    How can I get this? It doesn't seem to show up on the website. I've used it before and it works very well. It just seems so hard to get. Such a great product should be more easily available.

    The power on the S model is great. 0 - 60 in about 6 seconds. It makes stop signs fun now that I can nail it and have fun shifting again. Kind of like on the spyder.
