it will be good enough to hold the car inside the garage and provide

fun once there is ice and snow on the road so it can trade places with the moped.

I am not working with any specific database software or program

basically we are supposed to design and implement a database from the ground up, I am 6 chapters away from taking the final and still have to write up 3 documents.

We are using a book by Plew who teaches at Indiana Univ or something. The book is one of the worst books for this class. Everything is repetitive with the author and the it doesnt help that the class is online.

from a design, normalization, implementation, etc. standpoint i think I could help you a lot

but I can't stand having to adhere to silly books so maybe I might not be of help?

Agree. Very little gain from a rear brake upgrade.

I went ECS-tuning upgraded S4 rears and think they are well balanced with the Porsche fronts.

80% of those saying it's not worth it have no first hand knowledge because they haven't done it. The change from 245 X 10 to 308 X 22 in rears are noticeable.
