I kno Dan, you do like that straight line crap! LOL. Altho hillclimbing is just drag racing with a few turns.

Mike, what you need is a roll bar, (not cage). Firesuit, fire extingisher, and 5 or more point harness, helmet, and arm resraints. Really not all that much. Plus you can show up and race with no racing license. Not much racing can you do that.

Well I just picked up the car with the new twin disc in! Now that was fast. I got the clutch yesterday around 3pm and Mike up at bairel had it in bye 2pm today. Awsome job! I'll take my car to him for things i don't want to do myself anytime. He has been nothing but a stand up guy. He even looked over the car alittle and gave me some feedback on potential problems that he saw. He said "I figured you were racing this car and i don't want to see you have any problems come up that you might not kno about. It mostly is just hoses rubbing on things but. Once again great job!

Now onto first impression. This thing is way lighter feeling then i thought. It does grab as soon as you let it out tho. And there is alittle noise associated with it. Nothing unbearable at all! All and all i like. Now to get a few minutes to acutally go drive the car around for a while.

One thing you left out Jeremy that you also need. A good set of you know whats. That mustang is the perfect example. The thing that worries me the most is the fact that you're not on level ground. You're on a mountain and usually only a gaurdrail is keeping you from a 2000 ft drop! I guess all racing has it's risks though.

Cool on the clutch Jeremy. You can adjust where in the pedal it grabs if you'd like. I have adjusted my stocker several times and it does make a difference. As long as you're not moving with the car in gear and the clutch fully disengaged, you probably just need to get used to it. Like you, I'm used to the high catch point by now. Unfortunately the noises are just the nature of the twin. I heard Mike's once and thought his car was broken. I'm glad some local Mitsu tech knows what he's doing. I've given up on everyone. Anything I cannot do myself I'm going to Mike at Baierl.

Travis, that was killer turnaround time. Maybe they finally started doing the core exchange deal. That makes it so much quicker for customers.

I'm out in Philly right now waiting to get my big tune tomorrow. No more excuses. I'm modded as much as possible. This is my last and final power mod no matter what! Hit me if I even consider purchasing anything that makes power. Unless a front mount is necessary. Other than that, there's nothing left except for a bigger turbo. I'll post up how it went when I get back.

By the way, running catless is definately disgusting. I almost got sick at a redlight. No wonder why they're federally mandated!
