10/10ths wasn't fast enough for me at the Hill climb. parts of that road make 300hp feel like you're riding a bicycle! that hill climb will make me mod my car a lot sooner than autoX/ track days will.

I did take a two corners at 11/10s and had an "oh shit I'm going to hit a cone" moment... but there were no cones (and no more road either) understeer for the freak out. 2nd time was understeer to snap oversteer to oh crap oh crap oh crap SAVE! it was actually due to gravel kicked up onto the road.

think next year i'll be using my fire suite + hans and i wouldn't be opposed to adding like a roll bar in there, i'de add cage to my STI, but only if it doesn't interfer with it being my grocery getter / friends jump into the back
