By no means am I new or even a noob. I just haven't touched base with my Mitsu roots or my CSM heritage in a long time. So here's my little intro and a quick hello. Some might remember my old car. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3013773/1991-dodge-colt Well I'm working on another one....my third turbo'd CSM actually. Anyhow, good to be back.

I would think not getting traction til 4th gear would net a lot higher trap than 105 :P The RS bumper is pretty sweet, looking good.

It was the one wheel peel causing the traction issues. Non equal length shafts didn't help either. Never officially ran that car at the track, only outside of town at the 1/4 we had marked off.

Darkhorse is my brother. I'm actually working on his Mirage right now. Have some surprises for everyone with this build.

I am one of the few here that remember these little facts! Well, maybe a few more than I think, but not that many.

Tim, we old fogies remember a lot that we shouldn't and little that we should. I remember selling you 1.8 upgrades for our little 4g15's before we stepped up to rear engines in cars that could actually handle them.

Jay, I look forward to showing these guys a few new tricks with you brother.
