maybe co-driving an enduro in one would be more attuned to my budget & attention span ;)
this is going to be a bit long term, aiming for pretty solid prep & an ARRC trip for 2010 at the earliest. But its the journey there that I intend to chronicle here.
The basis for this project is...
a good seat-of-the-pants feel & quick hands are a must for certain in any platform such as this
the wet has never been that scary in my Mk2, turns from the neutral that I've tuned it for into mild...
I'd love to get some seat time in a ITB Mk1 MR2 :eclipsee_steering:
if its anything like the Mk2, they definitely handle in a, uhh, unique way... master it and you could turn some heads, even at...
we need to compare notes ;)
You're driving the white one right?
we should compare notes at the next NASA event you can make it to :)
with final drive gearing being open, it would seem making torque at higher RPMs (aka horsepower) would be king...?
well enlighten us then...

a good friend of mine used those rooms over the garages the last time I was there, it seems like a killer deal and thats before you even think about the garage underneath
VIR has the nicest...
so an Expy towing an ITA MR2 on an open trailer should be childs play I take it?
for now, it'll have to be NASA Time Trials for me, just don't have the coin to pursue the build, cage, tow vehicle, trailer, etc. It'll take at least 1-2 years for me to get to that stage.
I'd...
www.trackpedia.com has a nice page on the track, videos, telemetry, turn-by-turn guides, etc :)
the entrance to the infield is pretty interesting, makes for some great racing because of the 2...
I was about to comment on the level of ADD here
I'd be interested to see how these cars end up, especially with a serious build. I think it could be a very competitive car
the MacStrut is a...
