Nice vid, and you've got quite the car collection. Which out-drives which, the M3 or the talon?

both cars weigh over 3100 lbs and have similar suspension upgrades (gc coilover, sway bars) but the m3 has more power: 255-260 bhp chipped vs talon 210+3"catback+knFilter (=225 bhp?)

oh i only have 2 cars; these were my ex'es, now removed from sig:

Nice purchase An.  What venue is that?  That is a wide open autoX, driving the formula sae car there would be... unreal.  Be fun for the talon though.

WOW!  That looks like a LOT of fun.  

We have had local sanctioning bodies complain about our events and we never come close to exceeding Solo1 limits.  That is WAY out of Solo1 limits.

Very nice car collection btw. :)

That's incredible!  I only wish there was a venue like that around here.  I'd probably have to buy property around there.

Is the talon being replaced as your racecar, An?
