Racing and my car...

Wow. im getting realy skeptical about my driving skills. Would it be possible for someone to take my car down the track 4 me to see wat it can do. I dont even have any idea wat it can run. Or if im even able to pass tech.

if your battery is held down and you have functional seat belts you will most likely pass tech.
as far as having someone else drive teh car you would have to ask teh track. as far as i know the only person who is supposed to be behind the wheels is the person who is listed on the tech card.
don't doubt your driving skills. if you can pull away from a stop light without weaving violently across lanes you are plenty qualified to drag race.

get teh battery held down good and go for it.
i have seen belts, bungees, rope, scrap metal, foam blocks.........any number of things used to hold a battery in place. just use you imagination and anything you have laying around the house/garage.
