Went to take it for a test ride real quick, heard a bad grinding sound. Once the car was in turns and momentum shifted the weight, it was rubbing against the caliper. I have informed TR, still waiting for a response.

Nice vid from the snow . . . hard to beat AWD in slippery conditions, though.

Yeah, I've emailed the guy 3 times and the emails aren't getting through to him...

So I dunno what's going on.


But yeah, that's why I picked them.
