So don't do this specific procedure we just told you about, because if you mess it up the next crew has to deal with it.

Um. Yea. Say no more boss, pushing on time! Allegedly. For a friend. Because I'd never do whatever that thing is that we're not supposed to do and that almost nobody knows about because nobody reads company email anyhow.

That pretty much settles it. Beers on YOU at the bar, but don’t worry. I’ll bring my 35MM photo album of my unicorn sprawled out across the hood of my MX-5.

Expect an invitation to the next track day as well where I shall proceed to surgically annihilate your ass with said Miata you silly English pigdog.

Deal.... except nothing but top shelf whiskey. As for the track day, you think you can keep up with the Plaid variety?

The Plaid?! It’s a one trick pony. Straight ahead acceleration. Crap for braking and handling (or top speed for that matter). Pfffffft…..

I fart in the Plaid’s general direction!
