    West and South Tx have some desert racing tracks. I am not sure how you get permission to get on them though. That is about the only places for 'fast' of roading around here. California has a lot of BLM land where people can go play. Texas is vastly privately owned so the public land is very small in comparison.

    Check out Monohans state park just west of Midland/odessa. I think there are some sand duns out there to play on.

    Thanks Aaron! I pmd the guy. Appreciate the lead!

    I've been staying pretty busy since I posted an ad for welding. I'm hoping I continue to stay busy. I need to find more ways to advertise though. Once I get so busy every night and weekend is booked I'm gonna quit my day job then buy a house with a shop somewhere. I already have the cash for a 20% down payment I just want a good stable income.

    Mobile repair and odd jobs. I have an ad on craigslist for welding and that's where all my leads are coming from.

    Alright guys. Currently working on a website, up on Angie's list, Dallas classifieds, and metroplex directory. Hopefully I start getting busy and I can quit my day job

    Can you make this on my current bumper to hold some back up lights? I have the lights but no plasma or torch to cut the hole.
