I have been harping on Goodridge to make us a stainless line kit.

I sent them OEM rear lines a couple weeks ago.
I would like a set of stainless brake lines for my car. Me no likely the cheap rubber hoses on the car. Heck even my Polaris Outlaw 525 S came stock with braided stainless lines LOL.

They handle braking well though.

Never got a spongy or soft pedal at my track day.

I want the better feel. I run goodridge on the bike...I like Goodridge ****.

The front 4 hoses are exactly the same between the LSJ and LNF cars...its the rear lines that are different.

Hope they get back to soon.

I'm actually interested in an air intake if Vararam makes one. The vette guys swear by their air intake.

If all an intake required was a piece of aluminum it would be alot more feasable to include one from the factory.
That wasnt you in Lexington the other day was it? I saw a red SS/TC on 2A by Waltham st.

Was it like Monday or Tuesday around 5? If so than it probably was, I was coming from my girlfriends little brothers lacrosse game against Lexington at some park near there on Lincoln Street. I took 2A back to Arlington so it was probably me. I didn't see any other SS's on the way back though.

It might have been, I do recall seeing a black ss/tc in the area recently. If it was a victory red ss/tc with lowrise chances are it is me. I haven't seen too many other ss/tc's around. Every once in a while I see a silver one around cambridge, and there's a red ss/sc right down the street from my girlfriends parents house in Reading. I have seen a few out by my girlfriends office in Framingham, but that's about it. I probably did see you and just wasn't really paying attention and it didn't register.

Mines Imperial blue not black.

Yeah, I dont see many SS/TC's or SS/SC's around at all. Its always cool to see another one around

I have seen a silver one on 93 in Boston, and one in Reading but it was black. But it was a whole year of owning more before I started seeing the few that I have.

I talked with Patrick at Vararam about an hour ago. He said that he should have some news by Friday this week. Basically he is waiting on a few different designed prototypes to be completed.

I think there are some local peeps already doing that.

They've got HPT of their own too, so they should be able to provide us with some real-time R&D feedback pretty quickly if they wanted to.

That is fine, but I still will wait for Term's judgment.
