Yep, mine's about as low as yours was, but the exhausts go under the sump, leaving me with... wait for it... one inch ground clearance! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

Hilarious until you take your sister for a lift, ask her whether there are any speed bumps along the way (she thinks hard and says "no"), only to find out, half way down a one-way street that there aren't any speed bumps, but there *are* several 6" raised pedestrian crossings... Metal on tarmac is a horrible sound. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
