If you want cheap, for my first track day I just signed up for the slow/beginner group at one of the McBride Cycle Shannonville days (Fabi track) and rode my own bike. I already had a 2-piece leather suit that the seller threw in with one of my previous bikes, and a friend lent me a back...

That was my initial thought - 10 days before Christmas Eve. Gotta be a pretty big procrastinator if you're waiting until then to start ALL of your shopping for the kids, AND for a Christmas tree.

Wait, this isn't a done deal? The news is reporting it as if it is.

No HST if we do it between Dec 14 - Feb 15: https://www.gtamotorcycle.com/xf/threads/gst-hst-holiday.230993/

If you position the casters in the proper direction and make sure there's no debris blocking the wheels, the jack should get drawn in rather than it pulling the car over. I sometimes push on my jack as I'm pumping the handle on my rough surfaced driveway if I think it needs help, but never a...

Nice find. Pretty similar specs as my Trak-Jax, but for half the price. The ghetto method I used to use was to just drive up on a couple of 2x4's.

I got a set of those roller bearing wheels. Are the zip ties enough to keep them in place? I'm sure that part of the reason mine are still in the boxes is because of this thread on GJ. Apparently has happened to others as well, but in the end it turned out to be combination of the QJ being on a...

I don't know about current prices, but in the past,they have gone on clearance at Costco annually for under $1000 IIRC. Check RFD for the latest trends.

I also have those low Race Ramps in the video, and use them for exactly the same reason, because my car is too low to go up regular ramps. They come up on Amazon Warehouse deals as used items for $100, which sounds pricey, but are worth every penny to me.

I have a set of QuickJacks still in the boxes. I bought it back when my garage got (more) cluttered but before I reorganized the garage to the point where it was easy to get cars on the lift. I wouldn't use it for seasonal swaps - it's faster to just jack up the car, especially if you jack up by...

I couldn't resist (pun subconsciously induced) clicking on this link after watching the one above:

Just as I'm wondering how different that arrest would have been if the suspect were black, he starts joking "I can't breath, I can't breathe, I can't breathe" as his hands are being softly cuffed. Unbelieveable!

This is my go-to for stuck oil filters. I’ve had it for ages: https://www.princessauto.com/en/2-1-2-to-3-7-8-in-3-jaw-oil-filter-wrench/product/PA0009079443 I don’t really understand the bad reviews, but it sounds like many of them are trying to use it to install a filter when it’s really only...

Do you set your garage to a constant temperature, and did you notice much increase in your gas bill for the months it's running?

LOL, and as usualy, a handful of idiots ruining it for the rest:

This YouTuber has a few videos on it. What I got out of watching a few of them was that it's best to install the heater itself indoors and route the intake and exhaust outdoors (much like a furnace). This way you get the heat not only out of the output, but also from the exhaust:
