oh i'm not saying you can't make them go fast. But if you do indeed want to go really fast, bigger is better. it take 5 times the work to make a motor half as big go the same speed. yeah you can throw a turbo on your tiny ass motor, turbo the big motor, you'll get better results... i'm not blind.

Need some softer compound tirse. Now that I jsut bought another car(tbird wasn't cutting it no more) I don't have to worry about how streetable the teg is.

get your alignment done and then get a set of Azenis's... Theyre definately the stickiest tire for the price

why an alignment shop that will "take you"... any alignment shop that has a floor level alignment bay should be just fine.

well no. I have beater 17" wheels for front alignments o no worries about wrecking them. as for why theyw on't take me in. most shps here have the ramp style alignment things. and I cannot clear those and it's too much hassle for msot places to sue blocks tog et onto the ramp in the frist palce, then more blocks to raise me up to clear everything. I would even have to drive onto bocks to clear floor level alignment ones. to msot people It looks not THAT low. about average, but the undercarriage hangs alot lower. And with my traction bar, ther eis even less cleaarence. Before I raised it up. the traction bar was exactly 1" off the ground when the suspension was not set.
