Believe he stated it is a manual tranny :)
The other car Steve - his turbo ls monte

It's okay. I can't keep them all straight either.

I'll look into the PTC as well.  I know FTI will make whatever stall speed you desire.  I have a billet FTI triple disc behind the 80E (3800 stall) in the wagon and it drives great with its HCI combo.

Hey Mike, good to see you're doing well out there. I'm up in Uxbridge now & really can't compare it to Toronto.
I just watched this guys MT tv show with a Mustang & you post this up so thanks for the link I now have many viewing hours ahead of me!  :cheers:

The further you move from cities the more perspective you gain. Unfortunately, we couldn't handle Ontario's direction any longer.  Hope Uxbridge has been warm and welcoming.  VGG's early episodes (with really low production quality) are the best, IMO. Derek is a pretty genuine guy, his wife (Jessica) is special too.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Well after watching the GTO episode I kept thinking where have I heard that kind of gooderer talk & he sounds just like Our Canadian Hero Mr. Red Green   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJt2dnRQXmM&ab_channel=RedGreenTV

I struggled through 45 minutes of it - I just can't do it. I don't dislike Derek, but the video is paced way too slowly for me.

Well he's from the Minnesota area so it's not hard to believe there's some similarities in mannerisms and delivery.

Yep, it's an acquired taste for sure. His long form videos got me through long days at home between 2020 and 2021... so I am pretty conditioned now.
