Default My wife got "Wife of the year" trophy

She supports my hobbies (cars and drums) and she decided to give me a gift for our wedding anniversary.

To my surprise she gave me a "One day High Performance" class and track at the Pro Performance Rancing School. That was cool, she figured I'm a big fan of Formula One and twisty road races. I have to get the car all ready to go (tires, brakes, tune, etc).

So because of the awesome full day gift she gets the "Wife of the year" trophy.

It's true, I've got the greenstuff pads in, but the stock rotors are kinda old. The front tires look better than the rear ones but you're right, I think I'm good to go...

After 26 years, my wife only shops at Snap-On for all my gifts. :-)

Hey I have that same gift certificate, Nick! We should go together... but just watch out for me, because I'll be racing around with a locker... makes my car real happy in the rear.

It does sound like you have an awesome wife. And BTW my wife just gives me the checkbook when it's gift time. I have a knack for picking out just exactly what I want

You'll love it! I am 100% more confident with my car now as opposed to before I went. Your wife has great gift sense.

Sounds like your wife is pretty cool Nick! I really want to take that class someday. All I can get out of my old lady is a blower & a stroker motor.

That's really cool

I gave my wife that award earlier this year when I swapped engines in my truck, and then she actually helped me install it.

Cars and drums? Sounds like a man of my hobbies as well. What kinda kit do you have, cars too

Oh and our wifes must be sisters, lol. Awesome gift by her.

I still would need some tires I think, as mine aren't doing so hot... they're kinda low on tread, and if there's rain that day, I'd be royally screwed.
