Is that 385 right? or a typo? But if it isnt impressive keep up the good work.

werd. i played hockey for almost 12 years and had a catastrophic knee injury. reinjured it after that. i can't really run, can't do any high-impact exercise. i walk alot, but i need to get my knee scoped again...some days it feels like someone slowly pushing an exacto knife through my knee, then somedays it's just fine.

i weighed 190 at 6' when i played.

Oh i hear you, one knee feels like someone is pulling tape off of my skin from the inside, the other feels.. well you know when you kneel down and kneel on a rock? Yeah like that, cept im not kneeling

. Specially with this weather, temp swings kill me.

Ive been having good luck with raquetball and that eliptical thing

akaryrye 03-12-2007 01:26 AM

hahaha this thread reminds me of myself and my friend dre on here we were talkin about this last week. I'm 6'2 200lbs myself.. hes 6'2 240 lbs I think.

akaryrye 03-12-2007 02:49 AM

Being heavier just means that I need to learn to drive a little bit better than my lightweight opponant! I even autocross with a co-pilot since im just driving for fun right now.

Yup I've gained 15-20 lbs within the past 11 months after destroying my knee & leg. I've just gotten to the point where I can take my dog on short walks around the neighborhood. No jogging yet, and certainly no sports. Sucks.

Gotta say, I'm surprised at how many big muthas there are on this forum driving these tiny cars. You guys make hustler a flyweight.

I still exercise regularly - it's the only thing that keeps me sane sitting behind a computer for a living.

Rican had me beet when he was a kid, but he probably wasn't driving a Miata then. Currently I'm 299. Just 1 Twinkie away from 300.

Are some of you guys running different spring rates on the driver side?
