So I need a car to drive on track.

Due to unforseen circumstances my car will not be ready for the convention. I had a car to drive lined up but that fell through.

I have one track event and 4 years of autocorssing under my belt. I will be driving in the beginner class so anyone in intermadiate or advance willing to help me out?

It wont go unrewarded.


Please either post or pm me. Thank you very much.

If someone can help Russ out I am sure you won't be sorry! He will take care of you and treat your car right!

You can drive mine. I'm in advanced class so there'll be no conflict. Plus, it's gutted with big brakes, big radiator and race tires! You get to learn your bad habits early.

Are we instructing? I didn't know. That's okay with me.

Thank you sooo much. I was not looking forward to a rental car on track. THANK YOU.

The standard "you break it, you fix it" applies. I would be shocked, to say the least, were anything to happen in the Beginner's group!

Russ is working on a 500WHP custom turbo car. He can afford to fix and I should anything happen I am sure he would make it right!

Bruce, are you towing from Houston? Man, I hate to have your fuel bill.

Let's see:
~3300 miles
13 mpg
$3.00/gal.

Approx 250 gals of fuel
Approx $750 for fuel

It would hardly be any cheaper to fly now and rent a thrasher.

...and not nearly as much fun. There's nothing like driving your own car on track. Still though, that extra $1/gal really adds up. I just jope it doesn't hit $4 this summer as many are predicting. I'd be forced to cancel half of my HPDE season
