my fav part of this thread so far was the chik-fil-a part...
and that sleek an cleeeeeeean zenki haha likin that car more an more, keep drivin dude
the more u "practice" the better, especially on the track, u have absolutely no reason to hold urself back on the track so u definently do learn much more an become a waaay better driver
and as far as ur reckless driving goes...id settle down, tickets an suspended licenses/insurance aint cheap, trust me lol
but definently get urself to the track ull luv it!

hahha, thanks bro, guys like you give guys like me motivation to do more work...

as far as the reckless driving, it's not reckless... i never do more than 5mph over the speed limit, it's just whenever i drive, i follow that imaginary line in the road that very few people see... it's not like i'm throwing my car around the streets and highways of florida, i'm just driving quickly... there's a time and a place for driving like that... what i meant, is i kill on ramps, especially the wide swooping ones, but only if they're clear and free of traffic, and hug street curbs to get line right....

a lil update though, today is big big job hunt day, maybe i can get one, hopefully i WILL get one, cause that will be when i can finally start turning wrenches again, instead of just doing little trivial things like paint and wet sanding, minor repairs etc.... wish me luck guys...

Street drifting leads to two things

1. Bad drifting

2. Legal Issues

lol you da man USMC lol

as a little update, i just got semi sponsored by my local Z car shop, got all kinds of decals, helmet, and free tires.... he says also that if i keep up with it it'll be free shop hours and parts at cost... the owner of said shop has 4 SCCA championships, and many top 5 places under his belt, a SCCA intructor, and has the fastest Z car in the E class of the SCCA... his name's Don Ahrens... cool guy if i don't say so myself...

Talk about placing your company name in the hands of faith! LOL! Good stuff though, sponsors are definitely the way to go.

bah..... he knows i'm not a pro or anything, hell, i think he even knows i'm a total rook, BUT now would be the best time to start vesting in me... i'm just getting started, and everyone needs some kind of break.... and he knows my passion... all i've ever wanted to do was be a driver... some kids dream of being a cop, firefighter, astronaut, ETC... ill i've ever wanted do since i was kid was to drive.. and if he helps me reach that goal, then i'll put any stickers on my car... and beat the daylights out of it..
