If I can get some MT I'd be down, but I'm short on funds this month. Just tracked it twice in the last two months and already blew a fuse and battery because of it. lol I DO have another Protege that'll race for sure tho.

I totally agree on you on this..The only thing I hate about Autocross are the stupid A$$ cones laying around everywhere...It would be totally sick if we could track our cars over at Sebring or something...Now that would be SICK!!!

I used to work there and it's not cheap. If I recall it's well over 5000 a day, and that's only for the north end of the track (road course). That means no long straight aways. It can be done but we need to get a list of people going to cut down on the cost.

You can - but it costs $$$$$$$ to do it and their safety inspections are pretty tight. I'm not sure if you have to be a member of the SCCA or not. I was involved with them for a while - I'll ask around, but I believe there are restrictions to it including being a member and having to actually go to quite a few races to stay as one as well. My car is built for twisties - does excellent on the Dragon. I'm not as good dragging because I have a problem sticking the launch. But I do 107mph at the 1/4. My 60ft needs ALOT of work and the stock 18's don't help much.

Let us stop arguing please. Christine was saying it with passion because of her brother, and knowing Milton, this guy does not drive recklessly and I can vouch for that. We went to Tampa and Milton called me on my cell phone to stop me from my "spirited driving," passing and overtaking the 18 wheelers on rt. 80. But i was getting the rush down shifting. lol
I also asked Christine @ HIN if she does race, and she gave me the same answer, without elaborating about her brother. I thought she was psycho with her answer. It is just her normal reaction to answer that way when she hears about racing, but I didn't know that time why. Know she earns my respect.
If there is anybody guilty here, its me. I really get psycho when I street race especially when it's rush hour. That's why I don't need the boost or the big displacements, for me its all in the driver. I will race anybody @ 5 PM @ 826 or I-75, and let me see your FI or whatever. M5, corvette, M3, AMG, they all mean **** to me when it's rush hour @ I-75 and 826.
We all like to drive fast, reason we have all these cars, to think otherwise is just being stupid, but as long as we do it responsibly and we don't hurt anybody from our stupidity.
Racing for me is not as bad as driving intoxicated. I see a lot of people posting that they want to drink Friday, NOW how come there is no argument about this?
Maybe because you people put the liquor in your stomach and not in your head?
Again stop the argument. You don't know each other that much, so it doesn't make sense.
