females and office thermostats... Seriously... you wear skimpy clothing and crank the temp to 76 because you are cold. STAHP. We men don't get to wear shorts to work and we actually have blood circulation. This. You can put on a sweater. I can't take off my shirt or pants. Always better to err on t...

No Check Engine Light? If something was really off I'd think it'd trip one.

Different subject, but when people say "and I" when referring to someone else (e.g. Will and I) trying to sound smart when it really should have been "and me." It makes me disproportionately angry. And it's not even that hard. Just take the other person's name out and if you would say I then say and...

Haha yes. I have checked my mirror many a time when a siren is used in a song.

Time for some upgraded motor mounts. Took away 95% of the wheel hop in both my SRT-4 and MS3.

I learned that lesson after cheaping out on my SRT-4's brakes once. Never again.

I had my MS3 back at the dealer within a week or two of buying it. It had a faulty gas cap that was triggering CELs. They replaced it quickly and I was on my way.

Lanier's Speed Shop in downtown C/S sells pure methanol. Pretty sure it was about $30 for 5 gallons but that was about 3 years ago. You have to bring your own container and they'll fill it from a barrel. It's way cheaper than buying pre-mixed stuff like at Snow Performance where they charge $36 for ...

It's definitely grimy for them to sit on the speed limit border like that, but if you were going 74 then you were speeding even for the 65. Not to be captain obvious or anything.

Insurance isn't going to help much when the engine comes crashing through into the cabin pushed by some SUV that didn't even get slowed down by that low bar. I'd say the extra weight is worth it if it saves your life.

Not trying to be a downer here, but we like having you around.

Will there be more to the rear frame than what is there? Looks like a rear ender could be pretty ugly. Or is the plan to only drive it on the track?

Oh so it's only going to be RWD? I was thinking it'd be AWD but I guess that wouldn't work as a mid-engine unless you turned the whole thing around backwards and got it to spin the other way, heh. Do you just cap off the rear input of the transmission then?
