Re: Tech Inspection Question

Good luck with those pads. They seemed to be pretty good for autocross, but i was never able to make the squeeling go away. Mine got so bad and annoying i took them off and sold them. I have read if you sand down the edges into an angle it helps.

Re: Top Gear USA

Not impressed so far, but getting better. In-car cameras are way too shaky. They need to talk to franklin and get some camera mounts that arent garbage :) Or at least hang some weights from them to stabilize them.

Re: WTB: deployed NA Miata passenger airbag

When we went to hard top brackets on the miata it took about 2 hours to get the factory screws out of the brackets.
