I think the journal could be accomplished with vbGarage ..its kinda like a profile for your car .. with pics.. and an area to write stuff.. if you just wanted to lists the mods etc you could.. or if you wanted to keep a journal of the build up you could.. i think i will add this and see what people think. heres some examples of vbGarage

Graves send me a PM on the test drive stuff with what your thinking.. i'd be looking for regular people to test drive stuff and write an article.. once a month on a car.. any car.. doesnt have to be performance.. could also include links to the dealership they dealt with and perhaps the sales persons name.number ..

I'd also look for people who attend events regularly to do a small write up for TR .. we could have an events coverage forum. whether it was a small get together.. a car show.. a drift event.. runday sunday or a TR event..

I am going to work on an automated sign up for our track events awell.. when i get some time
