What's the TL;DR on AP1 vs AP2 for the track?
And I'm also curious about what turn the MRLS crash happened?

AP1's are cheaper and rev to 9k. They are a bit trickier to drive stock vs stock, but once you start modifying suspension components, that doesn't really matter anymore. I think AP2's look much better and mine is tuned to redline at 8600rpms so I don't feel like I'm missing out on too much of the 9k. 06 and later are the only ones that can be flash tuned with Hondata. Anything earlier needs standalone engine management for tuning.
As for my crash, I was sliding through turn 4 on throttle and near the edge of the track the rear wheels abruptly gained lots of grip (was on re71r's) and hooked up while I was on throttle and still had some opposite lock. It basically threw my car spinning towards the left side tire wall. The gravel trap slowed me down some, but I still slammed into the tire wall spinning and 3 sides of the car got damaged. Luckily it was mostly cosmetic and I was totally fine with full safety gear (6 point and HANS).
