    Default Thought I'd post up my "pro" racing accomplishments...

    I was putting a couple of things in the attic when I came across the Annual Awards Banquet & Christmas Party "book" from the 1999-2000 season for the Atlanta Region SCCA. I know Big Baller isn't a fan of cone-dodging, lolol, but for me going from strictly low-riding for 13 years straight into competition driving, it was pretty cool. This was my first year doing it and it was my only year doing it. I was actually getting ready to get into the actual road course racing when my car fouled up and I never pursued it. Later, QD.

    Scott Giles, he was running an ITC Civic when I was building mine in 2004. (Road racing)

    Rich Shafer...he recently passed away in a hill climb. If that is the same Rich.

    Lolol. I understand that. I just thought it was cool to find at 10 later. My bro-in-law has videos of me running the tracks throughout that year. I need to get them from him. Later, QD.

    Autocross is more fun in the damp on snow radials, otherwise I can't justify the cost and the work to do some passes. I'd suggest doing test and tunes, you can at least get a descent amount of runs in.

    Nice find qd

    $40 for 6 runs or roughly 2-4 minutes of seat time. That's far more expensive than road racing and paying a $350 fee for one weekend.
