Is there an autocross this sunday? I should have my new battery tommorow and I would like to make it out to watch at least once this year

Not with the Porsche guys. They may have one more next month (21st?) depending on weather, but probably won't post either way until that Wed.

I was looking to see if you had the pedals that matched the blue bezel..

I'm trying to get rid of all the blue stuff that came with mine.. the blue mitsu metal shift knob.. the pedals.. and the bezel that you already have..

How nerve wracking is it to stand out there when 35 year old porches are flying towards you?
As you noticed, I have the blue stuff. I ordered the car bare bones and that's how it came. I didn't like the blue bezel at first but have gotten used to it, and now do like it.

It's not nerve racking out there. You either stand far away or next to a light post

This shot makes it look like I'm about to run into some spectators, though in reality I was pretty far away.

Man, I really need to get my car out there. How do the stock pads hold up at Nelson? Some new pads would surely be a good idea, I'd think....

I've only been on a track three times (twice at Nelson with a '90 CRX Si and once at Gingerman with an '01 S4), so I'm no expert. I have no track or auto-x experience with my Evo yet...

Nelson is pretty easy on brake pads, stock should be more than good enough.

I was going to go tomorrow but there is a track rental here at Norwalk too and we are going to test this RWD Toyota with the 4G63 in it.

My car came with the silver bezel and the damn thing rattled!

Nice picture - tripod mode ftw!
