Thumbs up New here, from Kentucky.

It seems I made an "off" impression with my first post by disagreeing with someone on the "looks" of the Lotus Elise....so I'll try and make good here.

I'm an auto enthusiast from Louisville Kentucky. I'm into Drag, Autocross, and Road (but only hot lapping, not race). We dont compete much in VA, but last year one of my cars was at a few of of your autocrosses. I've purchased a few cars in VA as well, in Norfolk.

Thought I'd drop in, say hey, and look around. I noticed where some of you ( vette people) attend races in Bowling Green Kentucky. Cool.

Welcome to DragVA, as long as you've read the rules I'm sure that you'll do just fine

What types of cars do you race?

Autocross and Road, Lotus.

Drag, mostly Miata but also Rx7.

I like oddball cars. Small cars especially.

Hey and welcome. DragVA has an interesting chi about it, but once you get into it, it's addictive.

you drag a Miata? That's a first.

I'd like to see the specs of the drag Miata setup. Power/weight ratio should be impressive.
