For brake system flushing, I've always heard that the alcohol routine was only necessary if you were switching from "regular" to silicone or vice versa, since the two varieties are not supposed to mi

It might be reasonable, if you can beg/borrow/rent a decent trailer from some generous road racer type. U-Haul also rents car carriers, but I'm sure their rates are ridiculous. Oh, anywhere from 11

The fastest E-Modified autocrosser in the country is just such a creature; a mildly-ported, Weber-ized rotary in a Sprite (with mucho suspension mods and other pricey goodies). Goes like stink; one
