excellent post A-KO.....the problem is ego. Some want to go really fast. They are always crashing, but "hey, look how fast my car can go......yours is too slow....."
Since you race Minis, how slow do they seem when there are 5 or 6 of you door-to-door-nose-to-tail lap after lap? They don't seem slow, they seem fast....it is all about the racing experience.
Most on here will scoff at you and ignore my comments as BS, but you and I know different.
