Almost didn't watch it when I saw 2015 MX5, then saw the ND peeking through in the background.
Shame they cut the last couple turns out of the lap.

Haha yeah, I thought it was with NC too.

Oh, did they remove some turns from their test course? I don't follow this one too much.

I was watching the moving map at the bottom, looks like there's a chicane & hairpin after their 'finish' line, that weren't included in the test.

My wife and I had so much fun.

I think one lap was like 2:10 with her in the car. That's pretty fast in the passenger seat. I'm amazed that she didn't say anything.

Happy that you guys get to enjoy the car together.

It looks best on the track. Even with the different coloured wheels.

Surprisingly she never said that. But she does say something if I'm tailgating someone.

LOL I don't know. It was parked at the pit lane.

That thing messed up my favorite shot of the day as well.

FRS/BRZ finally have a nice alternative to Jackson Racing SC kit.

This Edelbrock SC kit is pretty damn good. Their CARB tune seems really good too.

Definitely in the mod plan later down the road.

I would do the UEL header+tune NA set up first next year. I've driven that set up, and it's amazing.

Do it.

Affordable, strong, light, easily replaceable.

And it looks good with the right spec.

What more can we ask for, right?

Yes! I'm on my second set of 245/40/17. This will be my first time trying out the 255s. The AutoX guys run 255s since they prefer more grip than all out acceleration. Excited!
