You'll probably want to race me to see who paints faster.yes Phil. All my race stories are entirely fabricated just so I can look cool to a bunch of complete strangers on a dying communication medium. All the trophies I have were purchased directly from a trophy shop and I somehow convinced my wife to post in a bikini with the fake championship trophy that she pretend pit crewed for.
In all seriousness here is a little bit of background (long read sorry)
So it stands to reason that people race all the freakin time where I live, don't ya think? I once drove my Rx7 to the liquor store which is exactly 1.1 miles/3 minute drive from my house - and in that short drive I ended up racing a random S550 Mustang GT 3 times from stop to stop ?
- I live in Texas, USA.
- Texas is the state with the fastest cars, leading the nation in sales of cars over 300 hp.
- High-quality 93 octane and E85 fuels are widely available; 93 only costs ~$3.59/gallon (~$1.47 AUD/litre for 98 RON).
- Texas has a larger motorsports enthusiast community than all of Australia.
- I live 15 minutes from Circuit of the Americas, the USA’s top F1 track.
- Texas has lenient vehicle laws; my 500hp Rx7 is inspection-exempt, and my engine-swapped BRZ passes inspection even without catalytic converters.
- Our roads have the highest speed limits in the entire nation. SH-130 has a speed limit of 85MPH (137KMH) and people basically treat it like the autobahn. Guess which road I live right off of and take every single day on my commute?
Anyways, if you are ever in Austin I'd love to take you around in my Supra - you can also help me paint my garage walls.
