Default First track session with ITR.....wow!

I've been on a race track with my ITR for the first time. All I have to say is this car rules on the track. For your imagination, I was on the same track with my previous stock Prelude 4G VTEC 4WS for about 6 times and never ran better lap time than 2:53 (min:sec). Now with the stock ITR, I ran 2:47! Really great, the LSD is the best thing on the car, ITR is also strictly neutral, even if the 4WS on Prelude was also good. The ITR is way better all around.

Some pic from the track:

You don't need a helmet on this track (in fact on no track in my country). I think that the common fast road driving is far more dangerous that the driving on a track. There are huge safe zones all over the track, so there is no chance to get to the wall or anything liek this.

Hmm, wasn't Austrian Type-R going to this track also? I wonder how that turned out.

Was someone standing up and out of the sunroof to take that pic? That seems awfully not cool while at speed on track... I don't think driving without a helmet is cool either though, so whatever.

ITR owns on the track!

I would wear a helmet though, regardless of what the laws say...

The track is where the R rules.

Nice to hear you had a great time with the ITR on the track.

I'm pretty sure they just put the camera through the sunroof and took the picture. There's no need to get your panties in a bunch.

Very nice pic! That track looks awesome.

Was the ITR easier to drive on the track than the lude?
