On the track the car just feels natural. It has a few particularities, but it's a track car out of the box. Running the revs from 4500 to 8000 gear after gear is quite a feeling.

What's this business about DTRL hack? Should have just come to see me at Canadian Tire...
Thanks for the offer Adam, I actually took it to your CT for my safety inspection and the guy was great. Here's part of our interaction.

-the bilingual airbag sticker and child tether kit are in the glove compartment, right?
-Ummm, yup, they're there
- Perfect.

The DRL hack cost me about $5 and took 5 mins.

Ironic isn't it Chris, your vid won't play and gives the message "This vid contains content from SME and EMI, one or more of whom have blocked it in your country on copyright grounds"???
