    I always had a fantasy of renting a 700HP Hellcat or Mustang and doing a trackday. Wonder if people can still get away with doing that?

    I guess youd have to read the fine print & understand what the supplemental coverages do. Back when transams came with LSs I had rented one for a week and installed a dry kit to hit some T&Ts & street races to cheer up a friend. :) More recently rented a turbo mustang but it didnt have the track pack option and had all season tires.:) Strafffed around TX hill country for a few days.

    No...they can look at where the car is located and what it is doing at any time if they have their shit together. Some of them will email the rental agentcy the moment you pass threw the track gates...

    Oh, shit, you're right. I went back and looked at his message. That was how much he had slept over the past week! He said he could count the number of hours on one hand.

    That was a couple of weeks ago.

    A replacement V10 would be cheaper and 10x easier to locate. We warned him it was the highest mileage we had ever seen on one [65k haha]

    I thought you lived in Florida? I actually owned a house in Austin for about 5 years and I've never been to Texas Hill country. I hear it is nice, but since you have seen California roads and Texas Hill country, how does it compare?

    Shit that sounds just like me.....other than the well shit!

    LOLOLOL

    You know that salesman is explaining to his wife why his commissions have recently dropped.

    yes I live in FL but Im not in prison here...lol.
    Hill country is kind of nice actually, especially out by Lake LBJ...
    I like to visit and unwind... Never under any pressure to get anything done.
    I hadnt been until ~2011 about the same time COTA was being constructed... My cousin has his wedding venue
    at some place in Hill Country. The facility was fabulous... probably an hour from downtown Hyatt on the water.
    We spent 10 days there and I did as much as I could. It would be a great area for adventure riding.

    IL has adopted the same taxation scheme as CA. Residents are pissed, but, will continue to stay there and boil in the pot.

    Well one more reason to never move back. Not that I wanted to, move back, other than having family there. I would rather try and make some real good money somehow and buy my parents and sister a house closer to me, but at my current run rate, that’s a pipe dream.

    Where are you from in IL? I’m from the western burbs.

    Well for you I’m from another planet...LOL. I lived in Washington which is a suburb of Peoria. My dad worked for Caterpillar, blue collar for 31 years.

    My future son in law is from the western burbs, Cary, or is that too far to be called the burbs?

    Ah, okay. I grew up in Batavia, which is about as far west as it gets for the burbs. It's about 30 miles directly south from Cary.
