welcome, we usually have monthly meets so you should come on down. I have a few things on my 8 that I could show you.

Suspension is a DO. A really big DO!!!!!!!!!!

Revving the hell out of her every chance you get is an enormous, gigantic, unquestionable DO!!!!!!!

Exhaust will make you noisier, but not much faster.

Everything else is up to you.

Oh, and no complaining about fuel mileage. Some people get in the low 20's. The last few tanks I've gotten 11-12 mpg (I have a disorder in my right foot where it tends to push any pedal it comes in contact with REALLY hard).

I think it describes a lot of us.

I'm planning on moving next month, which means a longer commute. Seeing the numbers on my fuel consumption, it may be less expensive to buy a commuter car than continuing to drive my 8 to work.
