Patrick, Patrick, Patrick. You keep pokin' the stick at the rattle snake....lol

Oh, stretch and get limbered up before the clutch master cylinder install. You have to be somewhat of a contortionist to reach everything.

The seems to be the trend lately. Laying in the trunk. Laying under the dash. Hopefully it's good for my core. Patrick can't even keep his battery charged. I wouldn't worry about him.

Hey Erick, we should start a "fast list" for the club, would be pretty cool to have a little friendly competition between us at the track.

That's a good idea. Then we can document Elliot's struggle to be faster than Tonja.

It'll take me a little longer to get the car going but I decided its the best way to go. Can save on future mods and can constantly log and adjust the tune at the track. Makes too much sense not to seeing its really not all the much more expensive then 1 or 2 tunes from a shop. Besides, I do everything else myself, why not tune it too?

Hawk HPS. The stock Brembo pads are pretty well rounded though. You wouldn't be wrong if you got the stock stuff.

Takes a lot of learning.. I agree though with being able to adjust the tune yourself. I had way too many issues with my tunes (finally after much fighting got it dialed in). I'd like to learn the basics and HPT is what seems to be the way to go.

Why stop at the basics. Dyno time is 3 pulls for $85 at RPM and $100 for 3 pulls at Wichita dyno which is a dyno dynamics. No reason you can't do it all if you stick with it.
