ok gainsville i have no idea im down in miami but you get caught racing now they have all rights to confiscate your car and you go to jail you can still get arrested for hanging out at the local events youll get a nice fine for "illegal assembly" happned to both me and my brother so we really dont do to much of it anymore..

Hey man I live in Gainesville and drive an FC, though mines stock. There are 3 car meets that I know of Gainesville Racing (GVR) www.gainesvilleracing.com, International Mortorsports (INTMO) http://www.intmo.com/ and Revolution Motorsports (REV) www.theclub.digitalinsomnia.cc/(I think). I've lost track of their meet times but they should be on the sites. Good man!

Forget about street racing, just bring it to the 1/4 mile drags!

I love going to Da Ville. I've only seen one 7 up there, and it was at the UF parking lot, with a cracked S5 taillight. As far as racing goes, I do know that in Orlando, they still race on Saturday nights.

Racing should be done on the track! As exciting as the street scene is the risk factor isn't worth it!!

Hey I live in gainesville and have been here for about 5 years. I'm a student sometimes..other times im driving around in a black FD with Kouki tailights and a vented headlight...I've had two rx7s ...last year i had a montego blue one, that i blew the apex and sold because i couldn't afford to fix it at the time. Next i got a 93 red 240 with the sr20det and silvia front end conversion. that's the car i used to go to the race track with and the thursday night car meets up on the corner of nw 13th street and nw 23rd (taco bell parking lot). I love rx7, so i got another one. I'm trying to go out sometime too. I think Gainesville is the perfect place for people to meet that are from Jacksonville and orlando because it's right inbetween. Oh well...see whats up.
