I think Vicky Brit had a racer's rack a few years ago... it was $400. I
can't recall if it was a brand-new part or reconditioned.

I guess one of the things I'm curious about is if .9% is a substantial
change from stock. I'm not certain if the Racetorations rack is:

a full-blown racer's rack (which may not be ideal for autocrossing and
nice-weather street cruising),

or just another kewl, shiny car part I can dump my money on to impress the
rice boys with (very pretty-looking, but essentially useless).

these are also available NEW as of the last year or so, although the new
ones might be yet more expensive; and b: wouldn't an early TR4 rack (2.5
turns lock-to-lock) accomplish the same thing, assuming you could find a
serviceable one?
