…been lurking on the forum for a while now – like a year, and wanted to say thanks for everyone’s contribution. The educating, automotive creativity, and sheer entertainment of this group is VERY much appreciated…

Welcome! Glad you decided to join. There's a ton of information floating around and plenty of amazing products to purchase. Hope you're ready to spend some money.

Edit: Just noticed you are from Chicagoland too. Whereabouts? It's good to have some more Chi-town representation.

I've seen worse throws, but I would agree. It needs to be shorter. I'll probably be ordering my STS this weekend. I've got a heavier shift knob that should probably be delivered on monday coming too. Everyone who has swapped out the knob says it makes a huge difference, and I don't doubt it. I would probably recommend grabbing one of these as well (shouldn't run you much more than about $50 for most that I've seen). Just make sure it works with the reverse lock out (there's a thread about it here).

Man, that is pretty much out in the sticks. I've been out there a couple times, but not since I've gotten my coupe. I think I swam out that way once or twice when I was in high school.

When aren't we nice? And you've got some old friends. Looks like he's about 60 years older than you.

Let me know how you like the heavier shifter. The STS with stock knob isn't bad...but I'm always interested in improving.

Yeah...I run up and down 88, 294 & 355 a lot.

I love the new 355 extension (not sure if you ever head that far south). It's pretty much wide open and nice flat pavement. That's the only place I've tested the top speed of my coupe (the wide open part helps hawk-eye cops in the distance). It was pretty dumb, but I only did it once.

No kidding - As far as Fridays, it has changed my life. I used to run from I-80, up Route 45 to get home...a nightmare! Like 2 hours! Now I love that stretch.

Man, that's a commute. Do you work somewhere around Tinley or something? That shaves a whole bunch of time. It cut my drive time from the Darien/Hinsdale area to New Lenox in half. I can't imagine 2 hours on a regular basis.

A couple of times a week I run out to clients in Frankfort & South Joliet...hence the way long commute.

Don't make me come up there

Actually, they have canceled all travel for now due to the economy or I would have been up there last week.

When they lift the restriction give me a ring. I'll spot you a Portie lunch. Like the old dayz!
