I was grided by Dave Schotz (2nd place ESP). His car looks completely
streetable. I think he primarily has wheels/tires and some basic suspension
mods. Sam Strano's car is basically stock (1LE) with wheels/tires. Also,
both of the Talon's (7th and 8th place) are daily drivers and are very
streetable.
