yeah shannon is talking about getting some 15" wheels and taller tires with more sidewall. It'll be interesting to see how it behaves after that.

I've driven the TBSS, nitrous, stall, awd, tune and auto is so damn consistent out there...routinely pulls 1.75 60's not bad for something that weighs that much. The wrx comes out hard too when he launches it right but like any 4 banger, if you get it wrong you're dead meat due to the lack of torque at low rpm.
