I figured you were at RFR after mentioning borrowing a helmet from Van.

As far as speed, I would expect Ray's car to be up there. The fastest I've seen in my car is 130 at RFR. The fastest I've been at T-hill is a little over 100, but that was back when my car was in STX trim with a stock turbo'd 2.0L motor. I haven't been back since I did the STi swap.

I'm kinda surprised that Ray's only got a 4-point cage, considering his fabrication background. A good cage not only makes the car much safer, it also helps a ton with handling if it's tied into the suspension mounts.
