But... it's cheaper THIS way!!! (Page 3 of 3)

Thou aforementioned inference that thou may not prefer to "incriminate" thineself by praising the awesomeness of this vehicular entity in front of those who shall judge is wise beyond known years. If thou desire the ability to race then take 5 days pence and purchase said chariot and let thou investment plant a seed that can grow into a bounty of nickels. It matters not to those at which you type toward, it's only to the of greater stature to at which you will be judged! Not to discount, the plague of the curse of thine people shall reek havoc across the lands if those common folk are trodden upon unfairly. So I say go forth and do as you will but forget not the wrath of your actions.

Dpvog, apparently you know understand the Fifth Amendment.  It just doesn't look like you understand how to use it.

The Right to Remain Silent is another good one.

No, I didn't drive anywhere last night.  Nor was I that intoxicated. 

Regarding you and your wet dream of a race prepped potential LeMon.  You are right, it can be cheaper to buy a built car. 

The question is whether you are man enough to put your money where your mouth is, by buying the car and racing it or are you gonna blow off the car and keep going on about how contradictory the rules are?

The "right to remain silent" that everyone has heard on cop shows is precisely the common-speak Miranda notification of the arrestee's rights against self-incrimination as guarenteed under the fifth ammendment.  They are one and the same. 

As to whether I am "man enough" to put my money where my mouth is, that's not really my biggest problem.  I WANT to do it because it looks like a boat load of fun.  The real question is, can I find a bunch of guys to do it with?  I know plenty of people, but unfortunately, not many car guys.  The most obvious other driver besides myself just had surgery for a brain tumor (yes, really) and while the surgery went very well and he's doing great, he still hasn't recovered 100% eyesite, so while he's driving on the street okay, he's still worried about racing.  Then I have the usual other assortment of problems with other guys.  One guy is totally on board, but he's 6'5" and 320 lbs.  Another guy has only driven Solo II and doesn't like the idea of wheel to wheel racing.  Add in all the usual problems with wives, kids, time, money and so on and so forth, and it's just looking tough to field a team of drivers.
