Michelin Distributor??

[cardzilla]

Ok, I've done a search and come up with nothing concrete on my question so here's where I need help.

I've always raced 600 supersport bikes and always used Dunlops.  I have nothing but good things to say about Steve Brubaker and the gang at RTS as well as Dunlop tires.  However, I'm now going to be racing a Superbike (R1) with 16.5" rims.  The logical choice in this department would be Michelin so I want to test them head to head for a while to see which I like better.  What I need is the Michelin equivalent to Steve Brubaker to talk to and to order tires from... who would that be?  Is there more than one?  Thanks in advance.

I'm in Jacksonville, FL.  Is there a national level dealer or only regional?  I just want a direct line on current technology.  If all they have are the regional dealers that's ok since Frank is a great guy.  He actually taught me when I was a noob in 93.

Ok, I've stared at it for 10 minutes and I'm still not figuring it out... what does OPSLQ stand for?

If it is related to "wife", she's been broken off so no worries  ;D

I am sorry to hear that.

It's an old IRS term for "Other Person Sharing Living Quarters. ;)

It's a catch all for nearly any shared living arrangement instead og significant other

[cardzilla]

AAAAAAAAAaahhh, I see.  I actually got "Other Person" so I figured that's what it meant.  I am so much happier now, my only regret is not doing it MUCH sooner... like BEFORE Daytona  >:(
