If there is still room i would like one!

Jcm888 10-15-2016 10:02 AM

I would like a short shifter as well..add me to the list!

Ben006 10-16-2016 01:12 PM

Done!

So right now we're 15!

I'm closing orders tonight, so be quick to at least send me your information if you want one!

I met Chriszenithblue today, for one of the best day I've spent behind a wheel!

We compared my shifter to his B&M.

So, my gearbox and its 116 000miles has a bit more play in neutral than his, but it's pretty even overall.
The difference is in the gear engagement, the B&M is softer, more cushy, while mine is stiffer and really has the "riffle bolt action".
They both do the job, just the feeling that is different :)

Ben - There are a number of interested parties on the Rennlist 996 forum. I sent them this way (some posted above).

I figured it was the least I could do after I completely disappeared when it was time to get mine. :(
Let's just say that some things came up and I had no way of contacting you for about a month...sorry about that.

Ben006 10-18-2016 02:52 PM

Yep, I see people from rennlist coming :)
Thanks!

Don't worry, I still managed to sell them after ;)

Ben,

I'm from rennlist 996 forum.

Looks like I might be too late for this run, but I would like to order one.

Please let me know.

Thanks.

MoeMonney 10-19-2016 05:54 AM

Ben006 10-19-2016 02:43 PM

Alright, I really appreciate the enthusiasm, but I need to close this round, the load will already be pretty heavy on me! Never had so many people!

Thanks everyone guys :)
