And yes you do definately push your car on a road course. The speeds are so much higher, thus much more stress on the brakes. Last year at Englishtown, my brakes almost caught fire after I was done my 5 laps. I was full throttle on the car for about 80% of those 5 laps.

I know you ran there that one time when the pace car was out there keeping everyone's speed down, but how many times have you been since? Post that **** up when you're going dude I'm sure at least a few of us will come with you.

Have you ever even tried an autocross event? I never thought I would like certain types of fish, then I tried them and they were really good.

When something has foibles and won't handle perfectly, that gives it a particularly human quality as it makes mistakes. That's how we can build a relationship with a car that other people just won't get - Jeremy Clarkson
