First outing for the MR2 after getting Annex Suspension CSP coilovers installed and ready for testing. We ended up going almost 2 seconds faster than this video, but the GoPro freaked out during recording. More content to come as we get the car more dialed. The FRS is currently waiting for some refresh parts and maybe some boost, but you will have to wait and see!
