My daughter asked me to take her to school in the “silver racecar” today so, naturally I obliged...

Then continued my drive on 9/11 🙂

My son (two and half years old) calls my car the "vroom vroom cah" and will often specifically request we take it out. I'm usually happy to oblige.

Yea, it's not a hard sell for me either. I'm assuming you are using the front seatbelt to hold the carseat in place but I always found that it was a little shaky. Are you doing anything else to make it more stable up there?

Correct, I use the seatbelt. Once I run the seatbelt through the back of the seat I cinch it down and make the retract mechanism lock. I can't speak for other seats, but for this particular one that holds it down really well and I can only get about an inch of movement side to side and none front to back.

Did a little car swapping with my friend's 986S, what a great car. Nice to wind it out to redline and not have to worry about going to jail.

is there a reason why so many turbo's are running a GT2 front bumper in this topic?

Mine will be getting the fixed wing once I am through my tranny swap.
