The official way it's suppose to work. 4cyl go to HS or FSP, and 6 and 8cyl
go to FS or ESP. We have a specific truck class in the L.A. region, kind of
exciting. There's a couple of nearly unrecognizable trucks. I also race in
the San Diego region. Down there I do ESP (2nd place for the season so
far).

Hmm.. traction bars you say? I never seriously considered that, but now
that I think about it one of the other trucks in the region is wearing a
pair. Some time in the future I'm going to ditch the Hotchkis leafs and put
in some fiber glass monoleafs.

What region are you in?
