intercontinental drive exchange scheme !

[carsten.meurer]

for some time i have a pretty strange idea on my mind...

i would love to do some racing on far away tracks ( maybe bathurst, laguna seca, wherever ), and surely won't ship my racecar there for obvious reasons !
hiring a car from a professional team is also out of question, as i cannot afford theire rates !

now i thgought maybe others feel the same way, and someone who is fed up
racing his local bathurst track, would kill to do spa or the ring if only he could afford it !

now if people like this could get together somewhere on the web and try and find a match for what they want to do !
basically on - you race mine, i race yours - sheme !
this way you only have the expense of a race at your local track, for a far away race mixed in with a holiday !

of course there will be problems to overcome, like the level of preparation,
cost per race mile, entry fee or race lenght !
but me for sure would be willing to accept a compromise to race at those tracks.
its a matter of trusting someone who you do not know aswell, and giving your racecar to someone else is never nice, surely not if you do not know his racing background or driving style !

what are your thoughts about this ?

it just came to my mind again thinking about my options for this years phoenix park race ! take my car, find one locally... you got the idea !
