Does anyone have any experience with that? Any help would be apprieciated, thanks.

You really think the car will light enough without PS. I have driven 2200 lb cars without PS but a caged 370Z is going to be around 2800 lbs with most of weight over front end plus driver and fuel. So 3000 lbs of car/driver.

I'm looking at electric PS but haven't even considered going without PS.
