Took the WOOKIE out for an extended shake down run in the mountains.

This power band is mental!

Got my new clutch & RMS in after almost 2 months of waiting for SB. Now 1000 miles of sane driving.


Unrelated to MK7, my daughter got her license & 2 days later dented the fender and ripped the bumper of the Scion reversing out of the garage. Also ripped the trim & sensor off the garage. I heard it from inside.

When i went out, she's holding the garage trim. "Dad, i don't know what this is. It just fell off." She had no idea she destroyed the car. She didn't hear or feel a thing. I could see the tire mark on the wall where she turned the wheel. No awareness whatsoever.

Which clutch did you get?
Another Southbend Stage 2 Endurance. The stage 3 was $400 more. I was good with this one. Lasted 45k miles. Should last longer, especially since i won't be tracking much in the foreseeable future. The other one had over 30 autocrosses & 10 track days.

My daughter is 14 right now. Can't wait.:rolleyes:
One thing to keep in mind is they don't listen. They might hear you, but they don't listen.

I practice panic stops with her in parking lots I've told her if i stay at STOP!. you put the clutch in and slam on the brakes.

So the i yell STOP!
"Do you want me to stop? Why do do you want to stop? There's nothing there."

?.

Oh and you might tell them straight into the garage and straight out. They will forgot that by the time they get the next Snapchat

They tune you out pretty early.

We like to think we were different, but i didn't listen to shit my parents said. If i did, I'd probably be retired right now living in Bali, instead of startng over at 46
