It sounds like it's just too UNSAFE to use, even at the slow speed of
Smitty's Briggs & Stratton.

I would probably be violating some terrorist law if I shipped something so
dangerous, either airborne, or especially overseas.

We need the cardiac exercise of turning the full 6 turns (got NO idea what
the # is), lock to lock, when autocrossing.  Who cares about carpal tunnel,
when you can practice with this car, and get some seriously quick hand
speed?  That also gives you better accuracy whilst straightening out the
curves during autocrosses.

I guess we'll just take it off, and throw it away.  Recycling is big bucks
these days.  Bet I could get $2.00 for it at the junk yard.  (VBG)
