When you said east TX, ex Baptist and atheist I immediately thought, Sheldon? (sorry, fan of the show)

Welcome!

Racer car type, like the Subaru WRX ralley racing, stuff like that. I've just gotten into it though, because of my partner. He's a huge car fanatic. Haha. Thanks to everyone for the welcome. This place is awesome.

Welcome. Do you rallycross at all (American-style, cone course)?

Hiya Carl, welcome. What town in East Texas, if you don't mind my asking. My dad's side of the family is from Camp County -- Pittsburg and surrounding area.

I live in Hill Country now. I would love to live in the Long Pineys but I don't think I could stomach the backwards views of folks there.

Hello colonial, from your past masters in the UK.

Small town called Jefferson. Great place actually. But there is a lot of that backwards views sort of thing though.

No, sir. I just enjoy the cars themselves. I don't have that kind of free money lying around, and I've never raced so I'm sure I'd be terrible at it. Haha. My partner got me interested in cars, and showed me what rally racing is via videos and stuff.

Welcome
