Sorry to enter this discussion after seeing only a few
comments............TR7/8s are "Like nobody else's car".............They are
truly very cool...........I have a racing GT6 that I have never had out on the
track. I live in Maryland. Is there anyone whom can give me some guidance on
how I can get it on the track somewhere around here (Summit Point, etc)? I
only have one seat in it and I have been told that I need to have an
instructor in the car with me before they will let me out on my own. Is this
true? I would rather not have to put another seat in it. Any help would be
great! Thanks- Jay De Pol

Interesting idea. Better looking than Miatas for sure. Cheap too! But only
one within 500 miles of me in SC on EBay or CL.
