I dont know much aboutthe bag game, but I've seen some crazy builds and track cars that are on bags. I cant see it being good for a track car, but it must work out well since i see track cars wit hthem?

I'm not one to go that route, because I'd argue for a serious track car it's not the lightest or simplest (more stuff to fail) option, but from what the accuair guys have said it's nothing like oldschool bags, and they can perform well. I don't have room for it in my car though. Roadster trunks are tiny, and with my fuel pumps, battery and relays there's really not enough room to spare to keep the car even remotely functional.

I hate to leave my z every time I park it anywhere. Someone tried to five finger fiddle my $15 dollar antenna at the last meet. I don't think I would be able to leave it if it looked like yours. Too many hateful idiots out there who can't appreciate and just want to ruin. It's like that wide body Civic Si Tein built, stolen out of locked storage. Just too crazy beautiful for some to handle. Or too many parts into one car to chop.

stuff happens, you can be aware and do waht you can, but in the end, people will be shady if and when they want.. ive been robbed more times than almost anyone i know. Its just a part of human nature and life sadly.
Ive had everything i owned stolen at one point in my life by my roommate and his pals who were professional movers .. yeah.. crazy stuff.

Damn, that's rough. I had a car that I had just completed building stolen and stripped. It was found on it's belly near Compton. The fear of it happening again makes me paranoid.
