I'm only considering at this point. Business before pleasure.

I've been running AKA Rally for a few years now. I have a blast every year, meet tons of new people, lifelong friends/memories etc. It's also a reasonable 3k entry fee, with great events between each city. Unlike the 10k entry fee for the event you guys are talking about. Sorry but I have better things I can spend 10k on.

Oh yeah... and if anyone signs up please use my name for the referal code

Cannonball or the Gumball.....heck or even Players Run will be in my future. By then I should have my TVR Sagaris, custom turboed to about 750 rwhp....JEEZUS, it'll be like the Speed 12 all over again, except based on a 350 instead of the Cerbera..

Ah, dreams

I think I'll pass on this one. It is all about you and Joe, and Solo. This is Joe's type of thing, not mine. It's an expensive, long distance street racing thang

Z-Man won't like this too --->

Hey turbo guys- if you do it make sure to invest in a V-1, police scanner and a high quality radar jammer. they will pay for themself in the first hour of the run. LOL! i've never been fortunate enough to go on any of these, but i love watching all of the videos.
