Re: Had some fun with the T/A today...

For some reason i though IRS wasnt so good for going fast (as far at the drag stip counts) i think i heard you get more wheel hop, not sure about track racing.

Solid rear is better for drag set-ups. But the Corvettes IRS isn't too bad.

Yeah...that light car would be a kick in the pants with my motor in it.

Ah, I curse snow every I see it on the roads or on my car, but I know if I moved somewhere without it I'd end up missing it...maybe.

Re: Had some fun with the T/A today...

That little Grand Am was only stuck for 2 days.
No one was out the first day...and I wasn't going to risk it the second day.

Otherwise, I have been able to enjoy the e-brake.

Damn you're lucky. Wish it would just snow for one day here..at least 3 feet.
So I don't have to go to work
