Ice Racing taught me more about weight transfer than any other form of motorsport I've been involved in.

Thanks for the answers guys, that clarifies things. The Spec FRS is tempting, anyone local considering running one?
well, I'm leaving town for next season but I'm still keen. I may even be able to build one cheap while I'm working in the US

No oil cooler  ... but Q gets to keep his exhaust.

Hi everyone,
I'm on the move for work and I'll be in Long Beach in a few weeks on a 6-12 month contract. I'm thinking I'm going to end up with a lot of spare time on weekends and rather than sit on the beach staring at the ocean feeling homesick I could be standing on hot asphalt sucking exhaust fumes, sweating my balls off, feeling homesick but less so.
I'd appreciate if anyone who knows my personality could recommend a local AutoX'er or club I could get into contact with. I'm hoping to make friends, get some rides, maybe even a co-drive now and again if I'm lucky/worthy.
Cheers,
Shane

PM me the Mazda forum install link please? I've done enough sway bars in my time to know what I'm doing, but I'd like to see the specifics.
Cheers

Similar, but different.
I assume that is base warranty of 3 years (not the 6 with mine) and no prepaid maintenance (free 'the works' maintenance twice a year for six years from purchase, with replacement on wear items like shocks and clutch). Ceramic coating is also $1,000+ beyond putting on film alone. His lower mileage is also 2,000km lower than mine, which isn't much in the scheme of things.
He also says he can't afford to keep it, whereas I'm not pressured to sell any time soon.
Rational/reasonable clarification. Hopefully that helps your sale.

The car really wants an oil cooler in hotter climates even for solo... and for HPDE even in our climate. I think they should have added an option for an oil cooler.
I'm excited and expecting to participate.
Absolutely, this is a valid concern and possibly worth mentioning to SCCA? I'm also excite.

Yeah, I kinda heard that as "specifically valved for the BRZ/FR-S" as if he was talking up the standard Koni Sport for the camera. I'd be pretty dark if a spec car was built with one-off components only available from TireRack.

want to spend as much time behind the wheel as I can. The Koni yellows will be a bonus next season if I can afford it. My swaybar and endlinks have arrived, just scrounging the last few dollars to go have them installed. Hopefully the weather co-operates and I can make the final Oct 15th event with my new swaybar. That will probably be all the tread I have left anyway, then its onto studded winters and looking towards Ghost Lake
