Dysfnctnl85

As a prologue to my post:

1) I have never driven/ridden on a road course.

2) The only car I've ever driven is my Eclipse.



So I went to Atl Motor Speedway to check it out today, even though it rained last night because I expected the crowd to be small. I drove the RX-8 (wow, no torque, but I love revving that thing) and the MazdaSpeed Miata.



I have determined that my next car will be a Miata. Holy crap this thing handles amazing. I can only hope that my 7 will handle half as well as this thing did.



If any of you have been before, you know the course is setup for you to not speed. Well, I was on the gas as much as possible, even though I was afraid of hitting cones (refer to section 1 above). I drove it around twice, the second time losing traction around a few turns. My only complaint with this car is that you can't really feel the turbo until around 5000rpm, WTF?



So I think my next project (as soon as I get my current one running ) will be a 13b into a Miata.
