i have almost been killed by an elderly driver pulling infront of me on my bike, and almost seriously injured when being irresponcible on the infamous Sunrise Highway in Alpine, Ca. in my 1st duece. so i can atest to both sides of the spectrum of how dangerous it is to not be a well versed driver in both responcible driving and defensive driving.

Please refrain from making this thread into a safety issue. I've had to deal with this from other members and had their threads deleted. Like I told others before, if you want to talk about safety, please post in another thread. This is for Ben and Shane that have been MR2 owners for years. Also the car that we finished for Ben wasn't Turbo and it was an automatic which made it slower than you typical 5SFE motor.
