Also pretty sweet that I just picked up Hyman. What an excellent sleeper pick.

we bought a house in febuary. the garage is carpeted, and has lots and lots of shelves.

i'm doing a P&L built engine and turbo kit, and need a trans that'll be able to handle the 500+ i'm looking to make with E85. (sold my condo, so i'll have a bit of money soon)

Probably doesn't help that the PNW doesn't have a hockey team.

"On March 26, 1917, the Seattle Metropolitans win the Stanley Cup and become the world champions of hockey. In Seattle, at The Arena, the Mets, coached by Pete Muldoon, defeat defending champion Les Canadiens of Montreal three games to one".

Maybe I should update my news feed ......??

The radio reception was sort of static-ie, but none the less, the game was exciting.

Transmission is fine with a couple gear tweaks... Velox/Versus 3 and 4, some day, or...

Pro tip... Back the twin in. Lots more room between the cars that way.

Space? Preventing your wife from opening the door after the scare tactics commonly known as driving?

These doors are wide. Kick passengers out early, and back in with the passenger side against the wall. Lots more room on the drivers side now for both vehicles.

can't. there's a part of the garage that's been taken up by a hot water heater room. i have my driver side mirror folded in so i can even open the door.

Won't work for my situation. I already have to load and unload passengers up on the street due to steep crest in the driveway.

Besides, backing in is not a good option for me ....... 90% of all my accidents over the years, have occurred when I was backing up ......

Also, no way mrs humfrz will get in my FR-S, until I have cleared the garage, hit the driveway crest at a 45 degree angle (so it don't scrape) missed the tree on the way back and not backed into any moving traffic nor any cars parked across the street. .......
