I too, can attest as to just how much fun they are; this was the end of the assembly line Michelins... I had already pulled the caps because even then I didn't trust most techs to not chip the paint on the wheel... I was by myself on the way to the shop and thought, why not? After I saw the road behind me, I doubled back, jumped out and snapped this photo - with a film camera! It was not very old here, but you can see that it was already being rode hard as they say.
It's older now than my Camaro was when I restored it... this car's time will come... and yeah, I tell everyone it's not for sale; I'll get to it someday...
Cheers, and thanks for triggering some fun memories!
