Default California = Fail

We can't modify or use real paint on our cars. They are closing down the tracks because of noise, While they complain about street racing. Taxes, cost of living and gas is higher than the rest of the country, while there are less jobs. And now they want to give illegal's drivers license.

Daytona sounds nice! Yes Elk Grove... the "want to be like sacramento" suburb. I hate it here, the EGPD cops are complete DICKS. They get you for anything and every little thing. It's just not the place to be if racing is your hobby. I want to relocate a.s.a.p. Does your cousin own an F Body?

GA just announced that unemployment is starting to fall here.

Sell your 1 bedroom 1 bath home in LA for $900,000 out there.. come here and bou 20 houses with them oney.. rent out 19, race at one of the many dragstrips within a few hours of ATL. Done and done.

why on earth would anyone actually live in CA?

May want to think about looking into San Antonio (in the process of relocating there myself). Seventh (7th) largest city in the US and growing by the minute, there is San Antonio Raceway and I only know of a couple of decent shops there. Just my .02

I was looking around Austin, TX last night and for the price I paid for my house I could get one with a larger lot of land, newer, and a large 2 1/2 to 3 car garage. Heck if you are in the $250k range you can get something a lot bigger and better. hell I found a house for $180k that had a workshop/garage in the backyard.

I think me and the lady might look into this in a couple years, I would love to stay and change CA to be a better state to live in, but it has been this way for far too long because of the hippies.
