Eventually I will end up getting the FE5 control arms, the GMPP steering knuckles, the GMPP axles, GMPP mounts or OTTP Mounts, and after this one goes out (it wont be long) I will pick up the GMPP clutch too. Monday Im having Saturn replace the control arm bushings under warranty so I can wait a little longer. There is so much more money you can throw at this car I'm kind of glad I have somewhat of a limited aftermarket, I would go bankrupt with anything better.

Season starts in Mid Febuary or March usually and last until October.
Every other weekend the SCCA goes to Cohen Stadium. They have other events there as well. Also folks are going to Arroyo Seco for road races but they are more expensive than the SCCA for runs, on the flip side is that your not waiting behind 20-30 car for your 1 minute runs there and you don't have to work the course at Arroyo Seco.

Auto x is life beyond the 1/4 and focuses on handling and the most important part of the car...the driver rather than reaction times and straight speed
