ih8vtec13 Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 yeah It could be me, I live over near the Pine so I am usualy a block or 2 off it. BTW does that GT have bronze 18's? Well mine are back to stock wheels but wrapped in 225/45/17 Nokian WRs. Great tires BTW they are great in snow and as you saw they have good performance too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well mine are back to stock wheels but wrapped in 225/45/17 Nokian WRs. Great tires BTW they are great in snow and as you saw they have good performance too Yep, that's you i see every morning. I live off of Morris Park Ave. & White Plain Rd. I went from the stock 18" on the Spec.B wheels to 17X8 OZ Ultraleggera in Matte Graphite Silver ( http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v511/MacR32/oz_ultraleggera.jpg ) on Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position 225/45, Pothole in the City where killing my 18" wheels. No need for winter tires, I have a FXT with winter tires I'll be using whenever it snows. Maybe we can get together and go up to Bear Mountain one day, I'm up there every other week having fun tearing up the (twisty) roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRAC3 Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Tonight on the Merritt, around 6 pm, from the NY state line till I lost sight at exit 34. Black sedan, yellow fogs, HID, mild tint...

andrewsalinger Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 huge warning to all merritt pkwy drivers!! the staties have finally decided to seriously patrol the merritt. i drive it every day and in the last week, they have stepped up enforcement between exits 39 and 48. i saw over 10 staties on my drive home with 3-4 of them gunning off the road. i came so close to getting a ticket tonight. luckily, there was a volvo wagon who was speeding in front of me and i sensed there was a cop around the area and i slowed down while he didn't. needless to say, the volvo is hating me now:icon_mrgr what type of radar do they use? my passport didn't even go off:icon_conf for the next few days/weeks gotta be a boyscout on my commute! I typically go 75-80, I guess this means no more 140 mph on the merrit ? ouch and now that I am stage two I was going to beat my previous speed once i got a clear road day ....

(n/b or s/b) the trick to top speed is having another driver scout the road and relay on a cell or a moto radio... I'm also in stamford and looking forward to high speed runs on the merrit!

bluechipbmw Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 thanks for the heads up! i take hutch to the merrit up to exit 40b and rarely see any but i will slow it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewsalinger Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 I have rarely seen staties there either except in rare cases where there are accidents etc, or a reason for them to be on the road. I think in general, it is just hard for them to be pulling people over from 38 through 34. This also happens to fall in my favor for my experiments .

How come I hardly see any LGTs on the Merrit? It is a blast to drive on that road. I spotted ooooahman the other day but he knows it. Yo your ride looks better than last time.

lhsa Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 ^ i do see a number of legacies and outbacks on the merritt. too bad they are all non-turbos driven by middle aged folks! the merritt does rock, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You came across the TZ with me & went all the way down 287 but you got on the hutch & I got on the merrit. Anyone here? I also saw that black wagon in nyack again with the chrome dipped stock wheels. I've gotten no response on here though so next time I'm leaving a note on the car so they get on this site already. "Barack Obama, mothaf#%@a! Barack Obama!

He must have seen my scoop (despite both his and my grey hairs lhsa:icon_mrgr), pulled up behind me, came right up on my tail - read my Boxer Power LegacyGT.com plate frame and then it was punch out and follow the leader time!
