And just for everyone base knowledge, I don't do this full time. Not even close. I have 20 years in the Army with 16 years if that as a Green Beret. I have 13 deployments in support of the GWOT at the tip of the spear doing bad things to bad people. So that has taken up almost all of my adult life. I got into these cars two years ago when I bought this one. Now that I am looking at retirement I can spend a little more time doing them. But tuning is a small facet of what I do. Porting and custom cam stuff with full builds and what not is my focus. So I have some catching up to do. Cars have always been my passion but Duty to my County and it's Citizens has come first. So now I am shifting focus. Can't wait to make this a full time thing and to be able to dedicate some real time to perfecting my craft as I have my other.

On a track day yes. In competitions no. You need a certain amount of experience road racing.

Thanks. In all honesty, I already miss combat something fierce. I was hoping this car stuff would fill the void. But in the end it just ends up pissing me off. LOL.

Road racing is what I was into when I was a kid. But that was a long time ago. I have gotten to do some cool driving courses in my current job though. It does seem like something that takes your full focus and attention for longer than 9 seconds though. I may give it a try.

I grew up around San Francisco and we had a ton of crazy roads in the coastal hills and we had HWY 1 on the beach. From Half Moon Bay to Santa Cruz was 60 miles. The goal was 30 minutes down and then 30 minutes back. I had me a slammed 91' Camaro with a 500hp 383. I thought I was bad *** back in 94'. LOL. But averaging 120mph down HWY 1 wasn't easy.

Wasn't my first choice but it fit like a glove, paid the Bill's and was "easy" for me. Glad I did it and glad it's coming to an end.
