Bob Brooks (ViperBob on this board) bought the shop and it looks awesome. Bob has invested in some new equipment and the same guys all work there and he has added some new nice faces too. Bob is awesome to do business with and is totally on hand at the shop. Last time I was in last week Dave White was there.

[QUOTE=A.Wayne;4586864]What ! another Finn, in So FLa @ dat...
So we have
1. The Flying Finn
2. The spinning Finn
3. The screw in the tire Finn... [QUOTE]
Hey, to quote old Toyota Rally & F1 Boss, Mr. Anderson (or was it JT?): "If you want to win, you need a Finn!"

Juha, why don't you try hell & toe with Heel instead o rolling your feet? You must've had old WV beetle where that's kinda mandatory trait to learn. when yo actually use your heel instead of rolling your feet, there is no risk of foot slipping from the brake.

I think we can add one more Finn to Wayne's list now; The Heel&toe Finn!

I actually drove the car to work today and my heel&toe with my regular shoes was just plain perfect!! Damn that I can't replicate it with my racing shoes....

I should try the "original" heel&toe as you said Petu. I know you were perfectly comfortable with that technique in my car. So at least I know it's possible...
