I only had traction on the couple runs I heated my tires up on. First run was really bad

Yeah, unless it's a factory base it's hard to dial it in. That's why I found that modding my factory hurst was a godsend.

The short stick.

The Bandit Knob.

When all was said and done it sat up around 7 inches off the deck and was at the perfect angle to be shifted more with the palm/wrist rather than ripping it. Haven't really powershifted on it yet (clutch change first) but it's firm as FUUUUUUU on hard acceleration/launches.

Haggis has gotten a bad rap. Nobody ever seems to mention the old British staple. The Steak and Kidney pie. Yup! Thats right. KIDNEY. Organ meat. I don't know what its like in England nowadays, but back in '91 and '92, the steak and kidney pie was the equivilent to the 7-11 hot dog in the states. Just what the doctor ordered after a night of drinking in the pubs or clubs. I remember sitting on the side of the road at 3 AM, drunk as a monkey, eating a steak and kidney pie with a white plastic fork. Ah, memories.

Won't be from Canada. Either another Fairfax build (maybe Detroit-Hamtramck) or a Lordstown build.

Not even. Probably waiting for the 2.5L this summer.

I don't even know if my parents can figure out MyLink.
