You probably need a SNELL approved, I think 2005 is the oldest allowed, but not sure. You can get a 2010 rated through SUMMIT for around 200 if you don't want to use a gross loaner

Burnt rubber odor again!

Dropped FRS at Big 2 today. I'm still getting burnt rubber odor in the cab. Last week the tech had resealed the head. I am not happy!
Here is my loaner......feels like I'm in a soccer ball!

Looks like it's going to be a pretty big showing of FR-S/BRZ at autocross.

Our loaners are brand, so they aren't gross yet. I wore one last week because I left my helmet home, but chrisbzr is right, loaners can be rank.

Not yet, we still need another of the twins, and one spot is left.

C'mon out and drive that car hard. Like every review claimed, that car is fun as hell driven all out, and autox is driven all out. We have instructors for those who want one.
