I like Hyde.

If you want to run him into walls please don't. Instead just put him a nice container and send him my way. Ill ensure he's treat properly :D

It's got to put your heart in your throat when that happens! I've done the same thing in my old GTS-t a few times. Either there is too much camber in the track, which was the case at Meremere here, or your alignment is out slightly.

Odd... He's in NZ... yet still knows where a random race track is here in the states... which is on the other side of the world.

Sure, but after a while the fumes and noise would get to you.

You guys suck, put that photo away! :p

RedNeck383 , he probably knew where Maple Grove is because it is one of the NHRA tracks ... it is on of the places to run ;) and it is 15 minutes from me :D

ac427cpe, very observant! I was extremely pleased that my eye was on where I wanted to go, not what I was hitting! Those autocross skills really kicked in.

ac427cpe, they stole that photo from my Web site ... that was my last Turbo MR2.
That crunch happened in the fall of '98.
