Brand new Focus ST. I wasn't sure if he was going to do anything because he was middle aged and had his wife/sister/I don't know in the passenger seat.

I gave him the thumbs up and he gave one back with a smile on his face. He wasn't a sore loser, and that was pretty cool.

Ah, I bet Mr Rogers had a sad after that loss. ;)

He was jolly as can be! It's nice to see someone really appreciate your car when you toast them rather than raging or ignoring you completely.

I'm actually more apt to roll down the window and talk to the person when I lose

we should go to a track, I'm interested to see how my car compares to yours

It would be close. I usually drive around with a few fat bitches.

I have to just come over and let you drive it. I just sent my tune to lucky for the n/a cams today... hoping it will keep things more exciting for a while lol. Sometimes my car feels amazing and other times It's just idk. Maybe it's the hot weather, or me constantly worrying about my car getting more tired every time I push it. I bet yours will be more fun than mine after the manual shwap.

I feel this too. Sometimes its just so so and other times I can hardly control the car.

Do people put trans coolers on manuals? I'm at the point where I don't care about preventive measures for the auto because I'm so ready to do a swap.

I think people use them at the very high end - professional racing and maybe sub-pro rally racing or funny cars... but not on a street car. At least I don't think so.
