These cars are perfectly suited for dig/drag racing.

You want an 18" square setup or you want to go dig racing? I don't understand the question.

The stock suspension with some SPL bits is more than enough for what I do. If you want to use the steering wheel you should probably ask Jackie Ding or @razorlab

I’d like to use the steering wheel. But not tracking the car. Just want more traction for dig and 60-130. But I would like be able to drive it on windy roads and not be sketchy as well.

What would you suggest for upgrades/setup for dig/roll racing? I won’t be tracking it, but I want it to not die doing the occasional canyon driving.

@zrk I’m looking to upgrade to a Stage 2 Pure Trans but i also want to retain the shift “farts” could flashing XHP help me customize that on and off?

Thanks

@zrk I’m looking to slowly transition from 100% stocks (index funds) to a mixed portfolio that can sustain a modest retired lifestyle that includes driving tracks across America , in about 10 years from now. Everyone claims living off 4% of your total portfolio should be the target. What’s the end game number I should be shooting for?

And any financial podcast you like more? Money Guys, Ramsay, Andrew Giancola, choose FI, to name a few

Changing the trans won't affect the tune, or the shift sound.

I keep a good mixed portfolio, SBUX, NVIDA, F, BAC, AMZN, etc. As well as some significant holdings of QQQ/VTT. Living off of 4% of your total portfolio is a strong move. Your end game number depends on how you want to live.

If you're planning on living a ~$250-300k/yr life forever you should shoot for a 7-8mm dollar retirement account.

I don't listen to any financial advise podcasts or anything. I use common sense and stick to the fundamentals.

I actually used to have 60-70 hot sauces of varying degrees of hot/flavor, but ulcer so no more.

Hi almighty zrk, have you seen failures in manifolds where the coolant/fluid is leaked into the combustion chamber? ...leading to a hydrolock

I've seen some aftermarket manifolds fail yes. I have not seen them hydrolock the engine, but if they fill with coolant... that's gonna happen.
