^^ What she said, bring the BRZ! NOTHING bad will happen to it unless you intentionally do something stupid. The new layout is very beginner friendly, and now that the curbs are in it's even safer.

The other car is actually for sale, which also leans me more towards the BRZ but the other one is also paid for..

My FR-S is nowhere near paid off, just don't drive like a moron and you'll be fine.

If passing is allowed in your run group, it'll be on specified straights only, and ONLY if you point the person past. Anyone not following the rules will be black flagged and given the boot. It's not a race, just casual lapping.

Well... it was fricken awesome..

I'll add this to the list of things I should have done long ago..

The car was flawless the whole day, a little pushy, but maybe that's to be expected with my staggered setup and I never turned off the nannies. Never shifted out of 3rd too for that matter, but as a first timer it was nice not needing to worry about shifting. A couple of places I definitely could have used a downshift, and with more practice maybe a shift into 4th, but I never hit the limiter once.
Track is awesome too btw

I'll definitely do this again, and I must say it was a good bunch of guys and gals there. Didn't get to meet you wp, but maybe at another event soon!

Is there any etiquette for posting pics? I know some didn't display license plates but many did...

Do it! I may sign up for it as well, though also considering the bmw school on the big track which I think is the same weekend.

Got chase video of your car for a whole lap if you want it

Otherwise these were the best laps I got with the gopro

Improved another 3 seconds on the last session but ran out of batteries by then. I also stayed in third gear the whole time.
