Message	Then worry about upgrades. Get out to a couple of events and have fun. Get an instructor along to keep you in course and give you pointers. That's the best way to start, and your times will improve with skill and understanding. Car upgrades are secondary at this stage. As long as your car is in good running order and decent tires (you certainly don't need R-compounds yet), you're good to go. I regularly see good drivers run faster times in bone-stock cars over heavily modded newbies. Regards, My Zs are hybrid vehicles, they run on gasoline and money times change, people change, but the Z32 still kicks ass. - apudapus 16:46:02 06/15/07 I was more wondering how you set your climate control to 22* lol, it would be that fastest freezer on wheels! - Briscoe'sZ32 (NJ) 23:15:44 02/05/07 You have *got* to be getting a cut from B&B :D - SeedyROM 15:24:29 08/16/06 What do you think B&B stands for? - YugoBernie (NoVA) 15:57:09 08/16/06
