I'm not even sure where this thread is going now
Anyway, Sleeper - your OFF bottle times seem much more realistic now than they were before. Good job. I'm not going to debate the N20 runs because a witness spoke up earlier in this thread.
HOWEVER, this is for Blackie: Big friggin' deal if these guys are trying to "prove" themselves. I have some things I want to have done by next Spring so that when myself and Po-Jay (SVT owner) get on the road courses out here in Phoenix I can maybe - just maybe - stick with him off the straights. Don't come in here and tell people not to try and compete just because
you may not see any rationale behind it.
Again I see the money issue coming up, as well. Why does that seem to come up when Zetec owners are mentioned? Does Zetec = dirt poor or something? You're right, no one that I know of has the t/c on their Zetec. But you can't rule it out as not happening soon.
We all have some aspirations when it comes to our cars. I want to eventually squeak past SVTs (not entirely impossible), Sleeper wants to have the fastest official Contour 1/4 time, ZetecRacing wants to have all posts contain no punctuation, etc. Competition is what keeps being an enthusiast fun. I could buy an SVT when this car is paid off in a few months (and I might) but that allure of doing something off-the-wall is what will keep the Zetec in my driveway.
