"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

You call that fast? Slacker! 
I wish I could do that, it looks like fun. :thumbsup:

Why don't you join the next event? Bring that pretty little silver car. You'd beat me on the straight, but I'd get ya back in the corners.

If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2
Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.

I hope you weren't talking on the cell phone during that! LOL
Cool video. Looks like you were gaining on the car ahead in the turns, but they pulled ahead on the straights. You need some more ponies in that motor!

Your right, I could not keep up with the cars on the straight as they just have way more horsepower than I do. That one in front of me most of the time was a brand new M3 with probably 500 HP. I have 300 HP. The group was a mix. It's based on driver experience, not the car. Remember driving school, not race.
My car is set up for autocross, where low end torque is better than 500 HP. I have all the usual goodies, the engine is chipped, it has a Dinan exhaust, sway bars, adjustable shocks and camber, and some sort of springs, H&R? It's a 95 M3.
I am good at the corners because that is what I do most of the time. I just need more power for the straights. It is most fun tho. The first time I was a bit scared of the speed, but I have overcome that.
