I was not a big fan of replacing steel doors with plastic ones with no collision protection in CAM. IMO, that would make the car unsafe to be a daily driver on the street and possibly uninsurable for street use. The same goes for thin plastic windows, especially the windshield. As I remember, there was already a weight penalty for plastic windows.

Yoks = Yokohama tires?

It works, or rather worked, for me. Just because I wasn't fast didn't mean my car wasn't.

I'm not running any class where it matters, but I bet that will absolutely wreck some index classes or classes like STU.

All pro solo starts are suppose to be a 200 foot drag start before the first turn, but some sites can't support that.

Sometimes.. I ponder the thought of "also" doing another Mazda..
.. but, there isnt an ounce of comparison to a big, fast,heavy,wide car.
My next 2 mods/improvements would purchase the national winning STS car... but, its just not the same.
too me.
Im pretty sure until you have invested in CAM.. and built the whole car from the new car smell to the stinch of gear oil and fiberglass... you just wont get it.
however... if they take away fiberglass/composite body panels, I'd do something else.. prolly STS.
