Its seems like a dream to just go out there one early morning when the sun is rising and listen to the sound of your engine roar and the smell of tires burning up.

lets open a bank account and all of us deposit $500 each. Take 500 multiple the number of Active members we have on this forum. There we should have enough to buy off an area and build a little playground for ourselves. Here the catch, the course is exclusively for us. So therefore we can charge outsiders a fee to used our course. Deng wouldn't that be nice? A little good business I reckoned, Especially with gas prices I'm sure there people would be dying to to try a course like that.

Love this idea to the highest. Question is....where would it be located? We are all scattered over the states.

Why we are all dreaming, lets turn one of the hangers into a state of the Art tuning facility, so vendors could come and tune cars at big meets. Also put in a lift and shop for installs and custom fabrication. Locate it somewhere in the middle of the US, so we could get people from East, West, North, and South. Oklahoma sounds good to me LOL.

Yeah, unfortunately some areas of the country aren't running RallyCross programs. Myself, I have to drive 5-6 hours to the nearest events, but at least I have five different regions to choose from surrounding me. Personally I think that they're worth the drive.

that is very true, after having the whole afternoon to think about it. I would say that we first gather the money from the active members who are willing to participate also the location where they reside. We would add up all those locations and narrow it to the grid coordinates that everybody would be in the near radius. Because putting this playground in the middle of the country isn't very effective so therefore we would should based it on where the majority is. Planning for when this event should take place. I suggested a month in advance, so everybody can clear their schedule and definitely attend. At least every other month. So be can get out money worth.

hehe

Without company backing and insurance, it couldn't really happen. As it was said above, find your local rallycross event and rip it up.

Holy S.

That was absolutely mind-boggling car control, especially in an AWD car.

Weird thing is: that exhaust, around the midrange RPMs, sounded like a mid-70s Ferrari F1 car. That's one of my favorite car sounds.

Just unbelievable.

hahaha thats hilarious about the STi cop. i guess whichever car you're driving, the other side seems like the d-bags. when i had my sti it was like all the evo guys acted like they were better and always drove like bitch asses beside me and stuff. even now a few still seem that way. but as you can tell by my screen name im a recovering suby guy so im still a little protective of the STi... at least we can all agree that srt4 drivers are the gayest.

..go Ken Block!

Its a big rivalry were im at if a sti pulls up next to me were going and most of the sti owners are total D***s were im from they are always talking shit about evos so its not the car per say its the owners. Plus the new sti looks like a mini van!!
