tC1 was a lot worse in the rain/wet, honestly. Slid/fishtailed all over.

If you had the stock tires I would agree how ever with out the stock and some proper tires they handled like a dream imho.

Yep, stock Yokohamas. They were pretty crappy.

ETA: I suspect the FR-S will still be better than the tC1 in the rain even with better tires on there, as the tC1 didn't have traction control and had an open diff.

I agree completely. tC1 had classic sleek lines. tC2, yuck.

I'll be leaving work around 7, so I probably won't get there until 8. We'll see how the weather holds up.

Hi,

For those of you who don't know me already, I run Mach V Motorsports, a shop in Sterling, VA. We've been around for about 15 years. I have a BRZ.



If y'all wanted to have a meet at the shop sometime, I could host. We're open Saturdays 12-5 already, so during that time slot would work out well.

Chick-fil-a tonight??
So I finally got my FR-S last night!!!! I will probably be bringing it over to Chick tonight around 7. Maybe some of you could make it out too. It will have a brand new clear bra that's being installed today. Didn't even get to drive it to work this morning... At least I'll have it for some joy rides this weekend.

Yeah, I'm picking up the car at 6 and I don't think Chick is that far away from his shop/house. Hope to see you there!
