Edit: Read back and noticed you are familiar with MCO and such, so I'll leave this info here for others:

Another choice is MCO. See www.mco.org
We provide full instruction for any new folks until they are signed off. Great value at $350/day. Next event is July 21, lots of time for your break-in period.
No offense taken! I've lapped with Greg's group at Calabogie before but it's been a while and this is the first time with the BRZ. My previous car was awd so I'll have to unlearn any bad habits. I can longer just floor it at any point during a corner and let the diffs sort it out.

Anyway, I've signed up for this Friday.

Sorry to side track the thread.

Just a quick question, has anyone had any experience with too dark tint in Ottawa/Ontario? I by no mean want to go like limo black out but I would like something on the dark side... No pun intended :p

I personally wouldn't go lower than 20% even that is tough to see through at night on dark streets

The OPP around here seems pretty laid back for mods and all that. I live downtown and pass by parliament everyday with my HKS exhaust and nobody has given me trouble yet.
Although I don't have tinted windows, so the point is moot. Hep.

Who's going to MCO on July 21st?
I just found out my wheels won't be ready for two months, so my car is still driveable for at least that amount of time

Also, does this stop shifter wobble under hard acceleration?

I have the Whiteline shifter bushing waiting to be installed. I'll report back once it's in.
