I went to school at Drexel in Philly and live in the NY/NJ area. I own a 1990 240sx, great little car and great to setup for racing since it's relatively in-expensive and a ton of parts out there for em. I know a few guys who race the 240sx on the road course as well.
 
If you ever want to go up to Pocono to check out an HPDE let me know I'm an instructor up there and can hook yah up with a ride-along to really get you interested in racing!

Sounds like that would be awesome, but i work 6 days a week, sometimes 2/3 weeks in a row.
 
Stupid Dunkin' Donuts...
 
I don't really have a way up there ether.

Would a rid-long mean being in one of the cars being raced?

Well not during a race but during an HPDE which is a driving instructional clinic where we have "open" track time. Just as intense as racing but there is no actual competition going on. I routinely hit 120+ during an HPDE.

Sounds pretty sweet. I love when my friend hits that in his car. He's had it pretty close to 165. Lol, although I can't condone it, I love it. Such an oxy morron right there.
 
I'm gonna look up the 02 WRX tonight.
 
Later.

Yeah I actually drive slower/more carefully on the street now since I've been racing and doing HPDEs because I know the inherint dangers of going fast on the street compared to doing speed at the track. I wish the NJTP had flaggers on it!
