Should have bought F-1s.

Patience
The sportlines DEF improved the cars looks, but its very very very low right now. I'm a bit worried. My midpipe is like 4 inches off the ground.

I won't add any more power to this car until I get the traction issues completely under control. I hope the LCA's and relo brackets solve it.
Thats awesome man. I would love some DR's but i don't think i would survive in the rain. Do LCA's really help traction much? Worth the investment? I know they reduce wheel hop, but i don't have much of an issue with that anyway..
