Thanks Ronnie,

It looked like it could be street legal, and since it ran mid-16's (altitude adjusted that would've been close to the 18.0 I got out of mine back in '93 when I first started racing that car), I thought it could be street legal. Now I just wish I had the video footage again to enjoy looking at...so to Mike Ellis & to you Ronnie and the late Steve Taylor's other friends/family (to borrow from Siskel & Ebert movie critic fame), TWO THUMBS WAY UP!!!

I often wonder why no one other than those two and now I are the only Cavalier Z24 (or Cavalier period) racers??? I feel I have a good combination, and once I get my driving skills back up to par, I might be someone (else), to give those 12.99 & quicker Stockers fits...I'm sure trying!
