I really wish I lived near Vegas so I could join in on the fun. Forrest's shop looks ridiculous.

my first vert was pretty floppy... the verts have some extra under-bracing to keep it more firm, but they flex alot.

How's the vert feel? I've heard some people say it handles a bit different than the coupe

I've never "driven" a hatch fc before, so I cant really compare the two. but I can say that compared to my old rx8 I really dont feel any abnormal body flex that you wouldnt expect from any other non caged car. my vert feels super solid if you ask me. only chassis mods the car has right now is front and rear strut tower braces and I certainly felt a difference from those.

and yeah TN drift allows tandem with out cages on smaller tracks like this one. big road courses you must have a cage to tandem.
