What do you think our cars were made for? What do you use it for? where do you feel it performs best? Rationalize your answer and describe why.

Personally, I'm a canyon junkie. Can't get enough of those blind decreasing-radius turns and off-camber switchbacks!
The F/R layout, close to 50-50 weight distribution and suspension setups go to best use in the hills or on an auto-X course.
Again, that's just my humble opinion!

canyons? wtf are those? i'm in kansas for 8 months of the year so you'll have to forgive me

there's no option for "transportation device used in red-headed stepchild beating type driving"......

anyways, it's all about how your car looks. &nbsp;Nothing looks better than that gleaming, shining, glossy 240sx peaking through the caked on grime and brake dust of a car braking through the corner's entrance..... &nbsp;damn that's hot.

Has to be the track. &nbsp;I love seeing the 240 carving through the cones or rumble strips on the open track...

i would have to say , the car lags on drag strips , but its hella fun in the mountains, and for doing donuts , and ive actually taken my car through gorman , on hungry valley road for a little rally session , its way fun ...

i would say autocross.. i dunno.. no offense guys but personally, i just think that jap cars arent built to run only in a straight line .. its designed to run in combination of those three hehe &nbsp;<img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'> &nbsp;<img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'> &nbsp;<img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'> &nbsp;<img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>
