There is an autocross in Richmond on the 26th, I might be heading there and a couple track events at Summit in April/May. I noticed that this car has a heavy butt, so oversteer does occur even (i drive AWD) so a nice coil set would be plus. But I am just going to change my type of driving to accommodate this issue haha

hey Real any update on your car? Also... I am swapping to the GS F sport 2016. I am still planning to track the car of course - first thing I plan to do is get a clear bra and then coils afterwards as my perception with the GS is that it is a little front heavy.

Hey, Yeah i picked it up. Been enjoying it. I drive it only weekends for now, it's a gas killer lol. I live in Maryland and commute to DC daily. What part of Va are you in?

The RC is a great cat just not the coupe I wanted. I got the GS as my family car and later get my sports car.

Plus not much difference between the RC and GS. Just the perception of the GS being heavier which I think can be addressed by RSR coilovers. I still plan to track the car for fun

And I have not. I will look into that can you provide a link?

There is a new track / racing complex in spotsylvania ; dominion raceway. Road course, oval, drag strip. Drive by it almost every day going up 95. May be worth checking that out.
