Don, I’ve got to say that this seems an interesting way to renew some of the enthusiast energy… at least in this little community. Alot of the guys that have been around & made their cars fast/reliable/fun, are now moving on & “growing up”… leaving a new crop of enthusiast with half-finished & half-assed projects without the will or know how to make it otherwise. What you’re proposing, tied in with you “popularity” here could go along ways to rectifying this. $0.02 ---

But nobody has the patience to deal with me when it comes to performance shit. very noob class ftw and im in. i think it would be hard to entertain those who know quite a bit but still stay basic for someone who knows like nothing at all (me) but i would love to know more about modding and general tech. Can i get tutored. i know where you live:lolham: ---

Don, Sounds like a good idea, but be warned: -Don’t be suprised if NYS shows up at your door, looking for certs, insurance (proof of, covering anyone in the building ect), ect,ect,ect,ect need i say more, ect,ect,ect, legal bullshit, ect,ect,ect,ect,ect, vtec, ect,ect. Gotta be real careful with this sort of thing. A few years ago, an ad appeared in the local news, with someone offering “welding classes”. The person was qualified to teach (although did not have the certs from NYS). The “school” was not legit either (not a licensed NYS Private School). Well, needless to say, it did’nt work out. At all. The state shut that guy down faster than you can say shallow grave. And, no, that preson was not me. I’m not saying that this idea sucks or anything, just be careful. NYS sucks when it comes to shit like this. ---
