That's not going to work very well especially with your dad driving.

No way - they would definitely buy the car for $500 though

You're gonna love it, as long as you're cool with the way Jay runs things. The spirit of the event means a lot, but the racing is pretty fun also. It's not looking like I'll make this event. None of the rest of my NC-based crew wants to make the trek to Summit, so I don't have a seat for this event. Bummer.
