Alright, I'll check it out sometime, maybe this weekend. No, not this weekend. Grr...sometime.

i dont know if im weird, but i had my helmet on today for no reason! i think im itching to go racing! but racing is a good thing!:p :D :p

I do that every now and then. I'll pull the car in the garage, put on the helmet and gloves, close my eyes, and race in my mind. It's good mental excerise. Gets the muscle memory developed for things like trail braking, hitting early and late apexes. Even things like using weight transfer to intentionally lose rear traction. That's really only good with a predictable rear suspension, not the stock 4-link, but getting in the habit of thinking about it during the off time helps during the track time

Heck, when I was racing circle track, I'd pull the race seat out of the car and sit in it to watch NASCAR. Sitting there, doing the motions along with the cars on the track helps. At least I think it does.

i can only imagine what its like to do a real big time race! and besides, if i went and sat in the car with my helmet on and was doing driving motions, some in my complex might think i was going mad!

I did the nationals a few times and that was just awesome. We're talking some really high level, corporate type racing. I'm looking at autocross as just a small stone to get me back into profesional racing.

At least they probably wouldn't mess with your car afterwards
