the only online forum where members refer to each other by their real names. I find it quite disturbing.

Why is that "disturbing" Jeff?

Also, If I Recall Correctly, the Comet + tire = 42lbs, but it's right around there if I am off...
