Not sure how you guys handle that lanyard/badge bouncing around and swinging like that. That would annoy the shit out of me.

@Teseo After a couple months of waiting, here's the video you requested! This is part 1, part 2 is coming up later or when I wake up..

Have to hit up auto-x or track eventually to find that "break loose" point. Oh, in the rain... slices through water like a knife through butter due to the massive rain grooves.

Yes, I do have traction full on because I'm still a shitty driver :P Only did 3 second press in auto-x.

Here's the 2nd video:

When you are focused on trying not to crash, you eventually forget about it. I also use it as my ghetto g-meter

I guess I'm broken.

To me it just seems slightly less barbaric than foot binding. I find comfort the most attractive of all.

I was going to remark on that. Pretty funny watching it swing with such purpose.

Your brother looks like a fed with that earpiece.

Btw, I've had little thoughts off and on about getting a different car past couple months but yesterday's drive made me remember why I fell in love in the first place...

Beating the piss out of it for most of the day and still ended up with 1/4 tank of gas left to get home is also a plus!

Some actually asked that yesterday at the drive

Guess he got tired of me asking "what did they say?"

@Decay107 and I had a mini debate yesterday over whether the 86 is the new Z or if it's the new Miata. I still feel like it's more Z than Miata but he had a point in that the Z was quite powerful in its heyday.

There really is no other car for the money.

To be fair, my point about it being the new miata was more in reference to just how many you see at motorsport events rather than what it is like to drive.

If we are just talking direct comparison, it's more the new 240sx than it is either the new Z or the new Miata.
