I love tracking this car
I just love this car. It is well built and handles great even in stock form. I went to the track this weekend (buttonwillow) with some buddys. This was my third track day (but first time at this track) and this was their first track day. A stock 2013 Frs vs a modded 2011 wrx, 200hp vs 300hp, RWD vs AWD, and only .4 seconds difference.
Now I need better brake pads. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sleu3x6Z5HE"]Eriks "drift" at Buttonwillow Raceway - YouTube[/ame] |

My first time was on Saturday; I thought I overcooked the same corner from your video and just went straight off into the dirt. Turns out I probably was fine but you know how that fear instinct sometimes kicks in makes you panic a little...
So overall my record is nine days, one off. I don't think I'm doing too bad
