So last year was my first year racing ANYTHING EVER, I raced a 2001 Focus ZX3 at Princeton and Ogilvie on dirt circle tracks, and in ElkRiver at ERX park on a motocross track, I've been buying and collecting cars and parts and i'm hoping to have 4 focus' on the track next spring. At the begining of the season, there is open practice, and anyone is allowd to race, I let several people drive my car last year, and i want to extend the offer to any forum members or there friends.

I thought about ice racing, i dont know the rules, but i was told the cars needed windshields and glass. i'm also busy very busy during the winter.

Hopefully i will have 4 cars done, it takes a lot of time to build them, especially the roll cages, i still neeed to find some alluminum racing seats, and harnesses.

He needs to have 4 cars because he breaks down often, about twice per race actually. :lol:
