So I got a heads up about a free track day at raceway park, NJ. This was not an opportunity I was going to pass up being financially strained at the moment. Got to finally see the legacy in all its track goodness. I was in a pack with a 200sx, my friend's MR2, and an S2000. When pushing it on a track with lots of sharps turns, the legacy loses its top end advantage but still maintains its quick acceleration and awd stability. All the cars in my pack were equally fast through the course and finished right behind one another. .....except the s2000 which was toying with us the entire time.

The hard part isn't finding an event--it's paying for it, and the huge drive most people around here (albany, ny) have to go through to get there. The one Silent went to looks awesome because it's affordable and reasonably close. Don't wanna hit a wall and have to drive home in a car resembling an empty bear can. :smile:

Yeah, that one would be hard to explain when I got home.

Mom: Why is your car totaled?

Me: Um...I was doing my best 'Speedracer' impression?
