I just saw the news and Sebastian Bordeaux from Indy can fame went down to the WRX Experience on the gold coast to have some r n r on his first lap he rolled the WRX

He was ok but the car didn't look to good

By the look of the pictures on TV i took the corner better and faster than him and i'm no Indy driver

Its probably cause hes used to the banking turns - let the car steer itself Daytona style :)

Its about $350ish for 6 laps. It is worth it every time i go there

News late tonight says $30k damage to the WRX. As the instructor at the WRX says every year when the indy drivers come for a play they find it real hard to give intructions after all they are professional drivers.
