We're going to be having a dyno day at Sutton Ford in Matteson in March, I think [still finalizing the date. Last I heard was March 26]. Any of you guys want to meet the Chicago people, most of us will be there. The info is at www.chicagosvt.com

As far as the seat goes, there are extender rails available. Did you use all the adjustment controls? There are controls on the front and console side of the seat.

Yeah, was the seat all the way back? I let a friend of mine who is 6'5" 250 take my 03' for a spin and he liked it.

I'm 6' 1" and don't have my seat all the way back. At 6' 6" you probably need the extender rails.

We're not picky about what car you have. Plenty of other cars and bikes have shown up at the get togethers. One guy with a Camaro saw us going by and followed us to a meeting and we were all drooling over his car. Anyone who enjoys quick cars is welcome. :beer:

I did a quick search and found that Kenny Brown does have the seat rails. Here's the thread that talks about them. http://67.15.62.79/forums/showthread.php?t=15747&highlight=seat+extender

You will also want the MGW shift handle [or an aftermarket shifter-or both]. I have that in my car and it let me move the shifter handle back about an inch so I don't hit the radio when going into third. Much more comfortable with the MGW handle.
