I get beat by everyone every time out and i stil have fun. The wny region is a bunch of fun drivers. Doing rally-x in flr is lame though. Its a great set up and the owner is as nice as can be but it takes forever to getanything rolling there.

It’s basically been said already.

-Good condition as far as maintenance and suspension parts  
-Good tires  
-Seat time

Start here. Proceed with mods as skill and comfort increase

Welcome to Street Mod, or as I like to call it, FWD Hell. Hatches only, please.

Like most of the good advice given in this thread, I agree with alignment, tire, and tire pressure for starters.

hatch for sure.

i would def rather start out in a stock class. but i have fun wrenching away at my car so i definitely land myself in that category.

it will probably be mostly gutted and hopefully on azenis with the suspension upgrades.
