Re: Best Feeling Ever

I went to BIR this weekend and a light bulb turned on. I watched that auto v8 Porsche 928 running. He was very consistent, running about the same times all the time down the drag strip. I thought to myself, what's the point of that? It's the same all the time... Is that fun? Where my car is at, with my poor driving skill, and manual tranny, a trip down the track can vary so much. It just made me kinda think the 1/4 is worthless.
I have a lot of suspension stuff on my 1g, but I still have this feeling it will be a pile of crap on a road course. On BIR's site it's $295 for a session with your car on the track with an instructor. Sounds like a deal!

On topic: I was surprised this guy even wanted to go! BTW I am in no way saying it is OK to race on the street; it's stupid, dangerous, and illegal.
