Old fart on board?
So I am thinking that I'll be the oldest guy on here... hooray....
Dave

West suburbs of Chicago
2 cars of note:
1993 Mazda Miata-T - mostly finished. Splitter/brake ducting/more boost in the works.
1989 and 1992 240sx. Combining 2 240s into one. Rb20det powered in the end. Hopefully building within Grassroots Motorsports Challenge rules... ie: ~2k to build entire car. No rust shell hooray!
Donor car that has rust and wiring issues:
No more 89 though... managed to find a crusher/scrapper to take the shell. So now I can slowly begin to prep parts for the 92 build.
Yay cars!

RA is one of two local tracks I haven't hit yet (RA and Blackhawk farms). I wouldn't be surprised if I run out of gearing there from what I hear.
I've had it out on Autobahn North and Gingerman though. So far its fun... will be alot more fun this season with the changes I'll be finishing.

Re: Old fart on board?
