A perceived "Threat" Nobody wants to race if they feel they have inferior equipment.

I guess because for a noob, installing wheel adapters is a "Project"... Think about it... many people these days, don't even know how to change a tire on a real car. They look at a jack like it's some kind of alien technology. I never laughed harder than when I read somebody put sand in the intake of their car at full throttle, to do a cheap "Port and Polish" job...
