TTAC: Quick Clip of FR-S
 

Nice to see he fits in the trunk. Looks good for me if I am gonna have a few JDM Girls...

can't wait to see Jack Baruth's take on it...

He complains about power on the track and yet he never downshifted, not once. He wasn't in the power band all the time. It was entertaining to watch though overall.

that would require shifting......
Something most Americans are allergic to :eyebulge:

I take that as a personal insult, good sir. ;)

He was also rolling in the automatic....

Huh? He's clearly driving a manual-equipped car. I'm not sure what you mean.

The thing is, you really don't want a high HP car for the track, at least not as a novice. You need to learn proper braking, cornering, weight transfer, etc. Otherwise you'll just end up braking too much and too early and forgetting to downshift like Mr. fatass reviewer. There's a good reason why Spec Miata is so popular.

Jeez, the guy drove like my grandmother. Not one bit of tire scrubbing noise, and the revs look like they barely hit 5K. :thumbdown:

This guy sounds way too feminine.

sheesh you guys are harsh. thought it was a pretty good review.

i liked it too
