haha didn't make the Teaguer connection... He's a pretty knowledgeable guy online, at least, so it should be in very good shape.

compared to an eta, anything is fun haha. You'll have a blast driving it, everyone rags on how slow they are, when in reality...you just have to know how to drive the car for it to be quick.

Don't be hatin' on the etas stevo, they're actually pretty fun cars, although in more of a DD-ish way.

Oh I'm not hating, I drove one for almost a week when my car was down. I fell in love with their torque, but they've got nothing up top. On the other hand, m42's have nothing down low, but are a blast up top. Definitely a completely different animal.

OP, did teaguer take the suspension off before you picked it up?
