It was great seeing all the FRS and BRZ there. That's the most I've ever seen at a event personally. Great meeting all you guys.

i have to agree with you on this one!! i echo the same sentiment, it was nice to meet everyone. I wanted to stay for the podium but had to leave early given that i had to drive home on a donut, 50mph maximum speed certainly made for an interesting ride home. I've never been passed by so many big rigs on the freeway...

On the contrary, the FRS is a faster cornering platform. The S2k just feels fast...it isn't really fast...

Another great event.

Unfortunately, it was my first time at the track, so I wasn't able to do anything spectacular.

Many thanks to @CSG Mike and @CSG David for lending me a set of coil overs to try out while mine are being built.
It definitely gave me some ideas

Definitely looking forward to the next one, hopefully I'll be boosted by then

My 1st session not including lead-follow/end of my day featuring Alex and briefly, Julio.

The onboard camera was mounted on the head rest so the footage is quite shaky. (NEVER AGAIN)

fast forward to 10:00 if you just want to see the spin and my hands go completely off the steering wheel. lol..oh and I'm not sure who this is-at 9:05 a fellow FRS driver goes off track!
@CSG Mike I think its time for lessons.

let the fun/bashing begin!!

lesson learned. i didn't have a spare suction mount so i used the head mount i had and stuck it on the head rest.

amazingly, youtube fixed a lot of the shaking that was there in the original.
