As Tuna mentioned it is exceptionally rewarding to drive it well. Never really gets old, and when it seems to ... just sign up for a day they drive it in reverse and it's a whole other ball game.
I will say that it plays exceptionally well to the 86 as it's essentially all turns. Even the one straight is a friggin turn.
So that means we get to stomp on high HP cars and make them drive their mirrors all day [emoji106]
Oh and it eats tires. Wore out a set of RE71r's from new to fucked in a 2 day even with Chin. Needless to say it was an awesome 2 days [emoji16]

I'm an old fart with years of racing experience. Raced in SCCA as a youngster. Have been doing track days for 11 years. Best known for my 2008 silver STI hatch, track car. Mostly I run with SCDA or BMW club. I'm typically #85.
Did Palmer 5-20-2022 in my new BRZ. My first dry outing. I was at LRP on 5-6. At Palmer we ran counterclockwise. I did a best of 1:56.
(See Journal) Engine and drivetrain are stock. I've done aero, BBK and suspension work and like the Cygnus X-1 Motorsports coilovers. I run 245 888R's. The car is amazingly neutral.
I love the track! I like it because it seems better suited to momentum cars that handle well. Prior to the BRZ I liked Club Motorsports in NH best. That was really suited to my 470 HP STI.
As to tire wear, it's easy to overdrive the tires and chew them up in the banking. The predominant lefthanders don't help the RF tire. The course was designed to be a counterclockwise track.
