Answer
Hi Marco:

First, I do NOT street race, so the answer to the next question is NOWHERE.

Never caught,

Uusally they just make you pay a big fine, no jail time unless you hurt or kill somebody .

To fix up a car - - -well anywhere from $20 to $200,000.00  Depends on how fast you want to go !

Experience

I have been racing for 20 years, I have been the Central Florida SCCA Regional Championship points for 5 years running, and won the championship in my class 2 times. During my first start in the 60's I won many solo awards and the State Championship Drags. I serve as a senior instructor for SCCA, and have taught in Mercedes AMG events at Daytona, and Dodge Viper Days at Sebring International. I have been in the thick of the competition for all of my career. At one time or another I have driven race cars at speeds nearing 195 MPH. It's quite a ride !
