    I would have liked to see you continue to learn with the Z. Friendly tip, if you want to learn to control the balance of a car do it at a safer limit with a tire that isn't more aggressive than 200tw. Something like an RS4 or Z3 would have been a better learning tire. I only say this because I made the exact same mistake myself.

    When you talked about upsetting the Z crowd by comparing it to a Miata because it's not *fast*, you went on to mention how big tires and good brakes made it a seat time car, where WOT became default.
    Humorous thought: these changes actually made it EVEN MORE like a Miata. In the best way.
