Being heavier just means that I need to learn to drive a little bit better than my lightweight opponant! I even autocross with a co-pilot since im just driving for fun right now.

Yup I've gained 15-20 lbs within the past 11 months after destroying my knee & leg. I've just gotten to the point where I can take my dog on short walks around the neighborhood. No jogging yet, and certainly no sports. Sucks.

Gotta say, I'm surprised at how many big ****** there are on this forum driving these tiny cars. You guys make hustler a flyweight.

I still exercise regularly - it's the only thing that keeps me sane sitting behind a computer for a living.
