Just to clarify what Kev was saying about the Integy hex screwdrivers...we were wondering why the metric sizes in the set were 1.5 and 2.5 but no 2.0....turns out that the metric 2.0 is the same as one of the standard (american) sizes...which we discovered after buying a 2.0 (but you experienced guys already knew that!).

Looking into getting a group buy going for those who don't have them. It'll be a little cheaper that way....

Alright, I found out if we get 5 people or more to go for a transponder - price goes from $105 to $95.... and if we get 20 or more... it goes from 105 to $90's so... We will need to take a head count of how many people we can get a transponder

AMB transponder themselves... They said each one is $105 for a personal transponder - Here, I called this place! http://www.amb-it.com/ambrc-transponders-c-16_18.html - Why do you have a better place to call up?

4 more weeks. I don't know if I can wait anymore. I was out testing for a little while yesterday, but it was still a tad chilly. Couldn't get much heat in the tires. Overall, the car felt really good. Traction wasn't at it's best, but the car was still planted and I could really feel the improvements I made over the winter. Hope everybody else is having the same results!

P.S. Hey Kev, how are those upgrades coming? Let's see some pics!
