The car definitely turned a lot more using the kit setup without gluing the sidewalls. So, thanks for cluing me up to proper tire care. The car is awesome. I need to make it turn a little more to suit my (lack of) style, but I bested my previous fast lap by 2 tenths several times throughout the night.
The lower bumper plate seems a little bit fragile. I'm pulled the screws out of it during a single front impact. Is there a trick to making them last other than not hitting anything? I only hit two boards all night, and one of them killed it. :-)
