It didn't say we needed to bring anything. Does anyone know anything different?

Really you hated driving it? I saw it the other way. I autoX my Z so I could compare the two. The track wasn't that technical, but it made you an honest driver if you wanted to drive ***** out. I liked the performance of it in the tight turns and what not. My Z feels huge compared to it. All in all I would AutoX this car any day of the week.

I agree. Fun little car to drive. I was lucky and got to drive the Cooper Works edition. Tons of fun. Scretching tires all around the track. I would love to Auto-x this car with some good sticky tires, but for the price, I love my Evo X.

Of course ours Zs are cows in comparison, but there are comparable small cars (MR2, Miata, Cappuccino, etc).
