If possible we should try to make the second prototype car a roadster if possible becuase of the additional bracing that could come into play with productions kits.
Yeah sometimes its annoying..

I usually start in second except on hills or heavy traffic. The pros to it are in stop and go traffic its nice to just cruise at 3mph... and I live on a dirt road so I like being able to go nice and slow lol... Although I have always wanted a car with paddle shifters.
