oh, and by the way, I picked my yellow top up today and scored it for free... told the guy that I'd put his company sticker on my rear window and tell my buddies about him. Ah, the early stages of sponsorship. He was a little weary, but I assured him that he'd get more business. Then, when I told him I wanted 10 more to sell to people, he looked at me with a look of confusion... kinda like, I thought you were going to send business my way. haha

damn, these suckers are heavy... I think it's time for a torsion bar upgrade. And maybe dual batteries to put weight on both sides of the front end. Any ideas/info on dual yellow tops?!

don't they make ones that have the terminal molded onto the end of the cable, or is it just a water tight seal?
