Save the 70mph for the track days. That is the EXACT reason I do them. Keeps me sane, and out of trouble with all the SUV and SAAB moms.

To be honest, I feel safer running 130 on track, nose to tail with 2 NSX's than I do at 20 in Charlotte traffic on 85.

+4,000, except not Charlotte traffic, and not quite as slow as 20, more like: than I do at 45 in Salt Lake City traffic on 7th East

That yellow evo looks pretty good considering Lancer's have one of the worst crash ratings!
