That's why I really like you Gregor... you always bring that missing logic to the discussion.

It's been a little while since I've been on here posting...I'm going to get better about that this coming year. I see you're making some progress with the Camaro, good to see Dave. Also, congrats on the new addition to your family! Our daughter just turned a year old and combine that with our 9 yr old son, we are always busy. I've coached baseball and football this year, so get ready...haha. Enjoy the kids, they grow quick!

Hey Corey - thanks!

Yeah I hear ya on the sports and business.... my son just "graduated" from his first sports class/season... he started it before he was 2... which just boggles my mind.

If you apply the old cliche 'All show no go' wheels make perfect sense.

Oh Siegy... I do like you as well, but just not for any logical reasons.

I agree about Jim's work! Question about the Sweet PS Rack: By Everything I've read over the years, it appears the inner TRE's are a little too narrow for the track width. Is there something special in the FE geometry that eliminates bumpsteer" with the rack offset? Thanks!

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.
