But the ones that should be to benefit are the ones following the rules of business, paying the taxes and insurance, licenses etc.
That rules out half of the shops in town.

BWHAHAHAHA!!!
:lol:
well they have to appear to be 'legal' then.
atleast have a registered name with the damm state!

I think the ones that don't play by the same rules shouldn't be in it. If there are shops interested in competing, they need to at least be legal businesses. Who does that rule out?

Well can I race under "Barton Jewelers" - Since this is a company my mother and I started. and and still have a business license and Tax ID for?

[Raptor]

Nice try, but no. It needs to be a shop in the import performance industry, sorry i didn't make that clear.

this should be interesting.... but the point is, what is it going to prove? which shop is better at making powerfull cars?

I cleaned up the stupid posts. The point is to raise the bar for performance shops in the area as well as have some fun competition. It gives a chance for the local shops to showcase some of the things they might normally not have the chance to show etc. Not a bad move for any shop to compete IMO.

DSMs suck for autocross. You spend too much time at low speeds in parking lot racing. DSM 1st gears usually suck getting into and out of and turbos spool slow in low gears.

Hey, maybe this is a good reason for JET to go legit, get your business legal and you can get in on this too.:bounce:
I am already working on that! I have the business license paperwork on the way. It is just a side job right now, but I am suprised at how much business is picking up. It definately has potential, now if I can just find more time! :bounce:
