You know, I think I misspoke (miswrote?); I have DRILLED rotors on the wagon, I have SLOTTED/DRILLED rotors on the Fairmont. Often Lost Disorder...

Either way a source on high-performance rotors that are known to last would be great! It sounds like you have a good amount of first-hand knowledge to contribute.
I've never heard someone NOT say they saw improvements when putting in poly control arm bushings. If you're doing autocrossing I'd encourage it even if the bushings aren't totally shot.

You know, the only thing keeping me from stiffening everything up is the inherent flexibility of the chassis. I have tried to adhere to the soft spring/stiff shock theory of making flexi-flyers handle. I would love some suggestions for stiffening the frame/body so poly bushings do more than make everything squeak... Maybe this is not the venue, I don't know.If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough...Comment
