Just completed the one day advanced drvers course on Road America. What a blast! The 43 aquited itself great on the autocross. Though certainly no miata it will actually drift nicely when pushed and it more than fast enough for the shortcourse. Though an understeerer by nature it does exrtremely well on everything except on 180 degree turns where understeer limits the ultimate speeds possible. The instructors were amazed at the nimbleness of what is a 2.5 ton car easily exceeding 3 series bimmers and keeping up with a c63S. The main handicap was the tires, though they are grippy they are not autocross material, they would be more appropriate for the road corse proper. The chassis, steering and brakes were more than up to the job. Fabulous! LOVE THIS CAR.

Back in the day I remember wearing out a new set of tires at the 2 day tactical driving school.
Not only was it building skills, it was super fun!

Unfortunaly no, too busy driving. Next spring Ill be doing the second part of the class with actual track time on the course rather than autocross. Ill plan better next time to grab some vid.
