hello all! i'm from columbus, ohio

here's my new 2010 espresso black hatchback

it's an S with electronic windows/doors

we have plans to tint the windows, get a spoiler, get dark wheels with sticky tires, lower it a bit with coilovers or springs, get bracing and strut tower bar

it needs better motor mounts (i can feel the motor shift when my hands on the stick...crazy)

i'm sure a lot more mods will come...and i love that i can still fit two kids in the back!! the back seat is awesome! we have a '07 mazda 3 hatch and it doesn't have as much back seat space as my versa

Welcome! I absolutely love the espresso. Get more pics so we can see it's beauty. The Versa is by far the largest interior space car I have ever owned or been in.

the car is currently being waxed by my fiance hopefully we get some pics tonight when the sun starts to go down and you can really tell it's brown and not black

O! H!


Hehe, welcome to the forum. Where did you buy your car? I picked up my '09 from Ricart last year on New Year's Eve. I really like that color, I'm jealous they didn't have it last year.

my car on mid-ohio racetrack!

took our mazda to a driver's ed event with the porsche club of america and i took my car out during lunch

 

[Mogh]

For big events, they hire my company to come and powersweep the track to clean it off. Next time I go out there and sweep it, I'll take pics. An 8-ton Elgin sweeper on a racetrack is sure to turn some heads!

We are also trying to get raceday contracts to go out and sweep up after accidents. Fingers crossed!

oh yeah...passed a lot of people, not!

my fiance had a good time....i'll post some of the youtube later when he gets it all loaded...takes forever!

How fast do they allow you to drive on those tracks?

 

[frenchy chan]

for a "parade lap", they say 35 mph....i was hitting 50 probably at some points, but i'm not a racecar driver, so i still drove slow

 

[Hschlick84]

Alright, as long its within safe speeds. I can't imagine people driving fast on those tracks especially since the car isn't meant to be raced in.
