Road racing is really cool. I would give anything to have that as a career!

THats some driving skills right there!

**John4cam** · 01-24-2009, 08:44 AM

Nice!

**Gastrader1** · 01-24-2009, 10:28 AM

Thats why I spend 12-15 weekends each year on track. Mid Ohio is an incredible track to race on. This years schedule will be busy for me; Sebring, VIR, Bluegrass, New Jersey Motorsports, Summit Point, VIR, Mosport, Watkins Glen, Mid Ohio, Barber, and maybe Road Atlanta. Should I get bored I might go to Beaverun. If anyone is interested in performance driving schools let me know, contact me via email.
See you at the track.

**2001GTTT** · 01-24-2009, 02:42 PM

**AdamantiumSilvr** · 01-24-2009, 04:03 PM

Thanx for gettin those pics up. That car is awesome! Man, he got lots of loot in that and to keep up the maintanence from race to race. WOW!

**Troll** · 01-24-2009, 05:27 PM

another great use for V8 engines. two gears the whole track.

**Killercanary** · 01-25-2009, 11:37 AM

WOW... simply WOW. I'm jealous as can be over your car Gastrader1! I thought you had an '03 Cobra, I had no idea you had this car.

What wheels are those? I'm looking for a lightweight wheel for my '94 Cobra for autocrossing and these got me thinking...

**Gastrader1** · 01-25-2009, 12:01 PM

Paul,
They are MB wheels in that picture. I also use R-58 95 Cobra R wheels and I have a set of CCW Classics. I sold my Sonic Blue 03 Cobra going on two years ago and bought this car about 14 months ago. For what I love to do, this was the best move I have ever made since I started playing with these kind of toys. I no longer fear how am I going to be getting home after a weekend on track 500 miles from home. The cost factor of buying a built out race car versus building one is also a huge bonus. I have a box of receipts from the previous owner totalling about $65K and I bought the car for under $20K. I had already bought a 93 Hatchback that I was planning on doing the same thing that this car has on it when I stumbled across this car. If you know anybody looking for a clean Hatchback ready to build I have one to sell. The car is at the race shop in Richmond.
