Nahh..! That was like.. over.. a month ago. Man, it has really taken some beating But, this is my first car and I guess it's to be expected. And I've got two other bodies waiting to get painted!

I think the hardest hits came just a week ago (not counting a couple of spectacular jumps out of the raceway), when I installed a differential stiffing kit, and I just couldn't control the car. It turned out it was mostly the controller settings that were making my driving so twitchy, and yesterday after a friend adjusted some settings, I was really able to keep up with the big boys. Even shaved almost a second off my previous PB lap time that was done with the default open diff! Still, got a lot to improve on my driving lines..
