Only issue with it was the fuel hose splitting open and it got fixed. Thanks for the heads up though.

looking forward to cruising down to Austin for the meet next month with all of you who can make it. Once it gets closer to the date we need to start thinking about times and a place to meet up.

Everyone still meeting up at Guitar Center Friday?

I plan on cleaning up the car tomorrow and bringing out the newest member of the family.

Gonna be a long day, I have to clay the car before I wax it. I also have to detail the engine bay, she's been sitting at the dealership for a while and got pretty dusty/dirty under the hood.

Thanks for directing me with the offer but I did find a bike within my budget didn't want to spend that much on a bike like that until I have some experience under my belt. I like going fast but not on a bike there is no protection as compared to a car. With my EF2 turbo coming in that is all I need for speed is my ride.

Hey, sound logic, no one can argue with that. Glad you found a bike more suitable though.


In other news, picked up my repaired wing from Kevin @Evolution Dynamics after my visit with Texas Track Works, I love it. Carbon Fiber makes me happy

Good to hear. I saw your pictures. I'd get rid of that toe. I'd have them set it to 0 all around.

It's seems fine in the rear when compared to factory
Toe-in mm (in) 3 ± 2 (0.12 ± 0.07)
Other than tire wear, which I'm expecting with another set of RS-3's, what are the downsides of the current toe setting and upsides of moving to 0.

Tire wear. As soft as the RS3s are you will kill them a lot sooner.
