[Dragsinger]

Dwight said, "Approach it with rational thinking and let that be your guide rather than temptation and ego."

Dwight, I always like your thoughts/comments and consider you to me a wise man.

And I agree with the concept, to me, it comes down to "what are your personal goals and desires."

If your desire is to home build a car that runs under the index that is a fine goal and I applaud your efforts.

If your goal is building a package capable of winning a Lucas race or National, again, I consider that a fine goal and I admire your efforts.

In addition to having a machine capable of winning, a racer may set a personal goal for training him or her self to drive at a competitive level.

Each racer will have different personal goals, it is one of the beauties of our sport.
