I like the black DC sport on the 3rd page. BTW resonated tips will change the tone of your exhaust. I call them fart cans, but some can sound good.

On Dec. 1st, AZSolo is offering is annual driving school. The cost is $65 for SCCA members and $70 for non-members (weekend membership costs $5). It is a non-competitive environment with experienced instructors. Lunch is included, and during the lunch break student can ride with the instructors while they drive their own cars.

This is a great opportunity. The first three years I autoxed, I took advantage of the school.

The link is for event info and forms. All entries are prepaid by snailmail.

I was kinda in the zone...trying to get back home to get more sleeps, and happy to be back in my own car. I have something new to listen for now, the service guys say that on the test drive they noticed a "noise" coming from the "front end." but couldn't tell me anything else about it (like what kind of noise, where on the front end, or when this noise happens). So if I hear it, I'll take it back. Hopefully this next thing is covered by warranty.

And thank you, I like the drop too, not too little, not too much. the ride is great now too, though on some of our roads (Grant) it's extra bumpy. I saw a silver FRS on speedway near the college, but didn't see anyone on the registration thread with one, so he must not be here.
