True, I still need a few iterations though before I can track it. Don't you think? I have to decide tomorrow whether to cancel or not or I have to pay a fee.

That must be frustrating - having to drive like a nanny while all that SC goodness is just sitting there waiting to be uncorked .

If you are, then take the s.c belt off. Car will be down on power a lot but it will be safe.
