Maybe I should look into autocrossing. If I knock down a few cones learning how to get the tail out in a controlled manner it isn't going to hurt anything.
We can all use a driver modification

If had any advice to give in making the adjustment to the FRS/BRZ platform would be to rely less on accelerating through the turn. Instead take advantage of the car's incredible turn in and carry more speed (momentum) through your turn. Squeeze the throttle slower as pass your apex.

I mostly race AWD so I'm used to hammering the throttle way before the apex so hopping into this car resulted in excessive power on oversteer due to my driving style. Once I adapted it was more about controlling a momentum drift and that is when the "magic" of racing this car comes to light.

We can tune out much of the on throttle oversteerwith our custom valved suspension so when you're ready give us a call. After all the sooner you can get on the throttle the faster your lap will be

Thanks,
