Push Harder - Drive as close to the limit of your tires as possible.
Suck Less - Drive something resembling a proper racing line.

:pointlaugh: That toilet flushed years ago. With this car it tells me the accurate tire pressures on a screen. Ding, ding, ding. You are low on KYium Gas.

Okay, I'll figure out how to get it into the Miata, heh.

Hopefully my little Echo can cut that jungle down!

Thanks, Jason! If we're lucky, they did some mowing back there this week. But, a little weed-whacking can certainly make a difference if not. :salute:

Maybe a Sawzall? Thank you Mr. Jason Ball. Put it in the passenger seat. Tie it to the roof? It has taken me 7 weeks to kill the rash on my right leg from that frickin' place.

Calamine Lotion is God for Brooksville. Rx doesn't kill it.

I will bring my sickle/sling blade if anyone wants to practice their golf swing with it. :)

Focus RS should do all the donuts....in the rain with any luck. Go AM rain. Make their computers fry themselves. AAA+ mobiles?
