I'd love to come watch and learn from you sometime.
Where in pa do you go by the way? I'll have to figure out how long it would take me to get there.
Sure that sounds like fun. I only have 1 snell helmet and 2 DOT helmets but they have snell helmets they loan you there so it shouldn't be a problem. Also, they will take you for a ride in some of those exotics too if you ask nicely!
as for the srt6 handling, i was disappointed with it for the first year or so, I honestly felt my old tiburon (h&r springs, traction bars, front and rear upgraded sway bars, front and rear strut bars) handled better on the roadcourse even though it was fwd. but once i got my tires and tire sizes and air pressure worked out (and got used to the car more) i think the car does fantastic now. I am really confident with driving it now and was pleased at how well it did.
i may take the hhr ss out there one day too lol. it handles nice but on some corners with any sort of left or right grade to it the rear end wants to swing out with absolutely no notice and then the stability control jumps in really hard and it scares the sh*t out of you. Because of that i would be scared to push it very hard on the track, a big part of that may just be the crappy (really crappy) stock tires that came on it though.
Thanks guys and sorry about the pics being delete/re-uploaded. when i ran them through the image converter to make them smaller it put little lines through the pics (checkerboard) and made them dull looking for some reason. it did it again the 2nd time so i just gave up. i will upload the originals later when i have time.
