I have even thought of making the foot/hand brake higher off the floor (maybe even shortening it up a bit) so you can rest your foot behind it but looks complicated without cutting and re-welding it. After all a bit higher up is not an issue to applying it and in these days of dual braking systems you shouldn’t really need an emergency brake that just does rear wheels

Yeah it was nuts! Looks like someone has shot through my veranda with golf balls! The high tide mark on our side fence is about a foot high
Was crazy with the kids, few of my class (only 9 and 10 years old) were screaming, others sitting back on their bags eating and watching it, 1 has just come from Katherine, another from Bali and they didn't see what the fuss was about, haha.

Maybe as the car gets run in a bit more it will become less noticeable and climb up to that turbo kick a bit quicker.
I am thinking if iam going to keep the unit it will most likely be sitting in the ultimate mode somewhere.

Maybe catch can?

We will get our 2021 S-Limited V6TD in a few weeks. Mod list is building up. Literally the second last one available. We that’s what the spreadsheet said.
