Well accord95vtec, I still don't think there is an official FSF date yet, but when it comes you guys should go.

Even if you guys are not sure about participating there is also a good area for spectating to see exactly how it works.

If you do though, most competitive drivers end up regretting not registering and running since you will find yourself wanting to run the course yourself after watching a few people do it.

As far as me being an internet hardass, it does occasionally happen but that is one of the common pastimes here as you are already well aware. Then again I will also talk shit in person as MinGreyCobra and a few other TR members can attest to. Hopefully your buddy 97blkz ends up realizing that too so he can enjoy the TR experience more.

Either way, I would like to take you up on your boxing offer. I have not had to trade blows with anyone since college, and the agressive part of me would enjoy brushing up on those skills and engaging in some fun competion too boot.

I also have a stack of $20 bills in front of me, therefore 20>50 and 20>100 and 20>1000. $20 bill FTW.

Your observations are correct but occasionally a situation will arise, either on the internet or face to face, where chit chat turns to shit talk.

As my thousands of TR posts and people who know or have met me will attest to its the exception and not the norm.

Oh, bullshit. Everybody knows that you drive a Porsche. And everybody knows that Porsche drivers are pricks.

Yeah, I'm talkin' a little shit. At least your Porsche is the correct color.

(Hey, isn't it about time we put this thread to bed?)

I want to meet you either way, at a track, at some hang out, or you can come over. mainly just to pick your brain. i'd like to talk from everything about racing to politics. just hang out , drink beer, and talk shit to each other. this was my wifes suggestion because shes tired of me typin all the time on TR.

You've never said anything nice to me....on the board or in person.

Well auto x is a little different than I imagined! race the clock is cool and all but not that exciting to me I need that other car to pass or pass my ass ! I would still try it out but I do not think I will be a regular! If I had the money i would prefer to run a course with other vehicles! But the risk is to great ! so I apologize for being wrong but It took you guys long enough to say it dammm! 400hp why the fuck would I be scared to hit cones on a track ? Fuck sakes I took a job that paid $748 a month dodging bullets , and cones and your opinions will scare please boys do not flater yourself!

Most people don't start talking shit until they actually know a little about what they're talking about.

See, if you really thought that driving a car through some cones was going to be dangerous now you know why I called you a pussy.

Now you have no excuse not to try it.

Once you start trying to get better times than the other vehicles, with the differences sometimes boiling down to the thousandth of a second, you will find that it should satisfy your competitive urges.

The best part is that you can focus 100% on driving your car to the best of your abilities instead of worrying if some other car is going to hit you.
