Damn all thought sound like good ideas. I have most of that stuff on my wish list at Z1 along with about 15 other things. And since I'm going to try to do most of the work myself the bench marks are going to be a SC kit and rims. Most of everything else is going to be little at a time. And I don't think I'm going to do much aesthetics. Maybe some black accents here and there but nothing that will break the bank.

I used to want a short shifter but realized I have no reason for one. I think the only place they benefit you would be at the drag strip.

I agree, I think the shifter is short enough stock in my opinion. And like Tigger was saying it sounds like a pain to get used to for such little benefit.

If I had a different shift knob, then yes it would be short enough. But with the stock shift knob a short shifter would be the perfect throw. It's not really a pain at all. I've made the mistake of 4th to 2nd with my shifter now... so it's not the short shifter causing that. It would probably have happened anyway. I mean to each their own, but it's definitely something that once you have it, you'll apreciate it.

We all know how good you are at shifting!

Sorry I couldn't not say it. It's to easy.

I was referring back to when he stalled his car at the light. And there is nothing wrong with a little bit of man love here and there. You forget I was a MM.

If you plan on putting some track time in next season let me know. I plan on going to every event I can afford to go to. I did VIR and Summit Point this past year.

No plans as of yet. Might try to install those pipes. Other than that... Dunno. What's up?

Busy Friday night and I have a 10am tee time on Saturday. But other than that wherever the wind/3.7L V6 takes me.
