Repair-It

Oh man... WTF!!! must be a rounding thing...

Good catch - Fixed:

It is in a loop to draw the tick marks and calculating the label number based on the angle. It was a rounding problem.

Bob will tell you that time I set the cruise in my Caprice to 109 for like 20 minutes.

Ha! Provided for your convenience if you ever decide to drive north of Bangor on I-95. BTW, the speed limit is 75 there now.

Was it 20 minutes?

I recall it being a long time. Setting the cruise at 109 for 20 minutes would cover 36 miles, which I guess is possible given how vast and empty it is up there. I still miss driving in that part of Maine. The roads weren't great from a technical standpoint, but I love how desolate it was.

I should buy these:

Ok fine, I don't have the car yet... Whatever. Not going to lie. I looked into if I could put these on the Mazda3 in the mean time. Looks like I can't...

Go buy that right now unless it has major issues. Probably a 5.3. Offer $3500 w/o wheels?
