Thread: Don't Know Much About Racing, but...

I still think its fun. I'm not such a big fan of the NASCAR stuff. The only reason I would go to one of those races is for the huge party that goes on all day pretty much.

The kind of racing that I like is drag racing. It's quick, powerful, and yes, I'll admit that I got interested in the sport after I saw Vin Diesel get behind the wheel. Now yes, while that was a movie and most things may not be right (I dunno, I'm a watcher, not a driver), I still liked it. Let's face it; I might be one of those girls that think that drifting is hot!

Hahahaha!! I hope not!

'Drifting' isn't racing per se. They do it a bit around here, and it's more of a 'pastime' than racing Mostly for a lack of proper 'racing' facilities and events.

There's a big difference between Drag Racing and this Drifting.

I'm assuming you're fairly young if you're that enamored with a movie with Vin 'couldn't-act-his-way-out-of-a-wet-paper-bag' Diesel

But welcome either way!
Maybe you'll find an interest in REAL motor sports

Yeah, fair enough

It's these damn movies that piss me off. Oh, and the teenaged boneheads who think they're hot shit (after watching said movies) and take this crap to the streets in the $$$ cars that Mommy and Daddy bought them.

Learning 'skills' is one thing.. Being a spoiled, arrogant, douche-bag with nothing else to do, is another. (not saying the new member, guppy is one of them).

Man, I need a smoke
