Yeah, until the owner let me take his turbocharged audi A4 wagon I had never driven a car for more than 100 ft. I'd like a turbo but I wasn't impressed with how some of the cars out there handled. For a $100 I could lower my truck back to the front stock height and stiffent up the suspension but I like playing on dry dirt way more than street.

The full sized image of this mini looks really good (like most of the others). The minis were decently quick. They had a tendency to squeal the tires on turns more but they very rarely lost control. The one in the picture also made an annoying sound like a mosquito buzzing in your ear.
Those guys would be in real trouble if I had the money, equipment and desire to build my own track car.
