You have to be a real man to crush the competition when they're on steam rollers and you're on skinnies. Skinnies for the win!!

I have a new nickname for this car -- "expensive POS". Good thing I love it!

I like running Green group because the driver experience - thus quality - seems to be far higher than the Red group drivers. The Red group seems to be full of people that barely graduated Yellow - and now think they're fast... but forget to point by - or pinch you off because they don't look around... and some take terrible lines etc. Last year at Mini Nats - in the Red group - Two different sessions I came rolling out of the Carrousel only to find cars wadded up at the bottom... a Porsche and a brand spanking new GT500 that didn't even have plates yet! That is not a difficult turn IMHO..... and these cars were wadded up front and back - both totals. Whereas you rarely have an incident in Green and rarely have a spin... and you can drive with more confidence in the guys around you or in front of you.
I went so fast I broke my speedo

Seriously speaking though Rusto......speeds into one I believe reach 130
