First track day in the SpecV, only problem is I didn't get to drive cause I didn't have the money for the entry fee. I let my friend take her out while I provided the media coverage since his car is in the shop...

Well I'm new, but I got everything cleaned up from the previous owner. I'll be needing quite a bit of help getting up to speed on the SpecV, but after my MX-6 I had last year I'm really excited to get this to the AutoX track. First thing to go is going to be the wheels. Previous owner painted them and then proceeded to run into curbs daily (at least thats how it looks). I'm going to keep these for the track, just going to get some good looking ones for daily driving.
Yes that is an '07 2.0S in the garage. My wife couldn't understand why I had to search for so long to find a car when she fell in love with hers so fast. I told her, its not that I want a Sentra, I want a 02-03 Sentra SE-R SpecV. She still doesn't get it.

Good stuff. I am in La Crosse for college right now, but I live in Waukesha. During summer we will have meets and stuff, since there are starting to be a good number of spec's in the southern WI area.

Nice Spec man. I too havent had my spec long also and the previous owner seemed to make love to the curves. I guess some people just can't drive. But enjoy yours take care.

It's an 03, so grey/black.

Yes Alex you are right, its grey and black, one of the reasons I snatched this car up the second I found it. I never really liked the red interior.

Trevor, I'm most likely going to whitewater this spring. I actually need to go back and finish what I started a few years ago. See I drank myself out of UWW a couple years ago, but I need to go back to finish my degree. We will have to keep in touch. PM me if you wanna meet up sometime.

I like it. I like the look of that factory height. Too bad you can't corner well with that

Yeah once I get my sterio in I'll be getting a set of track tires, next will be suspension work. I found out the hard way that the most important thing you can do at the track is suspension work. My old MX-6 got spanked at every race by a Neon w/ good tires and shocks. It probably also helped that the driver was an instructor for SCCA, but I'm sure the tires and suspension had something to do with that.
