Mazda 3 for the insurance break.

RSX-S for resale and long term buy.

Scion for today's styling, and a camry engine that shouldn't let you down.

hahhaa.

You were there? I went but only drove two cars, the RX-8 and 6. Drove a stick RX8 and kept stalling. The course they set up was too small/tight to get a feel for the car's ability anyways.

The drove the 6 and the timing system failed for my run. I've already driven a 3 before and the lines were long as hell for miatas in near 100 weather so I just went home.

Hehe, yeah. It was sorta fun there. It was pretty damn hot though... I went around 11:30pm... freakin' burning/scorching... and the giant soft pretzel was disgusting. There were however a lot of cute girls there though. YUM.
