I took my first top down drive today since I've owned the car. I took the hard top off and went for a drive since it's nice today. I have to say I enjoyed it a lot! I could hear that musical engine and exhaust just singing.
I am going to leave the top off for a week or so to try to stretch the soft top back into shape. It's a brand new top, and I feel bad leaving it wrinkled up all the time. So I suppose I'll let it breathe for a couple days before putting the hard top back on. I still think coupe>convertible, but I will admit it was damn fun!

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!?!?!?!
Such blasphemy AJ! How can you own this car and NOT drive it with the top down??? Lol. I drove it top down for like the entire first month after I bought it (in November, lol).

LOL, shut up Doug!!!
What a beautiful day it turned out to be after the thunderstorm last night. My dog kept me up all night, probably got 2-3 total hours scattered napping here and there.

Alright, I'll admit it... I have a tire problem...
Got new street tires and race tires mounted yesterday. Going with a 245/275 Hoosier setup for autox this year. The 275's look beefy; hopefully they will work out OK. B-Stock history shows that I should be OK.
While the wheels are off I'm gonna try to get the ride height set even on my "new" Bilsteins. I'm having to raise the car up an additional 3/4" from where they sat with the HKS coilovers due to the softer springs/dampers. That's a whole 'nother finger gap.
But its gotta happen so I don't rub during a run. Welcome back the monster truck ride height era of my car.
