A little non-FRS/BRZ video action!

This is my time attack laps from this past weekends' Modified Magazine Street Car Shootout!

You should wait and get the 500 when it comes out if it isn't already?

I read they will offer a good deal to those that have the 400 when the 500 comes out. Since the speakers are upgraded I believe it requires to swap the dsp amp out with one that has been tuned for their new setup.

have to be careful with used coilovers they are easy to blow out. But Megan are entry level and any really serious racer is going to want more camber so it is most likely people going for an upgrade I have no complaints with mine they do the job but if I was to build the car up for just track use I would get the track series. Also people like to be exclusive and I was the 509th order for these months ago so everyone and their brother has a set of these.

just met a downtown BRZ owner

Nice guy, John, with a WRB Limited. Very clean and all stock (the car not John lol).

He says he knows Gem.

Also someone in the 'hood just got a red FR-S that still has the paper tags on it.

I just stumbled upon this article. It refers to small engines, but that's considering E10; I'm not sure if going up to E85 would make a difference on bigger engines.

Not sure if that applies to us but more of small "dumb" engines like lawn mowers and go carts. Since tunes on our cars are adjusting for the afr we should be fine. I think these smaller motors are just not tuned to run the ethanol so they are running leaner and hotter then failing early.
