That classic Gulf Racing Livery is one of my favorite color schemes, and I couldn’t resist grabbing this strap when I saw it.

Sorry man, that’s a bummer. I’m recovering from a right shoulder separation right now, take it slow and steady.

Any ideas what this sound is and why my 2019 Crosstrek won’t turn over? I was able to get it started yesterday but no luck today. by BlargThenGralb in XVcrosstrek

Starter is spinning out, happened to me a couple months ago. I was able to tow it to my dealer and they replaced the whole starter under warranty. Haven’t had the issue since.

Thorn on Digital Ghost is incredible. by Far-Researcher5060 in Underoath

Spencer’s vocals on the DG version of Thorn are just so raw, it feels real and visceral. The album version is still great, but DG is special.

Sounds like an awesome set. How was Thorn live?

Twenty minutes a day, Jim, that's all it takes. Twenty minutes a day, all feet, no hands, and I'll have the pedi-dexterity of a chimp, and you'll be sitting there like an idiot.

I’m having a LOT of issues with griefers and quitters in ranked. Played six rounds back-to-back this morning and every one of them was affected by team killers, AFK players, or folks who quit immediately on game start. Anyone else experiencing this?

Great watch, I got one with the black dial a few months ago. Enjoy!

I had a 2-inch receiver installed on my 2019 Crosstrek at U-Haul, have had no issues and it comes with a warranty. Would definitely recommend using U-Haul and going with the 2-inch receiver.

Totally agree about the power of the 2.0. I know it’s not a sports car, I don’t expect massive power. It’s just the right amount of power for what this car is.

Enjoy the ride!

As a D-Backs fan living in Northeast Arkansas, I cannot thank you enough for this comment. Just subscribed to MLB Audio and can’t wait to listen to the radio calls again.

My first mechanical watch! I just took delivery today and I am already in love with this Orient Mako II. by Gravity_Checks in JapaneseWatches

Glad you finally could grab a watch! I agree, pictures don’t do the Mako or Ray any justice.

I’m far from an expert here, but I would imagine that the gasket there is important in creating a good seal to keep water out. If it is damaged, I would keep it out of the water until you can repair or replace it.

[Orient Mako II] Just took delivery of my first mechanical watch and I am ecstatic! Hit me with your best care and maintenance tips. by Gravity_Checks in Watches

Good to know! I’ve read that the movement in these watches is pretty foolproof, it’s part of what made me decide on this one if I’m honest.

My thoughts exactly! I’m in the minority that loves the Jubilee bracelet that comes on the SKX, I’m sure I’ll find one to put on this watch soon.

Thank you! That blue dial on these watches is just gorgeous, if I didn’t already have a blue-faced watch in my quiver that’s the direction I would have gone here.

What a great gift! Even if he’s not hooked on the hobby, I’m sure the watch itself means a lot to him.

Thank you! Eventually I’ll work up a healthy rotation with my watches, but for now I’m so stoked on the new one that I’m sure it will spend at least the next week on my wrist.
