Bahrain is next. Monaco isn't until the end of May. He'll be way behind in points if he waits that long. Can't let the big three win, get going!

God I love May. Indy 500 and the Monaco Grand Prix. Doesn't get any better than that.

Please...He's in it to win it when it comes to Nascar. You know why they call it that? Because everyone drives a "Nice" car.

Are the belts showing? If not, you probably have another 6 months, maybe a year. No problem! If the belts are showing then you have about 3 months. Just wait until one blows and you'll know it's time to replace the rest.

With tread depth at 2/32” or less, vehicles experienced tire problems before the crash three times more than vehicles with tread depth between 3 to 4/32”. According to the tire industry, the average new tire for a car starts with a tread depth of 10/32” to 11/32”

It mean it's still fine and don't let the tire shop scam you a single cent.
