El paso has a good SCCA club with a good AX and RR events. I attend a event in 08 that was alot of fun. Pretty far drive for me here in lubbock though. Your right Texas plate, inspection, and registration laws suck.

Well, once you're past Odessa on I-20 you can cruise at 80 and the LEOs won't give you so much as a glance since it's the legal speed limit. Don't think there's any interstates in FL that allow that. Also, you didn't exactly move to the most scenic part of the state, but it still has its charms if you look for them.
