You can use purchased tunes if you like.  You may have to purchase several tunes of the same car as we move up in class!

If you would smile a bit more you could pass for a childhood hero of mine:



Nice cats, I wish I wasn't so allergic to them so they could come in my home.


Not sure I can make it this Friday either but will try.

Can we get a clarification on the term Roadster again?

I always understood them to be topless cars and not mere convertables.

Roadster = 2 seater RWD, open or closed top.  Don't know if that's the correct definition but that would be my definition.

Cannot have pick-up bed, if anyone is thinking about it.

(Don't know if SROTH will be able to fit into one . . .)

I always have called those, 2 seater sportscars.
Covers lots of ground that way.

Roadsters have always been cars with no top whatsoever and some even have 4 seats or a rumbleseat.

I was sure we had edumacated you on this before... ;D
