I hate to bring this back up again, but I wanted to let folks know that I am finished with the first and second parts now.
What took so long was that I got some crits about the narrative elements in a writer's forum, so I fixed it in both parts. I changed one minor character, progressively giving him a greater role in the whole trilogy. I also changed the intro of the second story, making it an actual race.
If anyone wants to read it, post your email or send me a PM.
Now I have to get started on the third part. It'll be hard, because I haven't spent a lot of time developing it yet. I still have to come up with a few character names, race routes(using real roads), and some other stuff.
