I really hope I get to read track stories from you guys in the near future. You don't need an awesome car to enjoy the hell out of it. I'm sure you all would make great drivers. Please make the effort to try it sometime.

Ohio is probably around the same distance as Montreal, there's just an international border in it....in a piece of junk civic with no side blinkers, one headlight, and a fucked up strut tower.
We'd haul the civic on a trailer with one guys truck. Big fucker. the cage is a welding 30 project. simple shit. besides, the chances of a civic getting into a rollover ain't high, so I'd guess it wouldn't need to be too awesome.
Maybe I'll talk to em about it. see if our school would get in on it. I sure would do it.

LOL uber skills?
I don't even have my license. I wicked a friends V6 Stang (which is an auto) around the parking signs at work at 3 am faster than anyone else though. I think it was a 5 or 6 second gap. he was in the car and all he said at the end was "holy fuck I thought we were gonna die when you almost hit that concrete thing!" "Huh? shiiiit, I had a good 6 inches there." "you are not driving my car again"
It was just a random thing. started from our lot, headed straight in the lane (it's a marked lot) 90 degree right, a left-right chicane, right hand 180, left hand 90, right hand 90, and your back to start, IIRC.

Cool story, and you are 17 i think it says and you don't have a license? Maybe the rules are different in Canada. But you must have a learner's permit, right? PS: I was talking about cisco's skills, but it apprears you got some too ;D

So one thing I forgot to mention, not super awesome cause we didn't go on track, one of the instructors had an R8 and gave me a ride across the paddock in it. It was the same color as the ones I drove too.
IDK about uber skills. Better knowledge of seeing the proper line than some, but I'm sure most of you guys could do the same.
One guy had a Marcos like the one in GT4 too. Couple Porsches, Corvettes and a supercharged 4 door Chevelle.

making a car that you know will sell=/= making a car that you know is idiocy.
