I was able to connect the entire infield w/ a bone stock KA, so I dont understand what that means on your car/motor being ready..
The fact that it's a 120k mile KA. Oil pump could use a changing, couple other small things I want for peace of mind. I'm not worried about not being able to link the track or anything, just more so about breaking my motor. I don't live with parents or have a super baller job or anything, and I like to enjoy things other than cars, so not all of my money goes into my car.

At least I do drive, and prove it on many occasions. I just don't think a track day in my car is the most important/smart thing yet. And to be knocking me for that, just makes you sound kinda lame right now honestly. You know I drive, and beat on my car. I just don't trust KA's. At all...

120k is the new 10k. theres nothing lame about wanting you to go track drifting, it is lame however posting street drifting no moving wheel shots and making excuses on why you dont go track drifting. Im being legit here. There are more people out at desoto w/ really nice KA cars that have WAY more miles than you.

Im not sure about desoto, I have to call Jenn about that. But CFRC is every friday in orlando, and Im sure (if anyone wants to make the trip) there is a countyline event soon, its on SFLdrifters and I cannot access that website here. for the dates on upcoming events check there.

Yeah, that'd be awesome.

Installed poly bushings on my front swaybar & endlinks. Car seems to understeer a bit more than it used too. I think its mostly do to the increased roll stiffness putting more stress on the worn out tires. Car seems more flat in the in the front going through corners and because of that its sliding around. Not sure if I like the out-come. I guess I'll wait and see how it is with new tires/alignment.

I need to order that progress bar asap.
