    OPM Autosport FTW! yall ran great at the SCCA event last week at RA.

    I was going to possible run this with a few buds but the cage was ordered MONTHS ago and never got in... WTF? called and said "oo we are sorry, we will start on it this week"... that was last weekend.

    that car has some crazy handling issues that no one can figure out. Several people including myself have thrown pretty much everything at it besides changing every single suspension piece and subframe and start all over. We've made progress but we are still getting there.
