Message	I noticed that Scott Smith placed a rag around his power steering reservoir during the Z convention. When I saw it, I didn't know why he had it there, and honestly, thought it looked ghetto. Then I autocrossed my car. Wish I'd put a rag around my reservoir. I think a rag around the reservoir would make much more sense than trying to introduce a cooler to the power steering system.
