it's all good dan. we're all n00b drivers (i know i am). there's no need to prove how good we are or not to anyone. it doesn't matter cause there's always someone out there who's better.
we're all suby enthusiasts. let's leave it at that.

And by saying if im following you i will be so far back that ill push myself and crash is stupid when again you've never driven with me. I guess ill just continue to drive recklessly by myself until i can afford to goto track days and miss school..... maybe then i can prove myself.

okay whatever, like i said ill just keep driving with my friends and not even bother trying to prove myself. The only reason im mad is that you still keep assuming stuff and saying because i say i drive fast means that it's wreckless.

wreckless may be harsh, but from what i'm hearing, technique and the understanding of the fundmentals of car control are things you should work on. Just be careful, you're one of the few guys i've come to respect, as you are so young, yet, still work hard for your mods, and mod the car yourself.
just keep it safe buddy,

I'm slow. I mean, i drive the backroads too, but i try to practive things that people have been coaching me on. Slowly, i'll get faster.
I don't mean to sound like i know everything, or something. But last thing anyone around here wants to hear is another person getting hurt.

haha yea i know you guys are just looking out for me and everyone else on this board. Also i know i haven't had my car for long (a year next month) but i go out nearly every weekend driving and have found what my limits are. Also with the suspension mods ive done, i have seen what every part has done to the car and how it effects it's handling. I'll be sure to take you up on your offer at button willow I can't wait to get out on the track because ive heard its so much fun and how addicting it can be.

I hate to see it happen, and frankly I don't wanna be part of it.

my .02 because i have ridden in the car with aaron since he got his drivers license, is that you gain driving experience through "years" of driving, learning from your mistakes (which often happens), pushing yourself and the car to the limits and sometimes pushing that hard, results in harsh lessons...
..unless you have that experience, whether it be driving by yourself or on a closed course, you dont ever want to be pushed into a situation as showing how macho you are by flying up roads like mt. hammy following or be followed by someone else....do it on a closed course because on roads like mt.hammy a mistake can turn into a BIG mistake....aaron and christian are skilled drivers because of the years of driving experience they have acquired, not to say that someone who just got their license and car wont, but there is a small chance....
..just be safe, no need to hear of another suby guy flying off a mountain....
sorry if this was lame but yeah hahaha
