I'm gonna assume they make some sort of medicine strong enough to fix your problem.





OK, probably not. Heh.

How many miles are on it, and how much did you grab the car for?

It pissed me off and I sold it. STella has since been rear sway bar'd and has a new exhaust. She is making her first appearance at the Lancaster County Corvette Club auto-x tomorrow I will take plenty of pics of 'vette destruction(Mark is running as well so this is a likely possibility)

Uh Im sunburnt and I just woke up. The car ran as well as can be expected for a stock non-acr the driver on the other hand well he is fucking useless. Out of the 6 runs I had today I had one clean one 54.467 a built ST car with a fast driver had a 50.5xx, Mark with his race tires and LSD was a 49.9xx. FTD was a world challenge driver (Chip Herr) in his shifter kart at a 39.9xx. In all honesty I doubt STella had anything left I could have run for the rest of time and not done much better. I did finish mid pack amongst a bunch of vettes which was uber cool. Ill stop rambling and give you pics:

Ghetto suspension revamp:
acr rear springs on sensitracs
Uber base (SDC) front springs on whatever struts were on the car
Sport front bar 22mm
2gn R/T rear bar 19mm

I finally replace the one rear bearing/hub that has been bothering me since I got the car.

PA state championship auto-x this weekend. Im working on the driver mod. Here is a quick run down of the competition:
93 Civic SI: As close to built for the class as you can come with a very fast driver
93 Sentra SE-R: Mostly stock. The best of the best for tires and a lunatic behind the wheel
06 GTI: Probably shouldnt be in the class we'll figure out tomorrow.
