Glad to hear everything ended up safe! Had I been there...
... you would have had a ghey car as 3rd option to beat around as well! Plus I damaged your beloved 4000 already back in April. 
\ You should send those cloth line pics to Jeff Foxworthy! LoL!
I would think driving in all those diff cars back to back is a great experience in itself. Heck, that's what they do at test pilot schools! They got stuff from jet fighters to prop planes to gliders (no hot air balloons tho). Variety builds good experience!

And because of this, I will build it bigger better and stronger once again :-P.

lol.. It'd sure make cleaning the sand out from the beach trips easier :-P
but though tempting, it's not going to happen anytime soon...
I will probably start taking measurements for the roll hoop I'm going to design for it though

Nice saabaru! Any idea what fluid/pads/lines The Goldie is running?
I've run ATE Superblue, stock lines, and HP+ pads at the track on my WRX wagon and they've treated me well.

you're telling me!
though truth be told, I'm more annoyed with the brakes that make a constant droaning noise when going <40mph than having to fix this stuff.

haha, I woulda bought the boobaroo too if I broke it I think ;)
and like I said, I hardly pushed the car to it's fullest capabilities just because it wasn't my car, and I'd treat noggy the same . My dad's on the other hand... I pushed that one pretty good, but still didn't go full tilt... hence why I was 2 seconds slower around the track than he was
