Default Im a Young guy New to the Set

I kno im kinda young to be worried bout street racing an all but im new but im not new see i grew up around cars an i just started thinking a couple of months back an i came to a conclusion that i wanted to get into the life style around cars. I might not have my lisences yet but im getting them soon and im looking to net work an maybe get advice on a newbie tuner that will be a good cheap starter.

you're young. you've been around cars. you want to be more around cars.

then be smart and keep to legal track events.

go to car meets.

stay away from racing on the streets.

welcome to TR and enjoy.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
