I fully support your right to have as big an avatar as you like and could care less about the bandwidth.

Just bustin your chops, go back to the ginourmous one.

How about we go for 300 posts before your vacation?

Enjoy your time away from the Big D. Are you sure you don't need someone to keep an eye on your car?

Yes, please do that... It's right next to yours

Left it with John this afternoon for some front body work. It's taken a beating over the years... cracked housings, ripped brake ducts, missing radiator scoops, you name it. Bit the bullet on a GT3 front bumper. GT3 brake ducts, etc. Should be close to finished by the time I return!

Not quite sure how to interpret that, but I have some thoughts.

Jeff, I have no clue. Ask myself that all of the time. Don't give up on me, though; there are positive clues here...

The decision to replace the bumper is not for the minor downforce improvement. It's a cosmetic thing... returning the car to its less-weathered street condition. I also replaced a beat up interior console with a painted one, which was definitely all about reclaiming pre-track condition...

John Gladwell even looked at my seats yesterday and said something to the effect of "are you still able to keep your butt in place with the speeds you're carrying now?"
