I agree that there are ways, but they just aren't in reach with my
pocketbook at the moment. I had hoped that the nitrous solution would
materialize, but it is kind of limited in its application.
But, I am still happy with its performance as is, but more would be
better, eh? :-) I do know one thing; we spent a day at the 2.5 mile
racetrack at Pacific Raceways near Seattle this summer, and it was a
total gas. The Sportline suspension is extremely balanced - can't
wait to do it again.
