I'm back in the area for spring break...I just broke my window switch button, (drivers side) it can still go up and down but the button broke off. Does anyone know of any junk yards that have FCs for me to look at or does anyone have any complete switch assemblys for sale?

Durrr, I've never heard of a brake line lock before.

Anyone know of a local place that sells silicone couplers? Does Hampton Rubber have them?

Yosh, it is a drag race thing. It locks up the front brakes solid (or you can like all of them if you want) and lets you preload the drive train for a launch. Nothing us road racers have any experience with. You can make the cars drive train come close to internally hemoraging and then release the brakes via a button or something and get a coule of hundreths quicker launch, with more consistency.

Weather is gonna be great Sunday..... I am gonna be at the Autocross at Pungo Sunday. Some people have said "maybe". Monty, I looked and you are right I still have the lenses you wanted sitting in my RX7 (drove it today for the first time in about 3 weeks). I will have them Sunday if you come by the autocross. If not I will catch up with you soon.

If Mom decides to run the Autocross Sunday I will be running the Shelby, if not I will be in my RX7.

Here is where you can find information about the event:

OH, BTW, that vert that Elliot bought off that guy, guess what, whil I took the oilpan off to take a look, it had a FREAKIN rag inside the oilpan. I can't believe it. Kinda of like a doctor leaving scissors in a person!!!!!!!!!!!It's incredible.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll be drilling and tapping the front cover for the car this week, and hopefully putting it in by the weekend. Wish me luck. I hope all this **** fits.

What manifold you think I should get to accomodate the T4 turbo? External WG is what I'll be running BTW.
