Upstate Drive Thread....
'03 GPW w/blue interior
I haven't "officially" picked it up yet. I do have a deposit on it, and if all goes well I get her this coming Monday.
Not sure if I will auto x it yet. I have spent the last 4-5 yrs drag racing my turbo charged teg. I just want something to cruise around in. We'll see though, I hear auto x is fun.

If you are hoping the S to be a good drag racing car you may be dissapointed. A big block Chevvy would be better suited for drag strips. The S's main characteristics are it's ability to handle and turn sharp corners like a surgical knife.
let us know when you pick it up!
Boostn, since you are getting it Monday, you should come out to the Auto-x on the following Sunday, it will give you a chance to feel how the car drives, just try to get a feel for the car and don't worry about competing.

good to hear that you got a GPW. Did you get the one from Terrebonne Honda?

The S will be for weekend cruising, and maybe lapping/auto x. I am done with drag racing. The S has been a car that I have wanted for a very long time. Now that I am done with the whole drag racing thing Im getting one.
I will sure to post when I get possesion of her

I have always been used to front wheel drive cars, it will be different handling a rear wheel, especially if I really want to test it out.
I'll let you know either way if I can make it or not.
Thx,

Even if you don't drive it, you can get rides from a lot of the regulars. The MCO isn't super-serious with the competition rules and encourages passangers. James and I can give you the S2000 autocross experience and there are a good mix of good FWD, AWD and RWD drivers to get a sense of what different cars do.

I have never been in one, and the closest I have ever seen one is within 30 feet. Im confident though, im sure I will love it
I may show up Sunday, and jump in with one of you guys if that's cool.
Thx again.
