You know, it is funny and scary at the same time but, if I EVER get her done, I do want to go around and see how she does on some auto-x and even a road course or two, joking with the UMI folks about coming after the Green Machine. But, truthfully, when you spend $4K on custom wheels and tires and then learn you can snap a c-clip and leave an entire axle back in the ditch probably as you are piling up the rest of the car . . . the drum to disk conversion becomes an easy decision. With my declining health I probably won't be able to physically beat the car enough to actually require rear disks in order to gain a 1/10th or 2 through improving braking performance.
Oh, and it will look cool through those purdy wheels . . .
There is always that . . .
EDIT: Of course, if I ever do get serious about trying to "track" this car regularly, I have to get a 2nd set of beater wheels/tires and at least 275 rubber on all 4 corners anyway. Definitely not going to beat up those purdy Sabers. That reminds me, I need to check on where the hell my center cap rubber seals are? They were backordered and said 4-6 weeks but that was 2 months ago. Still beyond a pisser that US Mags can't properly polish those wheels or send or even sell me extra seals after spending all that money?
Don't get me started . . .
