Yes david is very straight up. He does however say some things sometimes that I disagree with. I'm sure its for a reaction. Like his comments on DSM's as junk and trash and you need to upgrade to an Evo. My natural thought is that well, a junk DSM won your shootout this past year. Hell the quarterfinals were all DSM's as I recall. The evo's weren't even in the hunt. The fastest 4g63 in the world is a DSM, a 6 bolt motor, and its built by Magnus. I think sometimes david's hardheaded attitude and pride in his work (he does do good work) formulates what he posts on the internet.

yes i do like it, it was a little hard to get used to at first but now i like it, i'vr\e had cars with racing clutches before, but overall i like the clutch, sometimes and i mean very rarely it has a little grind type noise if i don't release it fast enough on a steep hill not sure what thats all about but it holds great no issues aside from the grind noise but thats rare

I was wondering who's suby that was. Looked kinda funny sitting in the garage. Looks really good in person and I loved the exhaust note, makes me wish I still had mine.

so, i got a ticket tonight in north park for accelerating past an officer while he he someone pulled over. he was on the other side of the road( a 4 lane road at that ) he jumped out at me like a mad man and screamed at me to pull over, then chased me to where i pulled over, took my license and told me not to say a word. then got back in the car and went back to finish writing the ticket for the other guy.

he comes back in about 10-15min and screems at me for another 5-10min about what i did. mind you i was not speeding, i was accelerating in my van. which makes plenty of sound and no acceleration( it has a 4.8l v8 in a 1 ton van ).

gives me the ticket and tells me that he lost my license or maybe gave it to the last guy he gave a ticket to . says he will get it back to me, i say how? he takes my cell number.

i go to job and a hour later he calls and brings me my license at the job site and says he's sorry, but i'm the one with the fine

anyone know if this is points, anywhere to check?
