Forget the bodykits, check out the wheel gap on the 3000gt to the left.. Also I'm curious who's rear you were actually trying to capture.

Where does everyone typically park for the Starlite? I've been to it once this year and ended up stuck in the upper lot.

i usually just end up hiding my dirty, slow, stockish evo in the spectator parking lot. by the time i get the church lot is usually a mob scene. those old guys start setting up mid afternoon there staking out their spots.

Well they have a dedicated spot for the featured cars. So for imports, just go in the main light and enter that way. It's usually the first couple sections for the featured cars.

Interesting, people seem to think quite the opposite when i'm driving thier $300k cars.

I also haven't driven a car with any stability or traction control on the track in I don't know how long.

Increasing rear swaybar will increase tendency to oversteer. Increasing front sway bar will increase tendency to understeer.

Whiteline makes some great products for the X including their Front and Rear Sways as well as their Front Roll Center Adjustment Kit.

that comment wasn't directed at you, it was in reference to the possibility of a lemonhead sighting.

also, i don't care who's car you drive, or how much it costs, or what kind of stability/traction control is has. so don't get your panties in a bunch.

i stand corrected about the sway bars, but now think you're a bit too sensitive.

Nope its a six speed. Quite nice on the highway. Defiantly a very different experience from the RS to the MR. Like two different cars.
