Yeah, suspension was fine, handled like a dream. I can't wait to take her out there this year. I'm just waiting on an o2 sensor and she should be ready.

She'd have passed the Skyline GT-R. Just like she passed those dudes on motorcycles in a Ford Transit van in Top Gear. LOL.

It works great to learn the orientation of the track. And a million times better than the controller. I cant even drive with the controller lol.

Yeah, she's no joke. Everytime I'm there she is just zippin around that track with carfuls of people in the ring-taxi, driftin every damn curve. You guys should see the looks on peoples faces when they zoom by. Halarious.

I was the only one for a while. And yeah, they always ask. I would say that there are maybe 20 of us here now. I haven't seen an FA5 yet tho. At least I'm boosted so it's still kinda unique, for now...

Oh yeah, it's a playseat. The new ones are out for the G25 wheel. They have a place for the seperate shifter. Too bad Ps3 doen't have any good games or I would get it.
