Got it. We call the learner permit a learner licence. When can you get a full licence, 18?

I'm not going to give advice, you can learn the hard way like I did.😎 Seriously though, take it easy, learn the cars little tricks, enjoy it. You probably don't know how lucky you are.🥳 BTW Can you get a licence at 15 there? We used to here until about 5 years ago, it's 16 for a learners now.

Evil bugger.

The Pirellis have a really big anti scuff bead. All tyres should have them, it'll save a lot of tears.

I use it, had it on the last three cars. My wife's car doesn't have one and it's PIA.

What voltage is showing on the dash readout when mobile and idle?

I find the stock seats fine for fast road driving. But, because I'm not a big guy (5' 7" 79kgs), I think they would lack support for track use. It may be different with a broader back.

Fair enough. But if you've been doing it for 60 years you're already a driving God:bow:

FWIW. I keep a spreadsheet on every thing that I do, or happens, to my cars and bikes, especially modded ones. I even have full suspension set up measurements and damping settings. It may not help resale value, but I think it helps get a sale. Another option is to take the goodies off and sell...

I'm not a fan of white, but that looks sharp.

I use both too. But when I was looking for Ford spec compatability on Castrol Edge 5w/30 LL I couldn't find anything.

I might be showing my age here, but why does anyone need that? There is a handbrake. But better still learn to heel and toe. Braking with the ball of your foot and blipping the accelerator with your heel. This is how you downshift while braking hard without stressing the clutch and gearbox, and...

V1's need 12v+ Use a mirror tap, and tap into the connector up there.

Exactly. A friend told me about it.

Put a cilatil tab in the drooping one. It'll be fine by morning.

Have you heard about the insomniac, dyslexic agnostic? He lay awake all night wondering if there was a dog.

I've got that, can't hear a damn thing in a noisy room, but can hear a mouse fart in the next street on a quiet night. And, being married for 22 years, I have the active hearing option.

Lugging high is high load/high gear. I don't know the correct term for what you're describing, but I've had it happen when I've inadvertently pulled the shifter back to M.

I had an original Toyota GT86. It was great fun, handled like a go kart, drifted if you so much as thought about it. But it had a stupid torque curve with a hole in the mid range, so it was OK pottering around town, and quick enough to be fun if you rang it's neck, but a PIA if you were just...

What are "true" Brembos? Are you saying Ford is using some third world copy with a Brembo logo on it? Thats going to be a fascinating lawsuit.
