You're a very good driver, don't need gauges, just feel and sound
Thanks Danko. I think I'm just going to leave mine until the spring and then drive it a bit and see how it feels. I'm guessing I'll most likely ditch the slider and just have it fixed before long. I like the flexibility of having the slider. It's good for 'tall' guys like us with long legs. But I'd rather be at the 'right' height. And thanks for the compliment but my abilities don't quite transcend to THAT level. (Thank goodness Harry's Lap timer has the shift warning flasher).

Invidia N1 sounds great but it's a little too loud for my neighbors. Will put back Blitz NUR-SPEC VS soon and sell the N1.

Got a new (to me) daily, a CPO 2015 Lexus IS250 AWD. Awesome little car. Test drove Mercedes C300 and IS won.

car felt great on Monday. Thanks for the new parts buddy. I was 2 seconds faster without making any damping adjustments. When is your first day with us?

So happy to hear my friend, you know how to use them
I'll see you early May at NJMP Lightning. Have to relearn the car since gutting, reinforcements, new seat...
