Wheel scrubbing on the 'Vert and then a few highway on-ramp 3rd gear redline pops to "dry the wheels" and because the primer driver (Mrs. Wisco) drives the car like a grandma :-)
I'm going to DFW this week!
Lol I saw that thing on sale and could not wrap my head around it. What's it like? Big plastic golf ball?Quote:

It was expensive as hell... $160 + shipping.
I thought the motorsport knob was plastic, which is why I borrowed it from Derek. I was really surprised to find that it's rubber. It feels pretty nice to shift with, but I just know that being rubber, it's going to wear pretty badly as well. Oh well...
Quite the journey. Bring loose cool clothes!Quote:

M3 dead pedal arrived and installed today. It wasn't quite as clean as the seller and his pictures led me to believe, but for $35 I'm not complaining.
How do you like them? I've been eyeing some steel and rubber pedal sets, but they're not exactly a necessity.
