Still bleh..the track is fuckin boring unless the group is going. I'm not interested in paying $25 bucks to sit in line all night long to maybe get a two or three passes in a slow car.

More boring than sitting in a heated suite while watching other people hit golf balls and drink?

My, how times have changed, lmfao.

My math is off I guess... Me with passenger I lose qtr car, you with passenger I win by 4 cars... Half of that would be 2 cars? You're a great driver, I dunno this dude...

Regardless I'm down to give it a go if he's stock(ish).

It wasn't a heated suite really... Just not as cold as the open side.

I think Steve wants to run on the motorspeedways, not that he prefers Top Golf to racing. I agree, going to the track sucks, but everyone knows I don't care about racing from a stop (much). Waiting forever to run half a track(eigth mile) and spin violently from street cars dragging water to the line is annoying. Now racing at an event is fun like a bracket or heads up class event for money (Extreme 7.0 for instance, I'm very interested in this), but test and tune is lame unless you are tuning or testing a new mod out. Racing a slow unchanged combo over and over is pretty unexciting.

Don't read too much into it, I'm just rattling his cage.

Stock C5 hardtop, ls6 intake and mufflers. Runs low 8s in eigth, no sandbagging. Zeek and I ran one night, very close races. He has video somewhere.

Agreed completely. Sitting in line for hours is laaaaaaaaaaaame. At least at Top Golf you can hang out with friends BS'n, good food/drinks and hit a few golf balls for fun.

I told you, Zeek can't drive. You should race Danny. He is the King of racing stock cars. He can rip off 7.9's over and over and over and over and over and over again..
