You car just seems low on power.  My VE with 3" exhaust and stock 20 cams was all over you!  Somethings not right!

But Chris was there on Monday/Tuesday with his VE SE-R and I was there with my VE NX on Monday and lots of fun beating up on super charged and turbo charged Miata's.  Many people came over to say the car was fast.   The one guy who is also an Instructor actually thought my car was Turbo.    I took him for a ride and he was grinning ear to ear the whole time and giggling like a school girl.    We went out last in the pack of 8 and one by one sometimes 2 at a time he counted off the cars as I passed them.    Until I was in the lead.   So then he said pit in and do it again.    So we pitted and went out in the back of the pack and picked off the 8 cars one and sometimes 2 at a time again.    Then I came in put the car on the trailer and gave Chris my Cap/Rotor for his car since his grenaded!

I also took Kieran's car out that has blown 8611's and 6 year old Azenis' and I passed all the cars in that session and only pointed a 'vette buy!  So much fun. 

I was also at Pocono Friday-Sun and ran all *6* configurations Pocono has including the NASCAR tri-oval!   That tri-oval was *THE* most fun I've had at pocono.   Speedo was pegged a 1/4" passed the 150mph mark and I was at 7100 rpm in 5th going into turn 1 NASCAR.  The other configurations only things faster were ZR1's and instructors in tricked out Z06's.     Again too much fun.
