very helpful write up thank you.

small point about the difference in kerb weight between 360 and 355... 30% less? that seems like an awful lot, no?

I believe that that the 30% weight reduction was only in the space frame. Not in the total curb weight of the car.

Amazing writeup Dana.

I just wanted to point out that your rear tires are almost 4 years old (week 46 of 2005)
They might have plenty of thread life left, but they won't be as sticky.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to TUUNER again.

No sense in letting any of that perfectly good, unburnt rubber you currently have go to waste......maybe its time for some "power oversteer" sessions

Actually, I had to resort to Superglue. Those Fiero badges are hard to cover up!
