    Luck has nothing to do with racing and you know it. Make sure your bolts are tight, and go easy on the NoS.

    What kind of racing are you talking about? Dragracing I hope???
    (SPOILER)My S-10 used to run the quartermile in 10.5 seconds. There ain't a comparable thrill to that.

    I'm not going to wish you luck because winners don't need luck. So, I hope you have fun in your race.

    I'm back!


    And I didn't win. I tried really hard and I actually had the lead for while in both races, but my suspension settings still need some more track time to get them dialed in. It was really hard on the tires I had. They were old tires, and just couldn't stand the abuse. I'm also pretty rusty (I hadn't been on this particular race track in 8 years), and I'm sure I didn't have my lines down perfect, so both the car and driver need polishing.

    I did manage two second place finishes, so I'm trying to keep the ol' chin up. There's still a lot to do to make this car truly competitive. The car didn't implode, so there's that.

    Thanks for all the warm wishes! I'm still alive! Just very, very tired.

    The car class is called ITA. It looks like this. That video is actually of the course I plan to race at here in a few weeks, if everything works to plan. I haven't raced there in......10 years? eep!

    You didn't win, but second place is nothing to sneeze at. I'm impressed and I hope you go out there and continue being damn awesome!

    NASCAR is low tier, I'm hoping he goes F1 or something awesome.

    While I could technically be picked up by a scout to drive for a bigger, professional team the odds of it happening are abysmal. Even those "big teams" wouldn't be anything anyone has heard of because it's not NASCAR or F1.

    This is all done for fun, and certainly not to make money. Much, much more the opposite. I will get some pictures and/or videos and tell you all about it if people are actually curious. I warn you, I'm afraid you'll be bored to tears.
