    Used to, had a pretty wild RX-7. Also did the Lone Star road race here in west TX. I miss those days. Your wifes car should rule out there, I love the way those 8s drive

    I used to run my 87 Turbo GrandAm 2L. It was a hoot. SCCA is great if you want to go slow around corners.

    I used to do autocross. We have a local SCCA club and a local Porsche club that put on events almost every weekend. I ran an '83 Mustang GT, then a '99 Z28, both with engine & suspension mods. It was fun beating up on those Porsches & Vipers.

    Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.

    Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.
