What does he get, the chance to break a record and ride in a car about a second faster than his. Apparently he is so good he thinks he is a rock star and can just show up and drive.
What would I get out of it? A guy offering to drive my car who would take no responsibility for blowing it up if he over rev'd missing a shift. I can get a monkey to do that. He didn't even offer to help look after the logistics. Again, I can get a monkey to do that.
I would rather let the car sit than have this guy touch it.

You would get an actual good pass out of it since you have failed to do so on your own. You put a monkey behind the wheel of a 1000HP car and it goes tens, yes you've shown that repeatedly. And cars nowadays have rev limiters, read up on it. Why would I take responsibility for damages done to a car when all i'm doing is driving?
I live in MD, you are going to be in Cali. Why would I offer to help you out with logistics??? Seriously you need to get off your high horse. Money doesn't buy my respect and it obviously didn't buy you brains.
I made you an offer to help you out, you could have just declined instead of mudslinging but as you can see I can do that all day. Thanks for the entertainment. Good luck going nines in your 1000HP car with all the supporting mods. I will be the first to congratulate you and the achievement. Let the car sit, how does that affect me? Loll
Let's not just keep going back and forth. I offered to drive your car for you and you declined. End of story. Good luck

Its all good, but I know how he drives and if he did and it makes it down the track I bet he could get the job done. Hes a good driver and a good guy. Maybe cut him a little bit of slack?
Its an auto dude, over rev and missing a shift? Worst thing that will happen is it bounces off the rev limiter. Unless you installed a manual... now those misshifts are disastrous.
Hope you can make MIR and set the record yourself. Good luck.

You question my driving abilities when you have no idea what I have done. Rather than admitting that perhaps I know how to drive your response is some drivel about a millenium?
You and i are not on the same team. You gave what i consider to be a very sarcastic offer and that is why I responded the way I did. If you had of been even half way serious you would have sent me a pm rather than publically posting a krap offer of driving with no responsibility.
Dodger thanks for the offer but as this is this guys event, I have no real interest in attending.

My offer was genuine to drive. Not sure why you thought it was sarcastic. I'm not one to kiss Someones ***. And anybody that will drive Someones car and assume responsibility for damages is not very smart. You never know what can let go, breaking is part of racing. I wouldn't break it on purpose and have never broken someone elses car but I was covering my bases. Sorry you took it the wrong way.
Trust me I don't gain anything from you going or not going to the event besides seeing a Badass car run but you are welcome to attend.

Sorry, I just needed a laugh today. Glad to see everyone can play in the same sandbox and share the shovels.
