I was trying not to hurt any ones feelings.... But we can still feel faster...at least in our heads.
A guy I used to race with says "The older I get, the faster I was".

sal is one of the fastest ive seen race in my opinion. im not surprised when he brings in a win after being hit in the rear with all 4 wheels facing in different directions because the toe and camber are out of wack

Oh shiznit, gimme a chance to get comfortable before you dump me in with those heavy hitters....I've only ever driven exactly 3 road races and only one in my car.
I did sit on the podium all 3 times....I hope to continue that trend this weekend. Stay tuned.

Be Safe!! Everything else is just gravy!
I just want to have fun and make new friends....a trophy would be nice but I have never had a problem being beaten by a better team....its doesn't happen often, but when it does I respect them.

Nope - That's Mark Kibort in his Porsche behind Sal in the picture.
He's talking about Igor Lyustin in the Acura NSX (not pictured but mentioned in the article)

I thought those looked like 928 headlights. Was frustrated trying to figure out what model Nissan it was. :)
