    Five years ago it was still mostly traction control used an excuse why you got beat.


    As far as juicing, the good sh*t costs a lot more than 20 bucks a can. Still, juicing is kinda dangerous, but it can definitely save guys money in the long run. I'm of the opinion that it should be legal on the local/regional level but I'm okay with it being outlawed at national touring shows.

    Also they all have the rf stuck so far out there to compensate the roll over its at least a tire width wider than the rr..isnt there a max tread width the front can be wider than the rear...I know its the thing to do right now but it makes the cars look goofy as far as im concerned...

    Tire prep is only dangerous when you outlaw it. People started using exotic chemicals to go undected. Make it legal and there are many nontoxic chemicals you could use.

Cheaper than the shocks on the other 3 corners of the car.

    Just watch the video from the post above. That company rep stated the are selling them for $450. That is a lot cheaper than the 4 way adjustables that they have been running.

    They won't be banned because of the cost like they want you to believe... they will be banned be cause some people won't have the knowledge or the will to learn how to make them work.

    Very well said. Do not see that often on here.

    They don't want innovation. This sport was built by innovative, mechanically smart men. It Is now a plaything for guys who don't mind getting dirty, but would be at home taking their Porsche to a track day.

    That what wrong with you two, you supposed to put on tired, not do whippets with it. Now it make all since with you two lol.

    Jr you might be dead but that brain might be lol.. jk with you two. They should let them use goat piss, cheaper in long run.

    Think they are starting ban to much stuff, more they ban, more money they will spend find another way to play in gray area to get the traction they want. That $20 can lot hell of cheaper.

    ROFL. Once they were beautiful graceful machines. Now they look like a porn queen posing FDAU with a fat lip and pigeon toe'd on her left foot.
