I wish you had a video of that, that woulda been badass to see.

Either way, it makes sense with brakes/tires/rear dampers

Yeah, it's a terrible show, but that's an interesting result.

No issues = only breaking 5 of the 6 forward gears?

I'd prove it to you in the s2k, but you can't have 2 guys in one. Therefore, I will have to drive the 5.0 to prove to you I can drive a 6MT so that I can drive the s2k.

Wow... I didn't know this thread existed. Thanks for the link Steve.

Congrats on the S2k purchase. Now we all know you just wanted to be like Dan

Yeah, I look forward to all your mods, but I hope this doesn't mean the 5.0 will take a back seat to your mods. Did you get the MGW shifter yet??? That's a must, my friend.

Btw, speaking of S2k, did you know I cross shopped that S2k with the Z back in end of 2009? I ALMOST got a blue S2k...but the wifey just didn't like the cramped interior. So we opted for the Z instead. She also said it looked better than the S2k. But I've always loved the S2k.....

Again, congrats and good find.

p.s. BUY THE MGW.
