Bingo was her namo.

Finding the balance between street, autocross, and road racing is the real trick. Throw in the speed stop squared and it's gets real interesting. From springs, shocks, brake pads, alignment, power plant, you just can't have it all in every event. Pick one that you are great at or walk the tight rope. To me that's what this pro touring is about.

If your car knocks your teeth loose on the street or it wants to hook a rut on the road and put you into the median, that's not my idea of a compliant pro touring car.

When Cris, Brian, and I sat down to talk shop over some drinks, I told Cris what I felt the best compliment I had heard about the car. Brian said, "Blue Balz feels better than a new car and I can't stop thinking about it".

It's my opinion that many around here are forgetting that variable of the sport we enjoy around here. Do you want a race car or a pro touring car?
