I'll race you chugging a beer.....

 

Hey Mike.....More Power To You!!!

I hope you still will have time to post as I don't want to be the ONLY one posting stupid ****!!!!

Wishing you luck in WHATEVER you WANT TO DO!!!

 

Sound to me like you are in a big old mid-life crises. Becareful about wants, the grass is not as green as you may see it and don't burn your bridges with what you have already...you may need a fallback...just in case...

Good luck and hope everything works to you expectations.

 

A mid life crisis in my opinion would be when he gets rid of the H3, house, and wife ... get's a bachelors party pad down town, a ferrari, and starts dating college chicks LOL!

Good luck with everything Mike and the offer still stands if you need any help ...

LM is right though, make sure you have something to fall back on as well ... if not I guess I'll have to teach you how to play poker .. as long as you don't fish my ponds LOL!!!!!

 

don't think I'm going to go quittinh my job over this now. I'm just testing the waters. I wnt to the scca solo races yesterday to let my wife get a feel for what I'd be doing once she saw she could be a passenger with me while we race she was alll for it, although it looks like you need a good bank of money for it. some guys had extra sets of tires and wheels, all kinds of things. I got a good idea of what kinds of cars I'm looking for though. thanks for the best wishes. believe me, unlless someone offers me the golden key to racing its going to be a weekend warrior thing for now.

 

Hey Mike, me and my wife will be at Route 66 for the NHRA nationals on 6/10. I hope you plan on taking your wife to see Ashley and her almost as popular dad race that weekend.

 

Already have my tickets! I bought them on Friday. We have section GG 17th row right on the start line. I can't wait. It's going to be both of our first NHRA race. She keeps talking about meething Ashley so hopefully if we get there early enough we might see her, but I'm not sure if they let you in the pits over there. I saw nothing about pit passes at this venue. I only live about 15 minutes away.

 

I think I'm going to forget about all of this SCCA stuff for now. The amount of time and money involved isn't really worth it, and I have too many goals in the next few years to have another thing to suck my money, like having kids and taking more road trips. Reality is starting to set in a bit over here.

 

Hope everything works out for you Mike. If it is something you really want, I might recommend that you go for it, and try it while you are young. Once you get older and have more responsibilty, especially kids, it will be much more difficult to do these kinds of things. If things don't work out now, you still have your whole life ahead of you to get on track!
