    That track is a lot of fun. I took the FB around it for parade laps and even though I wasn't allowed to push it, it was loads of fun! Looks like you had a good time in the Porsche.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    Yea. I first saw it in the pits, and had my hopes up. Then when i saw it on the track, it wasnt anything special. He was only out for maybe 3 laps every time attack session.

    Looks like you had fun. Rear engine cars are different animals, but they're a blast. The 7's are good cars too and are actually fairly easy to drive, but they don't have as good a road feel as previous 911's do.

    Did you happen to be at Discover Mills today at the slot car track? Just wondering, if not, then disregard this post. If you're the kid that "builds cars", you need to know who the @#$% you're talking to before you start running your mouth.
