I think shes crazy, but oh well.
eh, depends on where you are. TX is too big to generalize 'there are too many bugs in tx'. i'm on the edge of the city, and there are actually more bugs at my house back home in Danvers, MA than there are in my part of Fort Worth. if you were out in the country side, it would be a different story i'm sure.

When it's -10 and there's three feet of snow on the ground in Feb. My car is parked under a cover in my garage... And the guys in Florida and Texas are driving theirs.... I'd rather take my chances with a 30lb flying bug then deal with the winter....

you are definitely in the wrong place then, you can always move !
I personally rather live somewhere enough south where you can race till december but has a short enough winter to kill off any bugs that live there (ie virgina, maryland)

Trust me.... I'm slowly working on it

I used to live in south carolina just south of myrtle beach. Nice hot summers, pretty tame winters with no snow, I miss it. And it's a huge vacation area, so they spray all standing water & all of the golf courses... almost no bugs
