I had the same problem and thats why I got AWD, but added 200 lbs to the car.

I guess you win some, you lose some, but 24/7 traction is pretty darn nice! So as far as I'm concerned they can pour WD-40 all over the track...it won't matter...lol

anyone know the specific Helmet rule?? Do they allow open faced helemts? (it's a SA2005, so the only issue could be that it's not a closed face)

thanks!

Bad influence, you are! I scheduled the meeting, and I'm running it tho. I need the stock price to go up by June 31st to get a fatty return for our "share value!" I guess I'll sit this one out.
