9-2? Kind of weak for a rental and that long trip. If it was say 9-5 I might be interested. I will be going to MIM for sure though. Had a blast last year and the track was great.

Well it is long enough, + it will be exclusive, possible to make many runs.
Prolly more than you need too.
But in the past they have always let people stay for the rest of the day & test & tune for free. They are usually open till 10 PM, have to find out for sure though.

You have to let me get use to driving it down the track/figuring out whats a best launching rpm and what-not... THEN i'll bet on it!!! I got "best times" in 3 cars before (not mine, friends) and 2 were manuals!! But yeah yeah could be the weight thing... whatever
