Found this old video circa 2011 of my buddy in his Impreza STi, after I snuck past him in my Integra.  

National Auto Sport Association (NASA) High Performance Driving Event (HPDE) Groups 1 and 2 have limited passing zones, so you end up with traffic jams.  Once a gap opens up though, a string of cars will punch through.

Funny stuff happening behind me that I wasn't fully aware of.  Poor NSX...  ::)

Love it.

I just can't get over how relaxed these guys are, just tapping his hands on the wheel like he's on the freeway.

I know right?  Did you see that other video that I posted with the guy flying through the Nurburgring in a hooptie?  So. Awesome.

"Your race car should drive easier than your street car."

Don't remember where that line was from, but a good reminder for us tuner boys to always stay focused on intended purpose and design.
