I'm thinking about adding a rear wing for hill climbs as down force on high speed corners is a good thing.

So what are you running and where did you get it?

It would be really fun to watch Paul run his car, especially against some of the hot dog SCCA guys out here that are running the big hp cars. Weight is a big equalizer.

Thats why fastest cars out there are 1000 lb A mods with huge wings. I think its even more impressive when big high HP cars do well in Autocross. Well driven CP (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) cars always amaze me. Rules dont let them achieve better than 50/50 weight and they are well north of 2700 lbs. But they still manage to beat cars weighing nearly 1500 lbs less. Made me a believer in HP being just as important as weight.
