Yeah I had one of the yellow special editions bought out from under me and ended up with red. I would have had the one color more visible to humans than red haha!

I wish the car was black. I may try one of those dipyourcar.com kits. My brother has serious paint knowledge (I can't afford him lmao - aerospace composite finishing shop time is steep) but I'd at least get advice. And since it's designed to be reversible like a wrap there's only a 50% chance it ruins the thin-ass paint.

What are people's opinions on autocross? Likes and dislikes? Which clubs do you run with and why?

Off topic...Hope this doesn't create lot's of feedback, trying to find where TRL & Neal went to. I know some have had riffs, however besides myself Neal is the only other person I let work on my car...Much thanks
On another note, does or will NorCal ever go back to having the summer kickoff ? Always a great time...Thanks again Gents

Neal had to close TRL as he was physically unable to keep working on cars himself. He however does own Contra Costa Auto Service in the same location (expanded and takes up the entire building now I think lol). It isn't performance oriented but for any regular maintenance still highly recommended and he can still bring his vast FT86 knowledge if you have having a weird issue you need to troubleshoot.
