newbie racer
Hmmmm, so you're 16 I'm guessing? The fact that you call yourself a newbie racer implies that you aren't ready for a car with lots of power. I'm not trying to bash you but a new driver by no means needs a twin turboed DSM or 3S (which I would say is the best Mitsu :iceslolan ). Seriously, I know how you feel and NOW I wish I had a faster car but I know that if I'd had it when I first started I probably would have hurt myself or someone else. Racing before you're comfortable with driving and with your car is stupid. I'm not against racing because I do it occasiaonally but even at the track, a young kid in a really fast car is unsafe. You're probably thinking "whatever, this guy is just being a jerk cause he thinks he knows more than me." but I'm just trying to keep you safe and make sure you think. If you won't drive anything except a fast car then make sure you use common sense with it. And if by chance you've been drving for a while and are just getting into racing and that's what you meant then disregard almost everything I said. OK I'm done preaching. Continue with what you were doing.

Hey thanks for your input and concern.You have over guested my age though.I am 14 years old.I'm looking for a good project car to start off with.I have been working with cars since I was 10 and have known how to drive since I was 12.Thay call me a lead foot though.Need for speed is my thinking.I know what you mean by kids and fast cars.I've lost a good friend do to some immature kid.God rest his soul.Sorry if I sound like an old man, but growing up the way I did I had to learn maturity and control fast.I'm thinking of going with a mitsubishi or honda/acura for my first car and working my way up or staying there.Tell me your thought please.Keep smiling and later days.
