Aodhan,

Do you plan to drive this car over the winter? If you do, you might want to check out some snow tires for it. Are there any driving courses available in your area this time of year? How about autocross events? Until you understand the limits of the car, just being careful might not be enough. Many people have been surprised by the car's behavior in certain situations.

 

Legal Bill. To answer your questions yes this car will be driven through the winter, so I will be getting good all season tires. It doesn't snow much in Seattle so I am not worried about that. As for the autocross's, theres plenty of them around here. I am usually at them twice a month. So yes the car will be autocrossed as well.

I am not to sure about the driving courses, but there's a Class at Portland International Raceway in March that I am planning tosign up for.

 

Do it,

Noone should be talked out of this car!
It is too good to miss out on.

Just work your way up slowly as far as pushing the envelope - if at all.

Enjoy,
Hockey
