Knightmare, sorry about nearly stealing your thread man, it won't happen again.

Am I the only guy who worries about traction? According to the poll, I am.

what mods are on your car that you're worried about traction that much at those speeds? i mean jay is worried cause you has a pretty moded large CU motor in a lighter car, but for you to be worried about traction at those speeds you must have some serious mods. . .
