Decent rubbers and you'll do fine mate but you'll be having too much fun to care about that anyways!
Also another thing that will help if you aren't already doing it is heel toe, really helps with a tempermental girl like the sdub :)

TRD strut braces are in :-)
First drive was just a short trip around the block before returning home to check fluids and everything. All looked good so second drive was much more fun.
I've gotta be careful, the induction sound is ADDICTIVE! 2nd and 3rd gear is fantastic, but its very easy to exceed speed limits without noticing lol.

How we change with age, i used to lay around looking at pics of nude women, now i'm lazing around looking at pics of engine bays and getting excited. Still think VW bonnets are good though too

Then i've gotta start getting ready for MTC...
