my bad, yeah 4.5 miles. I was running the full course and my only gripe would be that it's a little too flat. I like tracks with elevation changes like Thunderhill, Infineon, Willow Springs, Laguna. You are definitely lucky to have such a nice, wide and clean track like Miller!

Oh, here's what happened last Sunday. Right before the Super-bowl started, mischief occurred.

Nice way to post some girl's phone number for random internet guys.
I'd be heated.

The view from the Clubhouse is indeed awesome but you can't view the entire track. It should have been a bit higher.

Thats what they get for hitting on my bike before hitting on me!

Hey all,

Thought i should finally register after a while of just browsing the forum for the latest news on the ft-86 - healing what was posted about the "Calty's FT-86" really rubbed me up the wrong way and i felt i needed to post!

anyway, my name is Russ, I live in England, UK. I'm 22 and a Web Developer/Designer

hoping that the car comes out soon!

currently my daily run around is a Vauxhall Astra Bertone Coupe (most americans won't know what that is)

and one of these:

Triumph Daytona 675

hope to speak to you all soon :happy0180:

Russ.

Hi, I'm Tommy. I'm new here. I have a 93 Supra and RX7. I like the FT-86. But I'm in love with the FT-HS. Hopefully with enough emails and calls Toyota might build it.

Welcome Tommy

yeah, I've been in love with the FT-HS since it was introduced. This forum, however, is dedicated to a car that would be at least 1/2 that cost, and probably more fun per $.

I'd take both!

Thanks

I know, sadly theres no forums for the FT-HS

I like the 400hp and 0-6 in 4 seconds

But we have been campaigning on other forums to urge members to email/write/call Toyota with their support of a production FT-HS.

I'm hoping to kinda piggyback on this forum and start a campaign for a production FT-HS in the Other Vehicles Section
