Brock... I'm anal... I didn't think there was anyone worse than me.. but you fucking win!

The mustang gods are trying to tell you that it's just a stupid car and that you need to drive it more. Who are you saving it for? What if you die tomorrow? Would you rather drive La Bamba or cruise in your poopstang?

If you insist on never driving it, get 4 pieces of scrap carpet and park on them, people do this when the put their cars into long term storage.

When my race Hoosiers are on the car and you come in and park, they get flat as shit... then fit first 2 laps it feels like the car is going to shake apart... then they heat up and all is well.

haha, that made me laugh. Thanks Brian.

Well... it's good to hear people experiencing the same thing as me. I had GS-D3s on my GT, but back then the GT was the daily driver and it never sat. If anyone else has any stories, please share.

It's your car telling you it wants itself driven more often
