Whats peoples opinions on slammed cars? and on "cars set up for proformance", i think its all opinion if you like cars low to the ground then do it. if you want to turn you car in to a race car... then stop think about it, and then buy a car that is actually a race car. cause a toyota celica isnt really a race car smile.gif

Depends what you consider a race car
Slammed cars can handle good as long as you take the time to set it up right an not just on the ground with stupid bad camber
Most people say more than a 2inch drop for a performance set up is too much
on a race setup your goal is to get you center over gravity as low as possible an to get your axles as parallel as possible with the ground an still have good camber for max grip

and you should, once you lower your car, raise the steering rack to eliminate bump steer if you wanna build a race car. how do you feel about people who like stupid bad camber but know its know its not good for proformance?
