    Anthony,

    Nice job this weekend!! It's nice to see some CRX's up front!!

    I've said this a million times, but this ITA group is a great group. I really enjoy running with everyone. Lots of respect, people with good heads on their shoulder, all out to have fun without hitting anyone (well, almost )

    The "It's just sitting in the driveway doing nothing" line has cost lots of people lots of time and money. Sell it as a street car and buy a built racecar..you know the drill! You'll be racing a YEAR sooner, and have THOUSANDs more compared to building.

    Yeah man! Thanks for the bump up the hill coming out of T6. That helped quite a bit. I gotta say, Very little to no carnage amongst all the race groups throughout the weekend. Very commendable . My only damage was a fender wrinkle caused by a trailer that was leaving. Just clipped the front left fender. Was an easy fix with a jack handle then it was off to race 3. Great videos from all.

    Thanks for the input; either way it'll be quite a way off...

    Nope - love for Miata's! HAHAHAHA!

    A great format, great weather and all (most) of the usual suspects led to some great racing. So many things to say about T3 though............

    You would crap yourself if you knew how little I paid for the Saturn........... I could have sold half the tires and wheels that came with it and paid for the thing..........:eek:

    But then again, maybe it's becasue most people aren't dumb enough to try and race a Saturn!!!

    And its less Ghey than a Miata (excluding full prepped ITA versions from the Ghey category) and the motor doesn't blow up every single time you drive it. Seems like the Saturn has 1 up on my adventures!

    Wasn't whining, just stating fact. If you were sitting down and trying to decide what would be the best car to buy/build for ITA, I don't think Saturn would be in the top ten!! Right?? Anyways, it's all about the driver, right??


    AND, I actually did use it to traansport our groceries to the track!!!

    What Jake and crew have said. It got so bad for me I ended up buying another racecar with a friend so I could actually do a few events while finishing building my car. It always takes a lot longer than expected and I ran into several obstacles that without the help of Grant (the blue RX7) and a few others, it would still be sitting in my yard.

    Hmmm, want an ex-SSC Neon (SOCH) now in ITA for really cheap, meaning something like $2,500? It needs a passenger side door bar and some new paint. I really need to just put that darn thing up for sale.

    For much of that Saturday race I had thought my car just had an RX7 hood in the trunk. Great close racing all around.
