I am not a racer, my LR RWD is as much car as I ever wanna drive. My old cars would have bad shocks and I would drive them like that for years not really aware of issues with the handling. Often don't know I have worn the tread thru to steel until someone points it out. We got a VW Bus at the factory in Wolfsburg when I was 4 and I drove in that for the first 1/3rd of my life, couldn't get that thing going 55 MPH driving down a mountain. All my friends growing up drove Dodge Challengers and the ilk, but I could get all of them at once into my bus.
Did anyone pay attention to the SpC during the race? It's now paved, perhaps it'll stay open even when races are not going.
