Here in the midwestern corn belt E85 is very common. The last place I drove by had E85 at $2.09/gal. while E10 Regular was $2.89/gal. 93 octane and diesel were both around $3.59.

Regular is back down to about 3.20 here. E85 is usually same price as premium at the two places that have pumps. That's about 3.70 right now.

Usually around here E85 is about a dollar or so cheaper than 91 (we don't get 93 because California lol, with the exception of a couple random stations that carry 100 for like $10/gal).

When a vendor pisses me off, let alone one I applied for a job at but wasn't "qualified" for, and I find the equivalent product that also saves us thousands of dollars a year elsewhere.

No back facing rear lunch room seats means no go for me.

It is also one of the models I have in my stash to build some day which is the closest I will ever come to actually having one. Not a show stopper https://www.bratforsale.com/1978-198...-in-rogers-ar/

Those look like they might be the right "less serious" option to replace the T3's I currently have equipped... if I decide to go that route. Very nice. On the other hand I used quite a range of LS/HS comp settings this last season - from the usual decent surface on an all slalom course wanting just a bit more LS to an insanely bumpy surface that needed everything softer... so maybe not yet.

I was asking what spring rates the SS1's would work with and was told up to 8kg will work on the SS1's but the SS2's will handle 9kg which is into the usable range for track cars with a medium amount of aero. GTA only allows single adjustable in enthusiast class and there are not any good options unless you want to spend 4k on Xida's from 949 or buy MCS, JRZ's. ect. These fill a nice gap in the market.
