hahaha. Seriously, that was my first time with auto-X. I have done go karting twice if that helps, and I do play a ton of GT4, and Forza 4 whenever i get the chance.

Oh and I forgot to say, during out of the wide turns on the top right corner of the map, I got my foot caught between the clutch pedal and the left foot rest. HAHA. Had to wrestle my foot out while gasing it as hard as i could.

I learned a lot of tips from one of the senior drivers who was sitting next to me.
- Be smooth with the throttle control because I appearently tend to blip the throttle at times through the turns
- Be smooth with my steering inputs because they are too wide sometimes which causes a lot of understeer/oversteer.

Man, i am still grinning ear to ear and have joined VCMC.

I am trying to reflect on my experience with the Fr-S...
- I felt that the shifter was light and moving it into the different shift gates was very easy - i don't know if this is a positive or a negative thing for me. I will have to go for another test drive. LOL.
- The car still has a bit of body roll that I still don't like and will be looking for suspension/tires/wheels upgrades as the first mod. If I can get it tighter, I would love to get that chance. I/H/T will follow after - Intake being first. The elantra will be kept 100% stock.
- I want to buy the car tomorrow but I really have to play it safe and wait for 6 weeks. MAN. THIS IS TOUGH!
