Sam and Jack ----- great to have some more TrackRats ( or would that be TrackRattes ) on here, so do post up videos/pics of your adventures Autocrossing, Road Racing, Time Trials , or just HPDEs. Welcome and it sounds like both of you have a disease similar to mine, but my wife has told me she has no limit on the number of 4 wheel Mistresses I have, but I need to stay away from the two legged ones, ha. Heck, I only have two Missmachines now, so I am doing just fine.

Thank you. With 10 inches of snow at least I can fantasize about the track.

Hi William - It's great to hear about your DE and Enduro endeavors! I can relate a bit as I raced in ChampCar and WRL for several years but am back to just DEs these days, enjoying being away less and staying closer to home.

Regarding your prowling for seats, are you finding much out there? Curious about how team/race car qualities vs cost stack up these days. It was kind of iffy for us - we tried renting seats with mixed results. For us it was easier in concept than reality but I was thinking the reverse might be true for the other side of the coin.

Anyway, welcome to Carpokes!

LOL. I will post up some vids this spring with the Cayman. It’s sketchy driving to tracks in Northern California from Reno during winter.

I love the diversity of experience and ownership that people are sharing. I’m glad I signed up. Look forward to contributing to this community in future months. Need to wrap up some other car projects and get going on the Cayman.
