Default Good Day At The Track

I went to PR today (Pacific Raceways at Seattle, WA) and had loads of fun.

Just thought I'd share with everyone, this incredible car never ceases to amaze me. I've done 6 track days so far this year (about 30+ since I got the car), and
except for the first few days, I have to admit I've abused this car big time. On average, I hit the rev limiter 2-3 times per track day (unintentional), almost always shift around 8300-8500, and brake at the limit, and yet, with 13,000 miles (~3500 track miles), this baby looks and drives like new. I just gave it a wash, and took this picture:



How can you not love this car?
