Hey thanks! How was the drive? It was great weather that day, I'm sure it was a blast. I remember your car from the CUSCC Show - it had the cooler in the frunk right? That was so cool, I was talking about that the other day.

Hopefully there will be many more pictures this coming race! I hope to do some body work on the beast one day too so I can actually give it a good life. It needs some lovin' :-)

So far it's done pretty well! I was pretty worried when I talked to Jeremy (owner of the MKII MR2 Rally Car below). He said during real rallies it drove great... during the rallycrosses it understeered like hell.

He was right, during the first lap I found it understeered with too much gas and it understeered with no gas. But it was not too hard to figure out and I pulled off a first place win in stock 2WD!

My friend in his Escort was pretty pissed. He had been winning all year long in stock 2WD. I think it was the first time a rear wheel drive car won that too. So the 2 did pretty well!!
