Re: My car should handle like it's on rails next spring

Yeah, the driver of my car really sucks

...but my friend (the STI guy) he is even worst then me that’s why I know STI handles better (but only in tight corners).
As for road course practice, I am still waiting for Englishtown to open their RC track

well if you ever want to go on road course, send me PM. we go to pocono which isn't too from from NYC. also lime rock is not too far either (CT). i race with www.themclub.net and we autocross at giants stadium, and road course with PDA. The etown course is very narrow in many sections and doesn't have safe "run off" areas like other purpose built road courses.
