I go to the track.

And sometimes 2nd and 3rd gear acceleration when I feel the need...

I use to always take my car there and push it very very hard when my sequential wasn’t working (I couldn’t go fast straight so found my rush other ways lol). I still go there now that it’s fixed but it’s definitely a much different approach with that huge secondary punch and requires more focus. I love the way the RX7 handles its very unique. Those late night uphill and downhill passes always quenched my thirst for being closer to the JDM life. The last time I went I pushed my car a little too hard and entered a pretty scary drift but handled it very well, I won’t lie since then I haven’t gone back. Maybe tommorow night I will reunite. There’s nothing like hearing the turbos spool tires screech and applying true driving skills to the pavement. I think there are a few peeps on this site that watch Options you know where im coming from. Rx7 owners don’t try this at home : )


ooh and whos Road would this be??? sounds like fun

Lots of fantastic roads in NZ which offer an exhillerating drive

This one in particular is made up a lot of 35kmh hairpins strung together with 100m straights. Shot from the weekend just gone.

I've already been out there 3 times this season & did a session during a heavy rain.

I figure my ***** are plenty big.........................

Not be an insensitive ***, but read about Trev & back road driving.
