Moto-P's, from the looks of it. The value of the JDM goodness on the car alone is enough to put a -massive- downpayment on an FR-S.

I'd give organs to have those dori dori's.

I felt in mid corner grip level was similar. But on exit the power deficiency show and on entry the braking performance is not to par. I don't think I posted a very good time, just didn't really want to push the car at higher speed, to me it felt uneasy.

Ah so that was you out there in the FRS,

Did you see the magazine, It finally came out. I let my friend drive my S13.5 for the event, as i had never driven SOW before and my car is less than managable (for someone of my severe track newbness) on true street tires,

I rarely run anything less sticky than an RS-3, so those continentals felt slightly wonky on the testing day (i went up friday to see if my car worked, as we had just had to change the suspension and brakes and we were on a completely new ECU and control strategy.

I can't wait to see if they will let me come back next year....

I had a hard time with my car because I got my car back the night before and it was very foreign to me. The rev speed driver put good time. I want to go again without worrying about sema and other responsibilities. It was s blast even the tires were basically Street tires. I remember your car it seem really hard to handle at the track.
