Is it a standard setup with the more -ve camber on the rear than the front?

I also stuck Mini GaleForce in the passenger seat and let him start the car (with me in the driver seat obviously). Then Daddy revved it up a few times.... Yep, he's going to be a car guy... Big smile on his face!

My previous line of work afforded me the opportunity to drive many exotics (from the parking lot to the garage )... Just never had the chance to "rip it" in them.

I used to valet for a very exclusive private golf club in NJ. I got to PARK a lot of nice stuff too. Most memorable were the Viper and the Bentley I drove that had 2inch magenta shag carpet. Ill never forget getting in that Bentley and being like WTFFFFFFFFFFFFF

The 5.0, Mr. Alcheng. The S2000's seats are pretty well bolstered so no need to spend money there.

Oh, and best thing about that GT Dream Cars - The Ultiamte Driving Experience, Drivers Unite! place is that I may have a connection to get in for a discounted price of only $99. One of our hot tub customers at work told the hot tub tech about the place today. He is a member. Seems he said he may be able to hook us up

Have you ran into a strange series of events that took you back in time while working on one yet?
