Try here you will get a better response. LINK

Id love to get back in to R/Cing but time is a major factor in it.

lol........no that closed a longggggg time ago

now he is up on ulmerton and 66th...very nice track but the owner is a asshole.i went out there my once(my first time at the tracK)with my tc3 and raced,well i was doing very well and all his little shop buddies put mod motors in cuz they couldnt keep up and when i still took first in the A-main they wanted to tear my car down to see if i was cheating.i let them and to their amazment it was the 27 turn stock like we should be running.so then i call the 3 friends of his out for their cars to get checked and he said "oh i know them they dont cheat they race here all the time"..i know they did you can hear the differance between a stock a mod motor.....so i no longer track race becuz of clicks like this ruining the hobby........mike

if you guys do get this together let me know, i'll come up and watch, and i think snagging an empty parking lot for this would be easier than one say...for drifting
