Default Greetings from Iraq...

Hello everyone. I am in the Army, stationed way out here in the West Desert of Iraq. Lately, we have been working on a new site, Virginia Racing Network
This site will be a host to all types of racing, not just street racing, but Road and Circle Track. So anyone that wants to check it out, stop on over. I hope it's okay to mention it here. The site is free to join. And hopefully it will be up and running this weekend.

Just to give you a little history about what I have been doing. I own Hoverspeed Racing, and have ran several Import cars over the last few years. I have two Supra Turbos (both 1987), one of which will hopefully be breaking some records by year's end-as long as I get back home in time! And I also own a rare 745i Turbo, one of the only cars that BMW Turboed from the factory in the 80s. I would like to see that car get over 400 horses when I get home, but it needs some work to get there.

So anyways, I appreciate you guys letting me join your site and hope that some of you will stop by and hang out at ours.

Take care back in the VA,
Robert
