Steve Jobs didnt use it in the proper context, I didn't expect you to either.

I hit up the casino this weekend and played the slots for the first time. I was out $60 when the night was done but I had a good time either way.

RG3 is the real deal.

RG3 is definitely the real deal. Glad I scooped him up in my fantasy football league.

I'll reserve judgment as to how good he is at the halfway point of the season. I think he'll have a couple of stinkers just because the QB position in the NFL is so hard.

I've asked 2 or 3 megas.. I wouldn't dare ask Ron A for something so meager. He'd punch me through my screen for wasting his time, wad up my electronic inbox and shove it up my butt.
A white van just pulled up to my office.
I think its Ron A.

Ron A doesn't drive a van.
He drives an AZ-logoed Pagani Zonda.

And his Zonda? It has "shields".

^^^^ All of that is absolutely correct.
I timed my fill up to be when my car read zero today. Didn't actually make it to zero, but it was like the tail end of 1km. Anyway, I fill up and I only got 52.5 litres in before the pump clicked. I look online and apparently it has a 64.7 litre tank. A whole 12.2 litres left, that's enough for me to get another 110ish km or 70 miles. I knew there was some leeway, but not this much.
That's it for my experiment.

During normal (babying) driving it seems to do fine. If I floor it to pass somebody however, it revs the motor up for a second or two before actually increasing speed hope that makes sense.
Two days ago, I needed to move the car from one side of the garage to the other, so I started it up and immediately put it in drive. It took a few seconds before it would actually coast forward, then I put it into reverse, and it actually clunked.
I've never heard it make any noise that loud. I'm hoping it was just because it was cold.
I've done a 1x3 with redline racing (type F) and I have D4 which just arrived today. My question is, should I even bother doing a 2x3 using the D4, or is the damage already done and it won't make a difference?
I planned on doing the pressure switches and filter during my 3x3, if the 2x3 is worth a try, should I just do them then instead? Car has 59800 miles.
What do you think?

I received your PM, but I can't reply unless I delete it. Like I said.. it's more than likely a fluid issue. When did it start occurring? Before the type F or after? If after, how many miles? There's a strong chance we can save it, at least long enough for you to save for a rebuild.
Also, check the ATF level.. let the car run to op temp on a flat surface. Turn it off and check the stick, wipe and check, within 1 min.

When you check the fluid level, also check on top and bottom of the case for any fluid / signs of seal issues.
