While it seems to use high end...

I've been to this track a few times now. No organized racing, which is fine by me. The track is fun, and there are a few regulars out there. Seems to be kind of a good old boy system among them. ...

Well, I took my own advice. LHS is carrying the 400 for under $400. What a machine... Yet still seems to crash just as easy as my CP, for twice the price.

Also, when will the stir straw body posts become available?
