I'm sure auto-X is more fun though.
Nice to see that a decent discussion can happen out here when there are two conflicting opinions....

Ya... I'm trying to sound all technical to defend my point.. but.. ya, that's about it. :fawk:
I gotta try auto-x sometime... now that I'll have some nice 16s instead of those MONSTER heavy 17s.
