straight headers would suck for being spotted anywhere

they are all like it, if you watch the video's in the thread.

its also amazing to see what a set of "stickies" will do compared to the other tires

I'm not entirely sure the performance of "Eleanor" is entirely down to the stickies - It's also a lighter buggy with better suspension design for speed from what I've seen. It also looks to have been well driven.

Spotting isn't what these cars are about. The "spotting" consists of standing at the top or bottom of the hill and yelling "Holla" for the most part.

I agree I'd run a muffler though

An interesting counterpoint:

Makes cable hill look less scary -

I'll grant you it was dry, and "dominates" is a bit strong, but that car drove it fine on a little motor and air shocks that weren't working.
