Default Opinions of a MR.2 on the track

May acquire one, curious how they perform on the track..... never been in or drove one. It's N/A but that wouldn't last long.

Any one on here track one?

I used to drive my N/A like I stole it when I was younger. I loved the way it performed. Regardless, check out mr2oc.com for more information. They have some articles where professional drivers compare it to other vehicles.

best way to find out is to drive it, though.

Thanks for the feedback. The layout of the car being MR, i figured it "should" do well, I am only used to FWD and RX7's so this would be a new venture for me.

It's pretty rare to see one on a roadcourse. Not so rare at an autocross, but still not common.

IMHO they are great handling, fun, reliable, affordable cars... that are very easy to spin.

Yep. I had a 91 and 95 both turbos and wish I could have either back as a daily driver. Very easy to spin, but very fun cars that are different and get a lot of attention too. Buy a turbo though...If set up right those cars can be great for a road course, although it will still involve a lot of practice and a ton of skill.
