On Facebook in response to this picture of yours truly at Daytona International Raceway. Names have been changed to protect the innocent.
Leroy Jenkins : nice!!!
Sensei : This takes more guts than it looks. That's a 15 year old car doing an indicated 145MPH across the Start/Finish line at Daytona.
Might need a roll bar and a few other things.
Leroy Jenkins : pshaw, I have both roll bars, sport suspension/shocks/struts, and alloys
Sensei : So you welded the back of a roll cage into your car? What did you do with the seat?
Obi-Wan Kenobi : FrankenAudi!
Sensei : I think it would be even more of a FrankenAudi if it had the FrankenTurbo F21s on it.
Is it bad that I'm trying to see how much it would be to put an RS4 intake path + turbos on?
Leroy Jenkins : oh, no. it's hard to make my car roll when it's lowered
Sensei : These drivers on track would like to disagree with you:
Leroy Jenkins : but I don't drive an evo I drive a scion tC, yo!
Obi-Wan Kenobi : Great stance Sensei. Well done.
Now, Join the Audi Club of Georgia!
Sensei : Leroy, I'll be waiting for you at the finish line then...
#DeutschesSturmtruppen
Leroy Jenkins : I'm there bro! waiting on you!!!
Obi-Wan Kenobi : I call, and raise you a 1:38....
Leroy Jenkins : sorry, you've reached my voicemail, leave a message!
Obi-Wan Kenobi : LOLZ-
Sensei : Leroy, that is not very smart of you... Look further down the picture list for Obi-Wan Kenobi's tuned TT RS.
One day I will be able to learn the secrets of the Master. Until then, I continue to practice and replace brake pads and rotors.
Obi-Wan Kenobi : You know the secret. Seriously. Work on your time, not mine (in spite of my 'raise'). Two different vehicles, and hell that MazdaSpeed thingy ran past me at least twice like I was on the can!
Sensei : This may be the year I actually find out what my time is.
Car isn't equipped with a timer, and I haven't bothered because I've been attempting to learn proper technique.
Off to Amazon to find a GPS unit.
(Oh and thanks for spoiling my monastic moment :) )
Obi-Wan Kenobi : Harry's Lap Timer works on most smartphone systems. Parfait!
Sensei : Si le GPS externe va marcher avec Harry's Lap Timer, ce sera bien.
(Oui, je suis bilingue. Ou peut-être non, je ne sais pas. (avec des excuses à M. Camus) )
(correction: il y a un accent qui manque)
Obi-Wan Kenobi : Ca marche, mon ami! Aux barricades! Aux armes!
Leroy Jenkins : wonderful! relearning French is on my to do list!
Leroy Jenkins : at least brake pads and rotors cheaper and easier than tires.
Leroy Jenkins : brake rotor record players are my favorite
Leroy Jenkins : Sensei, what did you do to learn it? I didn't realize how precious my private school teaching was until I came to Atlanta...
Sensei : Lots and lots of practice. Plus time in Europe.

Is that t-shirt FIA approved?

It is asserted to comply with SFI specification 3.3 by the manufacturer.

I have conjecture as to who those two *might* be, but can't be sure.

Big thumbs up for stressing the distinction between a bar and a cage.

You may be right with one, but the other one you have never met.

I was really going for the difference between an "anti-roll bar" and a "roll bar", the latter being the back part of a "roll cage".
Besides....a Scion tC? Really? An S4 will make mincemeat of that on a road circuit.

However, you could log on to Facebook, since I know you have the ability to see where this took place.
You know, if you were really curious.

Fine, I'll just call you and talk your ears off about it. :)
