car is such a monster - awesome and that driver is solid. I like just over 6 mins in when he gets a little hot and the rear steps out, he recovers and throws his hand up a little like "oops, oh well".

Watching that car chew up mph is crazy too.

Milka should have thrown some punches. She got more momemtum with her TaTas as Danica has none.

little bit of an issue with shipping costs on the race car I suspect hahahaha.

that said, on the NARP forum there is talk about the RRC and I posted this

I make no promises as my car is a make-sure-it's-running-2days-notice sorta thing, but there is an open track day at Miller on the 22nd and I really want to check that track out so it might work out to do the RRC and then hit the track before coming home.


and have seen no response to that so I suspect people ain't into the "real" racing thing.

nope, not PCA. It is an "open track day" which means you shows ups, signs some forms and hits the track with whatever car you have. You could run your tow vehicle I believe (haven't confirmed all their terms but I have ran a pickup on a track more than once).

On their website, the rules sound like most open track days I have been to which are very loose in the fact there are little to no rules or supervision, but it also means that guys with even bone stock cars and no race suits can run.
