I dont have the space to keep all the little bits and pieces. All the stuff lived in the back of my Tundra until I needed to haul something else, then it all (non hazardous stuff) went in the dumpster.

Just out of curiosity, are you keeping the original steering rack or is it beneficial to move up to the quicker steering on the SE?

For road racing the standard rack is quick enough, and since we pull out the power steering we really don't want to increase the effort required to turn the wheels either.

Why did you knock out the windows? That would increase drag by a lot.

Finding the cell phone on the floor pan actually made me lol.

What suspension are you currently running? I am running the exact same wheel setup 15x7 +35 with a different tire profile (205/50R15) and am afraid that I will rub in extreme cornering situations. Do you clear the fenders with those 215/50R15 tires when you drive the car hard?
