What a bitch. I'm outside of Vegas at Spring Mountain hauling a$$ in a new Corvette. 1st day today just got out on the track this afternoon. Did a bunch of cool exercises earlier. Tomorrow would of been a full track day,,, under instructors guidance,, but we're moving pretty good. Awesome place and track.
I'm coming home tonight on the red eye to prep for fricking Irma. What a PITA. Currently expected to make landfall about 80 miles from me. Way too close,,, the wife is freaking out.

How'd you know?? Only bought two and I tore up three bits in a matter of minutes. If the braces in the trans tunnel need to come out I may look for a little bit better bit. No pun intended

Sorry I didn't but sniped the below picture from EBAY to give you an idea. The left side (closer to the middle of the car can't be trimmed as there is a large plate forming the brace for the bolt. The MC box flushes right up against it. The right side is a bit different,, I cut the brace back to right against the bolt to get the 2" width I needed. Top to bottom is tight but didn't need to cut anything back.
The box the MC sits in is made from 1/8" x 2" stock I got at Home Depot. It's 2" across and recessed in 2" deep. About 4" (plus a little tall).
