I want $6000 for everything. This car would make a great starter rally/race car. It is built like a tank. We ran it for 4 years and never had any issues with bent control arms or other suspension parts. http://www.specialstage.com/classifi...ct/1549/cat/13

They're running these: http://www.brembo.com/NR/rdonlyres/5...voXsystem1.pdf
I can explain why this doesn't work for us, really quickly. 1.) Monoblock calipers $$$$
2.) it changes the rear caliper to a 4POT which we cannot due to stay in a production group it has to stay as a 2POT.

Good to finally meet you in person Greg. Tell Donnely and Duffy congrats on their win and fix their damn window roller. I was adjusting it everytime they came to the start line for them for 2 days!
Interesting 2 days with some good stuff and some bad. Cancelled stages at the end of Saturday due to a bad accident and medical stuff holding up the rally, some radio issues. Weather was beautiful if a little cold in the evenings. the garbage can chicken was perfect. Kind of funny to see rms walking around with a shirt with a big subaru emblem on it. Sinner.
Quote of the rally came over the radio.
Control "Yeah, tell sweep they have a car on its side to pick up out on stage 2"
Sweep "How do we know which one it is"
Control" It will be the one on its side"

No No No, that was good but the best one was....
Sweep or Zero "Hello, anyone at service! Anyone!"
Poor Crew Member from the Braid "Yes I'm at service"
Sweep or Zero "Oh thank god!, we need 100 hamburgers! all of the voluntery marshalls ate through they're dinner!"
And I have to say he actually came through with it for them he negotiated 70 hamburgers and left his crew and team to assist with the request.

We didn't run, rear brake issues. Looking to scrap this year and focus on next year. Wish it was otherwise but development on a new platform takes time.
