    fairwell (but not goodbye)

    Gang, After 10.5 years of NSX ownership today I have to say farewell to my NSX family. It's been a great ride and my 92 NSX has been the best, most fun, most reliable car I've ever known and owned. Reason for trading it in is simply not driving it enough anymore (less than 2k miles in last 3...

    I just joined the 100K club

    Tonight, at 9:55pm EST, 1992 chassis# 455 red turned 100,000.00 miles. About a couple of miles before joining the club, I had the (stupid) idea to celebrate this event :biggrin: . Empty interstate, no cops and a few seconds later the big leading "1" greeted me and will be there for another...

None of them has any HPDE or even autocross experience and some of them cannot even be described as car enthusiasts.
