Reminds me of the time I went hand-grabbing (noodling) for catfish, down in Mississippi. Yep, took me drinking a pint of warm whisky before I got up enough courage to slip out of that boat and stick my hands into holes along the river bank - but, I've told this story before -

Cusco gas pedal. Should help with heel/toe. It's funny how flash makes it look black.
Install wasn't that bad, but need to take a shower now. Instructions said "This product is designed for use in Japan only. It must not be used in any other country"

Over the last 2 days, I've had new brakes, coilovers, LCAs, sway bars, clutch, and other odds and ends installed at Hawk Speed and Custom.

Had a little set back on Saturday going from a metric FRS to an English Wilwood bbk. This and a couple of other small supply issues pushed the completion date to next Thursday. Other than that, the parts are finding their way in.

DANG, I didn't know they had pig farms in Mountain View -
![]() Reminds me of back-in-the-day, in the old school building, in our pig farming community, that the teacher would make us farm boys sit on the side of the classroom that didn't have the radiators. Why? Because we usually had some pig shit on our shoes or splashed on our pants, from slopping the hogs that morning, that would stink if they got warm - ![]() humfrz |

Spent some money on the car today. Beatsonic Shark Fin, USDM Toms Red Tail lights, and a IKON Motorsports TRD style tail paint matched.

Well, I finished waxing my FR-S today. It took a week, but I just don't rush through those kinds of things. The difference between this year and last year is that this year, I had to draw a picture of my car on the garage wall, and X off the sections in the picture that I waxed - so I could keep track. Yep, one panel a day (two on Saturday).
I drove it up to the Jack-in-the-box at noon to get me a hot, store bought, breakfast sandwich. The gal at the drive thru was impressed. I did notice it went a bit faster because it was slicker moving through the air, but it was a bit slower coming off the line because of the extra weight of the wax - ![]() humfrz |

Ordered a Cusco Sport leather steering wheel. Can't wait to toss that slimy OEM wheel that feels like it's wrapped with Scotch tape and scratches almost every time I touch it.
