Manny, my Porsche shop foreman centered my steering wheel for me today. I had forgotten to leave it on the car when he had done an alignment for me a few months ago.
He is certified to work on 959's, Carrera GT's, GT3RS', Turbos, etc., he knows fast cars.. I warmed up the lotus and told him to drive it hard, he did

. When he came back from the drive he says "that car is ridiculously fast and scared the hell out of me, I love it!"
Manny told me that he had always been a bit sceptical and never really believed me when I had told him how ludicrous the car was.. He's originally from London and previously did own an original S1 Elise with the N/A Rover motor.
It was fun to see his face when he returned from the drive, he was in shock and looked just like this
