Well.. I am going to start a "foundation" w/ a couple of friends and we can list our cars, go karts, bikes and such as race & display vehicles to get a huge tax refund ;) but an EEC grant would be even better! They SHOULD support us, we are the ones that bring color and happyness among the masses of boring european and japanozuki econoboxes :D :D

Some of us agree w/ you. In the West like Texas it is possible to run any speed. Smooth expressways & curving back roads. To get to a road where over 100 is safe may take less than 5 min.

Had Konis, have FE-7 w/ VB rear & Delco Performer shocks.

:cool:

Since Monroe makes Delco and after some exhausting research, I went with Monroe Stabilizers. They're moderately priced and give a firm enough, yet not jaw breaking ride. I had Koni's and they're great but if you just drive on the street, they're an overkill.
