about as far as i get, is to watch a mate in the drift car days sometimes, i dont think there has been an actual tas club meet as of yet, but then again we dont have that many members yet.
i know the RS liberty boys meet up on a more regular basis, good bunch of guys too :)

One problem you may find with an auto is that it jerks when coming out of low gear (i.e. Accelerating out of a round about). This can be fixed/helped with an ECU reset though. Otherwise watch your oil, follow your service schedule and should be all good. Enjoy your new car!
