Default Anti bump steer kit

JP, I know your comments may be biased but did you have this on your car when you kicked my a** at B-willow?

Aaron drove my car yesterday at Pahrump and told me it was handling fine but could benefit from the bump steer kit. BTW, in about 1/2 a session he beat my time by 2 seconds... in my own car!!! I really need driving lessons

Craig, you are doing good if you are within 2 seconds of Aaron B. at Pahrump.

Craig, no I didn't have it on my car at BW. We've sold out two production runs of these things but none of the "regular" suspects with the exception of Ry and Dave have them installed. They're on my short list of mods for next year once I do some other suspension related bits.

There's no question they solve a very real problem with the rear suspension though.

Did we ever assign SV Challenge mod points to this kit? If I go back to my stock intake and/or rear bar, I might be able to afford the points.

aftermarket intakes aren't worth any points.

Good point, I'd better get those into the new classing discussions

In a way I wish we were all driving more similar cars. The competition and rivalry would be so much more intense and fun. So I was thinking that, in addition to the SV Challenge, we could have a more direct driver competition also. At each event we would designate one of our cars as the test car of the day, and everyone gets to trash it, uhm..drive it, so we can compare times in same car. Award points just like SV Challenge. I'd volunteer my car first. One problem is we would have to limit the number of competitors (top 4 in SV Challenge points?).
