Hahaha, I stand corrected!

 

If you still wanna do this but don't have deep pockets, SCCA runs winter rallys. I doubt it'll be as sweet as this, but I'd say the SCCA is probably under $50 and better for a novice. It's probably an more of an open lot/field with cones rather than a track.

And is it just me or does it look like the m3 is rocking some ZR1s?

 

Next event Jan 31

 

wow thats cool. They should setup a snocross track up there .

 

I had a buddy who went to that event. He had the 08STi.

I was thikning of going, but I'll spend the $20 to go the NER event in NH. It's closer and cheaper. I may go to the one in NY, but for now I'm gonna stick with the closer event this weekend.
