Ummm, yes please!!! It would be a first time for me, so you'll have to show me the ropes... Just let me know ahead of time, and I'll definitely be there. As for driving the M, I'd love to, but I'd want some seat time before hand to familiarize myself with it...

Strange from a stop to 120 the two that I have run (multiple times) in the BMW have dropped further and further back. At the time, after reading posts on this board, I was expecting the S2000 to make some magical leap forward after 100, but it never happened. 2 cars, 3, 4, 5, too far to tell

if this if your first offense, I would be very suprised if you didn't receive some sort of plea bargan. I got a racing ticket and got it knocked down to wreckless op with a traffic school option (so no points). Not a bad deal.

How do all you guys get into these encounters with other cars? Do you usually initiate a race? Or is it the other way around? The only people I've raced are my friends: 99' Civic EX w/ minor mods (yeah, I know - waste of time) and '95 Integra GSR (stock). Both were easy kills. I tried to bait an RSX-S the other day, but he wouldn't bite. I find it difficult to get people to race. Maybe I just need to run into more ricers.
