^ lol. Not yet, sorry guys.

I was busy changing my ATF oil on 2 family cars over the weekend.

Didn't even have chance to drive my 8 over the weekend.

Lots of family chores the past weekend. Will have to try again this weekend.

Damn, my 8 is more like a commuter to work than my weekend car now. :p Now I love to go to work. :p
