Cornering is not too bad, i disconnected the front swaybar because it loved to understeer, generally though it isnt bad provided its not wet and as you said it's pretty stable. I really need to get it aligned, havnt had one done to the car yet, looks like camber and castor have plenty of room for improvement.
Not sure about the s2000, at winton i was able to pass new xr6/8's down the straight so possibly was just quicker than him.
Yeah the window was flapping around quite a bit especially near the end of the back straight.

Thats not a bad affort passing XR6's etc on a straight, the celica must not weigh a lot now ..

[joey]

yeah i'd love to get it on some scales. I'd estimate around 800kg's or so.

Very cool video Joey! Your car sounds magnificent.

That was me in the S2000. This was my first outing on a track, so I was being very conservative. In the video, you'll notice I was fairly close to a couple of cars, plus Joey gradually gaining on me. I took a pretty wide line in the corner coming onto the back straight to allow another car through and then backed out to give myself some space on the next lap.

I wasn't far behind Joey in the lap times, I did a 1:39.95. You're right about the power of the S2000, my top speed was over 190km/h. Car was totally stock save for EBC Redstuff front pads.
