| Thought it would be interesting to see where people started the touge in and their initial times to see how far they've come from that point in time to where they are now. (I have a feeling that Kona started in the 4:3xs ) I started with a 2003 Celica SS-II with a best time of 5:05. Now, I drive a 4:52 in a Renault Twingo. So how far have you come, Touge Union? | |

| Started in my AE86, I think I was getting around 4:55 once I finally figured out how to build a car right. And ever since then I just kept practicing with it. Hard to believe it's been nearly two years, I should check the mileage on it. | |

| My first serious touge car was the MX-5 Superlight. When Touge Wars 2012 was ending, I was running around 4:42( according to MiNd ). That was right when I met Donnie and GK, and started touge racing seriously. | |

| First car was my Gen 1 MX-5. The earliest lap times I got in the thing were 4:38s as far as I can remember. But that car was just a copy of my FM3 car. Technically my first FM4 car was my MR-S getting about 4:38s as well.
Granted I actually believed 38s were just average back then. | |

| Actually 4:50 is badass for a first timer, cause my 49's were my fastest times | |

| ahh, fun times lol. I always told you that if you stuck with it you would get faster, and now your faster on the NDH than me. Not sure about the uphill because I haven't run it yet just for time. | |

| I started out with a 1st gen Miata when I began running NDH after joing Touge Union. I think my best time was about 5:00. Then I requested KIRK as my instructed and was running around 4:45-4:50 in an EG and then progressed to the EM1 and am now running 4:40.xxx.

| Ahh, I started driving the 86 back in forza 3. Didn't pay much attention to the time, I just liked the 86 being an ID fan back then. Now I actually started paying attention back in January I'd suppose. Got 4:52's and got angry But then I joined TU and now have a 4:39 | |
