That's midwest ebonics. Hell, I'll pry drive my bike wence nice out. 8) Where in Wiscawnsin are you? There do autocrossing at Miller Park in Milwaukee and then up here in the vailley. Check out FVSCC.com as it's the local autocross forum and they list all the events up and some stuff they do at some track days they have.

The only event I'm *planning* on going to is the series at great lakes dragway.

alright ill look into it. im in madison. and on some weekends kenosha area. so miller park is pretty local. and yea stealthmode great lakes has some pretty good events. import wars is decent there. dont run your car in those events tho. ive ran mine and you pay a shitload extra to race only 1 or 2 times becaise its so busy. a lot of quick cars though. and yes by throwing a single cam at it i mean using a hoist. hah last time i put a single cam in someones car i just put a table in front of the car and lifted the engine from that with another person. ill pry be staying with a single cam though so i dont have to be in the modified or super modified class.

yea. decided against the tattoo though. the piston on my arm is enough.

Piston tattoos are overrated, unless you have a unique one. Show it O0

There is a track in St. Cloud, MN at an old airport. It is pretty big.

I know Jung4G on here goes all the time in the summer. He is never on here though, you can try to PM him for info though.
