    Rear View Mirror position

    Not that I am overly concerned about what is behind me as I am not one to live in the past.... As we have all noticed the rear veiw mirror is substantially blocked by the rear of the car. I am going to be adding the Autoform rollbar which adds a bar between the two roll hoops futher blocking...

    short cool gingerman video clip

    Nice Catch Video This is short clip of me at Gingerman. As you will notice I am pretty sideways and have to apply some serious opposite lock at about 80mph. That one turn in the middle is a mother... The back end kept getting light on me as I would go into trailing throttle oversteer. Your...

    Lower rear end gear ratio question??

    Has anyone played around with slightly shorter rear end gearing... Given this beast does 60 in 1st 88 in second 124 in third, and 157 in fourth, I have to believe that the 0-150 times would be improved bigtime. Even if you drop the gears down by a modest 10%, you are still doing roughly 54 in...

    Short Throw Shift Linkage??? Lil Help...

    One area that could improve track times by at least a couple of seconds would be a shorter shift linkage. Given you upshift about 30 times around the track, the stock shift linkage make for long throws... You could probably cut about .2 seconds off each shift and your talking about a 6 second...

    I was wondering why we had to go invade Iraq so quickly. I was looking to read between lines on why and the timimg. IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW..... The whole conspiracy theory about it being about the oil because of Americas love of SUV's was only partially correct... They had to invade quickly...

    2000 RPM\'s in 1st gear... Does anyone have an issue with trying to drive along at around 2K on the tach in 1st gear and the engine rpms "bounce" back and forth between 2300 and 1900. I swear I am dead even on the gas pedal yet I get a little "rubber-necking" everytime I drive down my street...

    Trunk Kit and Shifter

    I recently installed the Trunk Carpet Kit and the short throw shifter. Both Recommended. The carpet kit makes the trunk look a little more "finished". I am not sure why they didn't do it in the first place... Weight? Don't think so. The short throw shifter is great as your hand is on the...
