haha, thanks for props from anyone who posted them.
QD, dude, I'm seriously not here to call you out, or anything along those lines. I'm just requesting you stop ripping on myself as well as my club. And when I post on remote areas, you don't really know where exactly I'm talking about, so you can't really comment on it. Let me give you some insight on where I go and where I've been.
There's a location in Florida in Ocala nearby a dragstrip. It's a road that goes to nowhere, with no buildings or...basically life itself ceases to exist on this road. It's KNOWN for people coming out and doing practice-runs up and down it. Cops even come to watch, and they don't care so long as two cars aren't side-by-side or anything representing or immitating a race. It's a straight run, you can see forever, no one's ever on it, and the only people that are are people that use it for this use. My dad did practice runs when he competed in the NDRA and NDBA (if I recall that second one right) at the track, and people still run it.
Location 2 is located just south of Macon in Warner Robins. It's a road out in front of my ex's house and it's yet again a straight, flat road with no cars ever on it where you can see for at least a mile in every direction. The chick lives in the middle of nowhere. It was used for a while up until someone was stupid and tried to race someone else on it, and now cops patrol it, so it's no longer used for that.
So no...sorry, but no one's life has been in danger by me except my own, and I've got a pretty good handle on my car. Thanks.
Also, as earlier posted by Zack, I never DID say I "beat the lotus" or "beat the Ferrari". I simply said I held with them througout the mountain run. As for "beating" I beat a Z06 in a turn because, being rear wheel drive, they can't exactly "power-out" of turns. I passed him on the inside of a right curve safely as there were two lanes on a road that's rarely traveled on, and we both knew each other, and what the other was doing. In other words...we weren't being stupid about it.
Again, as earlier posted, the fenders were not bought to "make my car faster" or anything like that. I simply said I bought them to save my gas mileage. If you're familiar at all with car design, then you know that's pretty much the only use of a fender, and that with it missing, you have a gap that can build up pressure (against the car) on the front of the door. I never quoted ANYTHING about the slits "helping me out" or anything in any way. I just said that I swung by a shop I used frequently and grabbed what I could so that I could make my appointment in Arizona as cheaply (gas-wise) as possible. Read again. There's nothing on the slits doing anything, nor is there any comments on it making me faster, or handle better, or anything beyond saving gas mileage by preventing a pocket of air at the door.
