I can see 350Z at the finish line. Looks like 13.48 seconds to me.

My question is how the hell do you get there? You need to drive off-road just to get to the track. lol. My Z couldn't make it.

The roads out on the Big Island are largely covered by big tall trees. I'm sure it's a paved road to get there. It appears that the track was formerly the old Hilo air strip.

Take lots of money...lol

We spent our time on the big Island , so I cant help other than the money suggestion . Eating out is going to be the most exspensive . We ate breakfast every day at the Hotel...$15 for all you can eat . Dinner...most meals will be $50 per person at the least . Most activities will cost a bunch too . Let see ..Helicopter ride for 2, 2 hours = $800 ....Charter boat , deep sea fishing ended up to be an exspensive all day boat ride = $600 , ATV ride , 1 1/2 hours = $200 . Submarine ride 1 hour + $180 . This was for two people so add how many is in your family . HAVE FUN...LOL !!!
