I hit a BIGASS pothole just now, on Palisades Parkway South on the right lane.

It was actually a crack, about 4 inch of difference between the two roads.

Thank god the stock rims are JAWA approved (read:unbreakable).

LOL nobody is gonna roll on winter rims to the biggest meet, lol. Sorta defeats the purpose of showing off your car.


All you have to do when you enter the park is drive at like 5mph and your car and wheels will be perfectly safe. Thats what all 30+ cars did at the previous meets.

The park itself is not the problem.

The problem lies in the volatile nature of the Palisades Parkway.


Gosh I hate that road, but I drive on it every day. It's not even smooth tarmac so it beats the living shit out of your suspension, not to mention the hilly-ness sucks gas like no other.

A cop can roll by and check my tags, but if I am backed in (which will happen) he/she is SOL cause I don't have a front plate, Delaware FTW!!!!!

There's a blue 05 Evo 8, 08 Scion TC, and possibly one or two Sentra SE-R's coming along with me.

They're all from Highland Falls/Fort Montgomery.
