Thanks! Oh berkeley yes it is, and forever(?) shall be. Again, she just keeps on givin and doesn't ask for much. Tires, brakes, & oil.

Honestly the car is so fkn fast at AMP, there's no *need* to do anything else to it. The cheap lowering springs and stock-ish struts seem to be working just fine, having found 700 or so pounds of added lightness.

The only thing I *really* want to do is put a proper cage in it, but $$$ and no more Challenge at that point. We'll see.

The idea of 4 race buckets for doreeeftotaxi has also been kicked around.

Oh, and we do still have at least 100 lbs left to lose.

NOPE! She only sees AMP. No need for the "cruising" gears at and below 120mph
