Kind of like "the only thing that holds ME back is misfortune."

But we'll see. I'd like to make an event like this, but experience has taught me not to promise anything; just to keep my mouth shut and show up if I can.

When your car costs more than your average shopping cart you tend to refrain from 11/10ths 100% of the time ..........just messing 'cause I'm not one to talk!

Hehe, I had my wrx out there a long time ago, and I did skip barber formula there last year. Hence, why I asked about getting into a formula series since I enjoyed it.

Yea I gotta throw a few jabs out there now and then, keeps me in the game.

Formula is fun but SPEC racing in general is a blast and getting into a cheaper realm is the best place to start. FSR is a good one if you can find a chassis cheap as they no longer produce new chassis(unless you own a VIN tag). Formula get really expensive, you should see the pile of crumpled control arms in my garage from my sisters last season where she rented out the car to other people. Gotta be $5K in scrap chromoly parts sitting in that box, not to mention the mangled centerlock that's a wall piece in my garage now...

Avoid SPEC Miata at first. That's got to be the most saturated of all spec classes out there. Every race is like watching a pissed off bees nest chasing down one car around the track. I remember watching one race at WGI a few years back on the GS roof, 60+ cars grouped within 30 seconds of each other. Sound like a swarm of bees coming down the straight, then dead silence, then back again.

Spec Miata is also a demolition derby series. When the top competition bring at least one spare car to a race, count me out.

Mike I'd say you have more credibility, but you also have committed to coming the most times without actually showing up. Eric/Moai wont commit to coming, instead he'll change the subject or make excuses about how Allah hates his car or his crazy mystical bad luck is acting up. Excuses.
