THE C350
Wow that looks like fun wish I had my w203 still
Don't think a e320 Blutec with luxury suspension would be to much fun on a track.

Question

Were the brakes squeaking afterwards/still?

Nice video! The second half looks pretty lonely, though. Did that make you want to change anything about your setup?
Watching that makes me want to get an MX5.

Kinda makes me want to take my little coupey on the track. I think she'd do okay!

I hustled the beast, those were some good drivers. My setup is completely stock with the exception of race tires. (Continentals)

The C230 Sport is not a bad car. Ive owned 4 miatas but with the baby, I needed something with seats. Plus its more comfy going home.

Thanks for the complement, I actually host that event here in Atlanta. If anyone is interested its www.jzillatrackdays.com

The only thing I want to do is put H&R springs so it doesn't dive so much when braking. I also need about 30 more horses. Since the car is manual, i think I will try to find a W204 C300 Manual to replace this one.
