I think Ariel Atom would be easier to work with, then GT3 is my only concern.

I, myself be scared to track gt3. But, it is you we are talking about. you are nuts and i'm sure you will track da hell out of it.

There's got to be more to it than mixing open wheel and closed wheel because they welcome the Ultralite.

I've contacted Driver's Edge and PCA and they have banned the Atom. Those were the only reasons I was given.

I would've preferred the Spoon-powered Atom, but guess I might have to settle.

If I get the GT3, it'll be silver, it's more for the wifey than me.

That's highly disappointing.

Yes, but that's after 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of medical school, and 3-5 years of residency, depending on your specialty. And of course nowadays, you have to subspecialize to make the big bucks, so tack on a couple of years for a fellowship.

There are better ways to make a good living.

Back on topic, the GT3 is simply gorgeous.

he's a medical student - it's his job to live in the hospital. I lived there when I was a student too - we all paid our dues.
I'm not really complaining - I was driving to work today when I passed a group of Hispanic men standing by the side of the road waiting for someone to come hire them for the day. I'm ALOT better off than them. For someone to complain that he can't afford a Porsche is just stupid. I was just joking.
Now, now. Don't get all jealous.

He's not a medical student anymore.

The username started back in the day.

If I'm not mistaken, he's finishing up residency soon.
