what did you do to your Sonic today?

[Goneau]

I just have massive feet. I didn't even install the new loud pedal, just the brake and man pedal.

lol, haven't heard that before, man pedal or loud pedal, i laughed with egg in my mouth...didn't work out so well.

 

[Goneau]

still looks like it favors the right, I actually tilted mine to the left to make heel toe shifting a bit easier.

I don't have particularly large feet and heel toeing with factory pedals was nigh on impossible for me, unless I straight up HEEL and big to completely horizontal lol

 

[Eric Smit]

I just use the left and right sides of my foot.

 

[Goneau]

same, but it just doesn't work for me on stock pedals, i'm like a half inch too short for it to be comfortable

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

Eggsactly...

Left side of foot on brake, right side of foot on throttle.

 

[Goneau]

I know that D:
It was just very uncomfortable, and I did not like it lol

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

Now worries, to each his own and all that jazz. One day you'll learn how to drive like a man...

fair enough lol
Honestly though I've always wanted to learn how to race and or rally. We made a snow rally course at my buddies house the past few years and he has 2 beater impreza wagons with 200K+mile 5 speeds lol good times till you hit a tree >.< Not that any of us were really that good, it was just wooden stakes on quad trails through the woods lol

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

Go watch a bunch of videos on YouTube and practice as often as you can. Heel toe is easy once you get the hang of it you won't even realize you're doing it.

 

[Goneau]

Yeah, I've tried it before just messing around or whipping through the backroads but it's nowhere near comfortable yet. How many of you guys race?

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

I go to the track as often as I can, I'll be there in about 9 hours

 

[Goneau]

I'm so jelly.
The closest track for me is a few hours away and I'm not sure what they do for track days.
NHIS is about 3 hours away, but i don't think they do track days. do you bring the good ol' sonic?

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

Yup, Preloader, Wingman, and myself will be running 1320 feet at a time opcorn:

 

[Goneau]

four lane drag!?

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

no just two lanes, Typical track 100ft above sea level.

 

[Goneau]

I read that wrong, is says at a time, i thought it said at the same time lol

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

4 lane drag would be fun as hell though!

 

[rodslinger]

I dropped mine off at the body shop. Wife was rear ended back in December. Pretty minor. Refinish bumper cover and replace impact beam.

 

[Goneau]

4 lane drag would be fun as hell though!

There is one in Virginia!

dropped mine off at the dealer today. XM stopped working, XM said it was an issue with the radio. Dealer had a TSB on it and tried to reprogram the radio, but the TSB also says their is a chance that the radio will lock up and become useless....Well, my radio locked up and is now useless. Dealer said a new radio should be delivered tomorrow morning/early afternoon and hopefully back together a few hours after that.
