Default i love race cars!!!!!

so i got a call from my friend today and he asked if i wanted to go and drive our school FSAE formula car (the one i mention last month). HELL YEA i do! lol. man, it was sooo much fun. there is no partial throttle tune on that thing so it was kinda hard to go around corners but i got used to it..

but none the less, it was fun as hell. its amazing how small those little cars are but theyre actually very roomy and the seats held my fat *** in there real well.

first couple laps ever in the car (a parking lot on campus)

YouTube - First time in the formula car

then once i got comfortable with it i let her rip

EDIT: i just realized that i put this in the wrong forum....mods please move to Videos

That looks fun, wish we had a parking lot like that near here. Just a bunch of residential neighborhoods unfortunately. Looked a lot like a Brickyard type parking lot...very cool

yea, we actually have about 3 more parking lots like this that are much much much bigger. but since this one is the least used, the campus cops will only allow us to block this one off.

i kinda wanna buy a beat mustang and hack the **** outta it. keep this one nice an clean.
