They only issue I had with it coming down on its own was at 160 with all the windows down, which was pretty interesting.

That being a 30+ year old plus and driving this car requires continual explanation of what the car is, what the car does and therefore that is why I drive the car.

not yet... but then again I am too worried about it breaking on a road course to do another HPDE. Cost of rebuilding a 5 speed verses converting to one is substantial.

LOL- sounds interesting haha. I also dont feel that I should take it up to 168mph again after reading about the IX wings snapping in half due to downforce at those speeds...

the fact that i have to wash it every weekend. and that i have to park outside. but, for those who think it's heavy, drive a truck for a week, then get back in your car. you will appreciate how light and tossable it really is.
