This one's nicer, and not much more, but you'd be eternally known as the "guy who drives the pumpkin": http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...or=&cardist=75

Holy crap, man! I would TOTALLY rock that orange one!

You really think an NA 1.6 MR2 would be competitive in ST2?

define competitive? Locally, sure...

at Nationals, nobody knows yet, since the class is all of about 5 months old.

I think it would be a heck of a lot of fun to drive, as ive driven a bone stock MkI MR2 and it was fun. Some bolt-ons would make it really neat.

Honestly, I'd, for now...get a set of Kumhos for the Civic, and stick to working on your driving rather than thinking about another car just yet. You're still in your learning phase, especially since taking a break.

Yeah, the more I think about it, that's probably the best for now. I'd like to think my driving has gotten a bit better in the 3 years I've been doing this, but I realize I have a long way to go.

I've never run on anything stickier than a 205/50/15 S-03, so I'm sure it'll be an interesting experience.

Off to eBay to look for wheels.

Honestly...he's close. Once you dialed it in for GS, and really got a handle on driving it, you shouldn't be more than a half second back from Jason in his RSX.

So what would you recommend? ECSTA V700 or Victroracers? Heat cycled? Shaved?

I hated my car in stock form. Get the MR2...




















and let me co-drive it.
