The car is a lot faster... There's still more oversteer than I (or Zack) would like, so there are sway bars in my near future. It Slaloms a lot faster now, rides lower and rougher, engine breaks more (Zack tried to explain why... I didn't get it)... but I'm still not competitive in STX However the next BSCC event should be like shooting fish in a barrel

Definitely a lot stiffer than Stock but on most surfaces it's not uncomfortable. Creases on the highway or around construction sites suck though, as to almost all of the bridges between here and Packwood

Stumbled across a video of the bullshit box:
