yup -- the car looked really good, andy, as did your driving.  i was dumbfounded how hot you were able to take those corners.  the car just STUCK.  (well, 2 wheels usually stuck).

let me know if you need a hand replacing those shocks or springs or anything.

Nathan and I were watching you from similar place on the course. Those tires stick like frickn glue!!! It seemed like you could do anything and not lose traction. Your car stayed better hooked up than the race cars out there. You do need to sort out your suspension. You were lifting that rear wheel and losing ability to put down full power on the exit of some corners when you took off the front bar. ...the tires that were on the ground seemed to be gripping very nicely (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
