Did you tint the upper portion of that windshield? Kinda like that look.

I personally like your break-in process because it seems to line up with my logic. Additionally, thanks for the commentary re:compression. Admittedly, I'm not mechanical guy so I wasn't exactly sure what that type of test would produce. I've been in the dark all week from the dealership, I'm...

Add me to the list, I'm not sure if there's an official thread for us to gather so this was the first I found. Manual CT5, '22 with 19k on the odo, did proper break-in with service. I was driving the car last week and noticed performance was off under heavy accel in 2nd and 3rd gear. Turned all...

I won't use 6th gear because of a rattle in the back that I haven't ID'd yet. It's set off by the exhaust I'm sure of it at a certain frequency/resonance.

Mine's been like that for 9mo. Last time I took it in for service they said they had fixed it but they hadn't.

:ROFLMAO: Save your energy.

I guess it all depends on the expense to get there and whether you're willing to make a trip out of it. I still derived a lot of value from it. I'm not a track rat by any means but it doesn't typically take me long to find the cars limits with some background in scca/nasa, and shifter kart...

Considering it was your wife I would hold this as ammo for future breakages. Yes, she definitely broke it. Good luck to her on her track day.

Boys will be boys, I suppose. I'll definitely make a point to say hello next time. How often do the V guys usually gather during the year? We had a nice run back down the canyon, whoever was on the RR1000 caught us about half way down though and he was only showing up when we left. :oops:

Great turn out, a bit too much congestion up the hill that time of the morning I guess but still had a good time. Nice to meet you @NewCaddy !

Anyone going to cars and coffee on Saturday in Santa Clarita?

Brought mine but it wasn't compatible with their Hans.

I have a manual 5, told I was getting an auto for my dates. I've done a handful of track days and some shifter kart racing some 20+yrs back. I wasn't too fussed about it, in fact figured the auto would give me a chance to focus on my lines and finding the cars capabilities and limits. But when I...

It's a "lil" heavy, just like everything else nowadays. I was just re-using the pejorative thrown around earlier in the thread.
