zumn: I am overdue for a trip at Casa de BHR but I'm not sure when I'm going to be doing that.

I'd tow your 8 for ya but I'm pretty sure the bimmer's towing capabilities aren't even all that great.
Renting a truck would probably be the easiest thing to do, you could get a Silverado from Enerprise for only like $35 a day.


As Gregs said: you COULD drive it out there on a base map but if you go into BOOST, that could be a problem.

ANYONE who has been sitting on the fence about buying an AP should definitely take advantage of this deal.
I don't see ANY reason why guys who mod their RX-8's and plan on driving them for a while don't have an AP. c'mon guys, this is the best money you'll probably ever spend on your car.

speaking of AP's.

UPDATE your AP before this weekend.
Jeff: any preference on whether they download the betas as well or just releases? (isn't there an option on the update manager?)

I'm pretty sure the beta and mainstream versions are identical at the moment.
I always leave the beta option checked.

All you do is disconnect the actuator rod from the wastegate and let the wastegate blow open . You wont make any boost at all up until about 5000 rpm so it is no problem to drive it like that . .....
