American drivers

[graywolf624]

know of any organized rallies that an amatuer could enter in California. Of course, the Baja SCORE events are pretty accessible and very tempting.

There are plenty of ameutur rallies and hill climbs.. You just need to know where to look. If you want give me your location via pm and Ill find you a whole calendar of them in your region of the country.

There is a young Porsche factory driver who is an American, but he had to quit high school and go to Europe to get where he is today. Not many American parents really want that or would permit that for their children. Dannica Patrick, I believe also quit high school and went to England to race.

There are very few European NASCAR drivers.

Is there only like one F1 race in the US, its been held here maybe 6 times and in one of those everybody left the track after the first lap? NASCAR is every weekend. 24/7 if you have the Speed Channel.

Montoya is in NASCAR because he was fired from McLaren.
