Indeed Don. The lumpiness is not violent but just enough to indicate something is a bit off with the ride. In short order it is gone but it is just a bit annoying and the first time it happens is a surprise. Enjoy what is left of the long weekend. Best, Jeff

Thanks Billy, much appreciated. Best, Jeff

My mistake -- went back and looked at the post from Billy when I asked about pressure -- 36/36. I'll double check what tires are at next time I drive the car and if low will pump up to 36/36 and report back if my impressions are any different than per my prior posts. Thanks guys. Best, Jeff

Billy I'm running what you suggested to me quite some time ago -- think it was 33 or so all around. Maybe if I get the car on track in a controlled environment where can do no damage my confidence level will go up with these tires but seat of pants they don't inspire the same confidence that...

I use it on all rubber seals on both my NSX and trusty old /04 TL w/190,000 miles that runs like a Swiss watch. Got to love the Honda/Acura of the 90s up through /08 in the case of the Gen III TL. The latest offerings, other than the NSX, don't light my fire. I might have crossed a line --...

After couple years on the ECS I agree with Superhatch's assessment. I feel nowhere as confident pushing the car in the corners as I did on the old stiff as hockey pucks Bridgestone RE010s. Though the ride is now much more pleasant on our crap roads here in the suburbs of Detroit, some of the...

Hey Don, Appreciate the response and no apologies necessary for the length. I prefer detail to incomplete sound bites (read: the manner in which the younger folks in my office speak -- lack of detail leading to mistakes -- not good). I can help you out a bit with the flat spotting in cold...

Donk, how goes? Jeff up here in MI. Couple questions if you don't mind. You reference your new tires -- Conti Extreme Contacts. Are these the summer Extreme Contact Sports or the all season Extreme Contact DWS06? I have the summer Extreme Contact Sports. They are OK but as I've mentioned...

docjohn, don't you think that a suitcase full of C-notes might be a better motivator? Best, Jeff

I put my drinks between my legs. I like to live dangerously. LOL. Seriously, I have the old Z-toolman (correct name?) cupholder and it seems to work fine. However, I don't use it it for spirited drives. Best, Jeff

Brent, I'm glad it all worked out and very happy to have another Formula Red NSX here in MI. As I said to Bob and others, Frank's NSX will be in very good hands. Congratulations and drive in good health! We will pull something together in the near future to get the SE MI NSX gang together...

Donk, keep us posted. Thanks.

I will leave it to the new owner to introduce himself in due course. I have met him a number of times and he is a true Honda enthusiast. Frank's car will be in good hands. Best, Jeff PS -- rather long absence for me -- was locked out of my account thanks to Honcho and Spencer for helping me...

Wow, Amy would kill me. Did you get the LED light kit so you can light up that fantastic color at night? I'm jealous. Now I have to come to NS to visit -- happy to sleep in your garage! Best, Jeff
