                      Real Street in Brainerd.

                      Stock style suspension
                      No tubs
                      no wheelie bars
                      Finished interior
                      Exhaust to behind drivers seat with muffs
                      DOT tires on the rear
                      Horn
                      Wipers

                                      looks good, planning on making any soundclips?

                                      N/A is the expensive way to go slow

                                          Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
                                          Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
                                          Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
                                          Torque is how far you take the wall with you
