Grew up in SoCal, forgive my Kate Moss reference! Lived a few doors down from Tom and Nicole -- yeah, there was a marriage made in hell!

Okay, so where have you been all my life? LOL. It's not that I'm not happy, just not where'd I'd like to be. Yeah, definitely muscles weigh more than fat -- and I don't have a beer belly. You know, it's that 'I'm not in my 20's' thing' that most guys go through.

We better take this offline ... I just told some guy this isn't this isn't a dating BBS. LOL! Thanks for the encouragement, tho.

Great to see a woman on maxima.org!

 

Hey, we're making a connection here ... go away! You're not supposed to be reading this, it's private! ROFLMAO!

 

take up smoking, that'll keep the weight off haha.....

 

Oh, and to make this relevant to the .org, I have a Maxima. Anyone know how to get big dents/dings/scratches out of the roof? Don't ask ... And, NO 'Ding King' remarks, please.

 

Ugh, I do smoke ... any other good suggestions? Oh, I probably should ask ... smoking what?

 

Haha, that guy that thanked studlyman? That was hilarious I'll PM you......

 

Just rent one of those Porter buffers from Auto Zone (I think), or get one at Lowe's. It's great for detailing and it's supposed to do a great job, which reminds me that I need one too....

Staying ON TOPIC: Is it the overall weight that affects performance more than the wheel weight? Like, can 50-100lbs be easily offset by lighter-than-stock rims?

 

i'm 6 foot and 155, i've got a friend, who is 6'3" and 140, and he eats a crap load, i swear he will eat a box of pop tarts in the morning and then go out to breakfast and eat 3 pancakes, and is stil;l hungry come 12 o clock. His brother is freakishly small. He is 6 1 and weighs 125. and he too eats alot. but he bikes hundreds of miles a week so...

 

Yeah, I think I need to buy one of those. I seem to have a knack for denting/scratching the crap out of my car.

Wheel weight (or unsprung weight, no sexual reference intended), makes a significant difference in performance. 50-100lbs of unsprung weight can make a huge difference depending on the car/driver/hp, etc. The more you reduce your wheel radius, the faster you get. Messes with your speedometer, tho.

Overall, weight definitely affects performance, too. (Going to the Atkin's website now ...)

 

Yeah, that's like me. I eat a lot but don't gain at all.

 

Damn! Even you're pretty skinny! Tell your friend to eat more, more, more!!! I used to be like that, but for some reason when I turned 30, everything changed. I was 6'1" and 130lbs. I started working out and eating right and the weight went up. Family metabolisms are probaby the reason. My mom is 55 and still skinny. WTF didn't she pass that on to me??? He/they ain't gonna get no girls if they're bigger than him.

 

Haha. I have a friend who's the most severe case I've seen ever... if he skips a meal, he has lost weight the next morning.

 

yea i am pretty skinny, but not anorexic lookin like those two, i eat alot myself, i can easily destroy a medium pizza by myself, and i've been known to take apart a large one as well

 

You talking about me? lol

 

Naaah, she's talkin' about me ... LOL

 

daaaamn i got ripped on for being crazy small . and for the record im still in my teens and a wrestler (so i do have enough strength to handle the max hah). you should feel bad for the guy who gets beat by the kid who looks 12 in a family sedan
