eric, u only need bout $150 more right?
I pushed Hector pretty hard on the Dragon when we ran it that Friday afternoon and he did pretty good IMO, so he isn't slow, although I know your just raggin' him
As far as that Kia 5, its actually supposed to be a pretty good handler, well, for a $12K car anyways. If your buying and not leasing, get a good tire/wheel package, you've got enough time IIRC, the "Dream Car Garage" show modded a Kia hatch, although it isn't the Kia 5, its worth looking into what they did As most of us know its more about handling than horsepower out on the Dragon, so the Kia 5 might surprise people like the CSVT/FSVT does to BMW/Mini owners do
Hopefully next year you will be able to keep up with me......the 2.6 pulley is in and all I got to say is HOT DAYUM!!!! Probably new suspension next year (Koni/GC).....and maybe some more goodies under the hood.
