Re: So, are you a........
As a part of the "younger" generation of racers, or probably more accurately, a second generation racer, I still consider myself an apprentice driver/tuner, even after having competed in Super Stock for 4 years now. There is so much knowledge and little nuances, that you can't read in a book, that has been learned through decades of racing, that I hope to continue to learn through speaking with my father and fellow S/SS racers. I have not been fortunate enough to be part of a build, so that title can't apply. My father built and has raced our car since before I was born. But I try to take every chance I get to participate in engine rebuilds, car improvements, etc.

Re: So, are you a........
I consider myself as an A+ Driver.
Anyone who remembers the motorhome I used to drive, yes, The Original "Imperial Palace". The one with skull & cross bones on the front, hand painted black and gray, yes that one. To be able to get that thing to the track was an amazing ordeal, so, I consider myself a "driver". I don't know what the other two mean. Ron Ortiz U/SA a mind is a terrible thing.

Re: So, are you a........
After I purchase a race car I am the only one that works on it or drives it.
And I have built some race machines myself. So kinda both...
