  1. The #1 problem with cheap endurance racing is time -- everyone wants to show up to the party, nobody wants to stay and clean up. My cousin lives in DC, he bought this car in 2016 and we only worked on it when I was out that way for work and actually had some free time. So, hardly ever. We ended up paying for a bunch of labor, so keep that in mind, but also I think that's a realistic option.

     

    Car - $3000 (130k miles)

    Safety Equipment by Piper Motorsports in Sterling, VA (Seats, Cage, Harnesses, Fire system, window nets, kill switch) - $7500

    Suspension refresh and reinforcement by RRT in NoVA - $4500

    Miscellaneous go fast upgrades - $2000

     

    So we're about $17k in right now and we're not competitive. Fortunately we're dividing everything 3 ways. Obviously you can do it for less but the days of true $500 cars racing are long gone.

     

    man holy fuck thats pricey. I'm curious, what you do think you would have to do to get competitive?

  2. complains about injust towards his race.... then rants about "you" killed him when not happy about a white persons comment. ..... irony. Has a career built on a tv platform that isn't black owned, gets wealthy from sales from all races, and now wants to vent. Dave is a very smart guy and done alot of shows, but hasn't been the same since he left commedy central when he was happy about a contract.
  3. Along with the no knock raids, the red flag laws are dangerous too.

     

    shhhh. were not able to talk about programs built to take guns away and instead focus on blaming police for others actions.

  4. we do agree on some things and disagree on others which is completely ok. I will say that you did not say that to be fair, but focusing on death by police is a distraction from what is really killing african americans in higher numbers. it's a very difficult conversation to have.

     

    another thing to keep in mind is that by feeding the protesting which has lead to property damage will only enoucrage more business' to leave struggling communities which means less jobs for minorities to help move forward.

  5. I agree with police reform in not having as much of a financially motivated system, but I will never agree with the narrative that police and other races are to blame for my family down south in the hood not being more successful.
  6. I oddly enough fully agree there should be type of reforms and a profit based traffic ticketing system is not the answer. Unfortunately when you look at the percentages of deaths by african americans vs various groups, death at the hands of police is not statistically the problem.
  7. greg think about it. one of your children or family has a crime commited against them. according to your logic, the perpetrator stopped for a traffic violation shouldnt be arrested or the police wouldnt be allowed to carry to help with arrest since its "traffic enforcement".

     

    Ironically I do agree with you on other points you made.
