still has stock hood and almost all of the chrome trim around the windows. i have tried to get the car as light as possible. i have had it out and made a few shakedown passes but nothin whole-hearted. i have seen some decent short-times but still a lil unstable after about 400'.
im going to put a ARB in it and see if it will leave straight and quit twistin the body. the current ARB is not working.
