I prefer watching two cars going head to head in short spurts (I never care who wins, just so they make lots of noise), over hours upon hours of left turns.

As for rallying, yes, I enjoy watching it, but, seems the only way you can really get a grip on it is to watch it on TV. I'm sure it's exciting watching cars zip by, but, in order to truly keep up, you have to depend upon the cameras stationed at different locations on the track.

i agree that seeing some drag races live might be cool. as for rallying, F1, etc., even on TV its kinda boring. i can only watch in small doses. i was basically talking about the driving skill involved in drag racing vs. WRC/F1/etc.

Yes but again, you live in Pittsburg. I bet you see alot of everything every day. Most of them are not real WS6's. Mine wasn't, I just ordered all the parts to make it a WS6. Most guys do just get the hood and badge cause that's all you need to instill fear in people with these cars. Anywho, the point is, where you live, the only thing that is rare is rarity itself.

you should spend the $800 and slap the number on the side if that's all you need to win races. you could make a lot of money winning races with such a small investment. you apparently have professional driving skills, so why not?

Eh, I can drive. I'm no Schumacher though. But that was my point, the WS6 is far from a "straight line only" car. With Hotchkis' $799 suspension system (subframe connectors, Lower control arms, Strut tower brace, G-load brace, springs and struts) combined with the WS6's dual sway bars, I'd have a car that pulls about 1g on the skidpad and can pull like hell out of the turns. Seems to me like it'd be a great candidate.

My parents used to have a dog that's breath smelled like cat turds. Then the cat died. No more turd breath!
