I will sell the N, yeah. Mostly because I’d choose to take out a manual lightweight RWD sports car over a FWD boostmobile 9/10 times. The N is a killer, but it’s not connected in the same ways until...

Absolutely without question the GR86 in terms of driving enjoyment.

I'm baaaaaaaaack!

No plans to change anything for a bit. The clutch is fine for me. It's really the throttle that always catches me off guard.



It's possible I'm too used to the boosted Elantra N brakes. I'll...

Who are you all running with for track days at the ridge these days? When I stopped going a few years ago, it was mostly Turn2. Now it looks like there are some other organizers.

I look forward to learning a few pointers from you at the ridge. I can't believe you're in the 1:55s! That's madness.

I haven't done a track day since selling my BRZ so I'll be very rusty.

That isn't that crazy actually. A set of Volks will put you well into the $3k band.
