Stance.
Hella flush.
An accident waiting to happen.
You know what I’m talking about: slammed imports with tires stretched across too-wide wheels. Pavement-scraping ride heights. Wheel offsets that don’t do a thing to help run times.
All show and no go.
Plus, those wheel-and-tire setups are a menace to society. Think about the children.

Those wheel-and-tire setups are a menace to society. Think about the children.
I remember when slammed mini-pickups were the rage. One guy wrote to a mini-truck magazine:
"I lowered my truck and now I'm replacing ball joints and tie rod ends every 6 months."
Duuh.
I liked this write up a lot.
Look, every scene has jerks in it, but most of the folks involved are just wonderful people sharing their loves with others. Really cool of you to expand to a very non-motorsports type of event, to see everyone welcomed. I loved the connection to the TNIA series.
I did my first track event at Charlotte in 2020, then another in 2021...next year I want to do two or three! It was an easy way to get on track for a low amount of money. Like you said, no commitment, no lengthy list of safety features needed to add, which adds a lot of cost and, maybe at times, inconvenience to our street cars.
Im glad that GRM continues, after these 6 years, to support TNIA, it's how I got to my first one. Im thankful for SCCA, GRM, and all of the event sponsors which offer a great day for little coin.
