    According to the rules, any road with 80kmh or less speed limits can have radar installed.

    Not sure it will be that widespread - as much it's called a cash cow, the cameras (speed and red light versions) are pretty expensive plus there's the maintenance, etc. I was asking our mayor (Caledon and Region of Peel) last winter about transport trucks speeding and running red lights and all the accidents on Highway 50 at certain intersections, and they have been waffling about the cost of the cameras, ROI, and funding them (I think they have to allocate the capex but the ticketing revenue goes somewhere else (it's all accounting entries but apparently it's not as simple as co-mingling capex/revenue funds as it would appear. It is probably easier for them to use a "save the children" argument (not that this is a bad thing since there are people who still speed through school zones) to justify the capex approval in the municipal property tax increase.

    Totally unfamiliar with the stages but are those the 272 duration ones aka the 272AH? If so I thought they were way more max effort NA than boost suited. Also they require the heads to come off and pistons be notched/replaced for PTV clearance. Also they have like a 112 LSA which is what gives you the lopey idle but less than ideal for boost. I think the MHS max effort SC cam is around a 115LSA

    Think we had this discussion before, selecting cams based on Youtube videos is like selecting your wife off Instagram posts. Ya it's gonna seem awesome at first but in long run all you're going to have left is less money and more headaches. I'd talk to one of our sponsor shops about your goals and budget and let them build you a package that can meet them.

    Am I too easy?

    I sold a set of tires on Facebook. I said in the ads first line that the treads had cracks in them. Then I took pics of the cracks on every tire and put them in the ad. Only asking $100 for 4 LT snow tires with 75% tread. I figure they are good for farm use or something like that. When the guy showed up I showed him the cracks. He still bought them. That was Sunday. Today he messages me saying the tires are cracked and no one will install them. He wants his money back.

    Not sure how this is my problem but I sent him his money and told him to toss the tires.

    Seems old blade really had seen better days, was worn within 1/4" - 3/8" of the mounting bolt holes. LOL
