-1 :frown:

wash and wax are done due to me heading out tonight as well :tongue: and with the impending likelyhood of an all nighter i cant say im sure ill be there.

though considering the "promptness" that this was planned im sure u guys will cut me some slack :biggrin:

as i trust you can see though im eager to go for a spin and meet a few more nsx owners so ill be all ears (or eyes) in anticipation of the next run hopefully sooner than later. :wink: ...x

hey its ok!! I was just throwing it out there I know its last minute so Ill look forward to you next time.

But in reality, I've been planning them forever and very few people come out. I think in the last 2 yrs Ive lived in Tampa, I had 2 solid groups go on 2 different occasions other than that, I just cruise and roll with the big boys in the popular annual events thru out FL but I prefer driving over car shows and story times.

 

[shawn110975]

so is it still on? just 2 NSX's? We need 3 or more,, Darn it!!

Im definately going, Ill PM you my contact info.

I'll confirm in a few, but I think my brother is coming in his rsx and his buddy in a 350z..nothing special, but my car needs ran!!

Shawn nice meeting ya! weather was nice and cool, traffic was not too bad. Did not see any police so that was a relief. I got over 80 minutes of video so Ill compile it and post it soon.

Shawn made it out in his 92 Blk NSX, my 98 Yellow and my brother and his buddy in their rsx and 350z.

Some of those turns were so tight, I almost lost it on one turn my back wheel was like 3 inches off the road doing like 80 into that sharp turn,, and your buddy in his 350 when i was behind him all i could smell was clutch and burnt rubber,, I almost wanna say the 350 doesnt handle as well as the NSX, he fish tailed a little more than I did LOL, def when i was behind you I just kinda followed your lead, speed, and the Carve into the turn,, was fun. thanks,, but I know that its all about shifting, not brakeing, if you shift lets say 3rd and give it some gas into a turn, it kinda feels like the NSX will follow the line your telling it to go with minimal over steer,, if you dont gun-it into the turn you actually lose traction ,,my 2 cents

Yea with out a question, the 350 cannot handle curves like the nsx. I use to run with TCS off but it has been so long I have to get comfortable running again with out it. The nsx definitely grips and handles very well. I love it! Granted it's not a track nor closed course and minimal effort was put going thru there but on closed course, his Z would be far back. HP numbers would be comparable but that's it.
