			i managed to roll it doing dougnuts with the tyres let down.. had done it in the same spot plenty of times but this time she grabed and over she went.
this is not Pips TTC one. it is my weekend car. i am taking it in Willowglen this year. No spring over, no fancy mods and a claped out engine. should be fun

			2 inch body will get them under fine. you iwll have to cut  out the rear guards a bit but it is easy,
i got 46's under with cut guards and no spring over

would you believe i drove it all around the city like this with no power steering. as i got over about 50kph the tyres would go tall like a drag car does and start scrubbing on the guards so i had to keep it under 50.
it was crazy fun
