Nice... glad to hear you turned your Spyder into a racer.
They make fantastic track cars. Good luck with your MkI. PS: It's MkIII. If you really had a MkIV MR2 you would be very popular since it hasn't been made yet and probably isn't going to be made ever =P |

i've always liked aw11's. right now my supra is in pieces in my garage. my daily driver is my titan. i just filled my tank yesterday with credit card and $75 max
with credit card can not fill my tank full. i thought i rather spend the money on an aw11 than burning it on gas. gary ![]() |

Front straight wouldn't be the reason I would drive that track. I've got the longest front straight in the US only a little over three hours from my house at Brainerd International Raceway. You come out of turn 10 put the throttle on the floor and take a nap for 5200 feet
