Man, from an aesthetics point of view, this thread is the only thing stopping me from selling my Sebring and getting a NFR or RYP as I originally wanted.

I usually stick to the CityTech (now speedsf.com) days. The next Thunderhill event is in June after the new track should be open. Most of us should be at Buttonwillow in March though I am guessing.

Either the Evasive AP1 S2000 is extremely similar, or he added a sticker, but it looks just like the guy at Evasive who does the maintenance on my car. His is on the left.

Everything you stated is correct. His s2ki name is 'Noodler'.

Niiiiice The world gets smaller and smaller.

That is definitely a looong drive too. I was up towards that direction but for different purposes, so I got to experience the weather too Was Thunderhill today or yesterday?

Edit: I answered my own question by looking at the timestamp of your post

I am type that tries to avoid false positives so as usual I will be taking it pretty slow as I try different things out and really try to slowly refine my knowledge of the car and do the same with my driving style.
Sent you a PM about a setup sheet you may be interested in... Love the build and your methodical approach to tuning. I wish more would follow your footsteps.
