Why drag racers shouldnt go road racing
Well at least me, so with the new job I decided to go out to the Hotchkis Open track day. Things I learned. DO NOT go as fast as you can on your first lap.
1: Do not show off to the camera, like this

If you do show off to the camera man, make sure you get your hands back on the wheel quick or this will happen

don't be discouraged, i'm used to straight lines and went off the track only once. of course not at the same speeds as trooper! plus he has an excuse, he was posing for the camera, i was just going to fast on a straight-away.

I think there should be a track day for DRAG Racer who are NEWBS to the Road racing scene.
Im afraid I'll make a fool of myself. at least I'll be with newbies as well. hehe.

aw yes, the CX BEAST! even my little hatchback had enough power to spin out on the track. it was so incredibly fun!!!! still cleaning the interior. itr seats are no longer black but with a tint of brown
i agree with exospeed, drag racers trying out road racing. that would be fun!!!!
