BTW
Good point to make about the helmets because the person I was riding with scared the carp out of me both times.

Yeah, I went slow as hell too the first lap (I was trying not to be that guy that crushes all the cones first go around). The second run was more fun when I put it into manual mode and could hold second gear, but I felt like i was just warming up. But I totally wish I could have went more times, timed and with stock cars to see difference between the two. They definitely would have had more time if they didn't go over the car specs. I went to the Lexus drive event a a few years back, when the LFA was making its rounds, and they let us drive both stock and F sport upgraded IS350's and the ISF, and there was no limit just get in as many rounds within the time limit. The LFA is a damn screamer by the way. Best sounding V10 hands down. The whiteout FRS does resemble the LFA IMO.
