Well, I'm reading a book right now, Lance Armstrong (It's Not About the Bike), and I'm learning how to pace myself for the final push! I know if I see lego or Phlash making the move I have to time it with 30 second intervals (minimum post time) to capture that last post for the podium. Phlash and Lego are not on right now so I'll have to save my energy for the finally or it will not be worth it. Can't do it without a battle!

I am so retarded. Could it be.....silver! Where you turning left from sugarloaf into the Kroger parking lot a couple of weeks ago with a titanium eight that was dropped with exhaust behind you? If so, that was me.

Well, I've seen several Ti's around and I do head the Sugarloaf direction a good bit to shop at Microceter & Fry's. Don't remember that specific incident. I'll keep a look out for you in the area. You can tell mine by the red brake callipers and "SilverEIGHT" on the back window. Stop me if you see me and say Hi!
Lego, you are late for the race, dude! I was wanting a dash for the finish.

Very interesting! They are named wrong; should be "NoSway bars". It feels more like the go-karts we were driving the other night. Seems like the steering takes more effort... is that true or was I imagining it? The overall feel is awesome. It's what I've always wanted in a car and never had.

Correct Mr Charles. As individuals get faster on the track we are going to start seeing some understeer with power on. RB front bar is 200% over the stock(RB rear bar is bigger also). I have been reading some guys are actually going BACK to the front stock sway or maybe the Mazdaspeed one (its only 20% stiffer than stock). I definitly got some power on understeer in turn 7 last time out (tires where hot also) I will see if the RB springs will help with that plus a better alignment before I change the bars as I sure love that feel on the ramps!
Get the flywheel, get the flywheel, get the flywheel Silver! Charlie will even throw in a free lunch!
