I actually thought about putting pin stripes up the hood like that car has. Now that I have seen it, I gotta say it doesnt look too bad. Of course, I cant do it now as it would just be copying a highly circulated picture.

yeah, there are a lot of cool places in IC.
im voting for IC preferably, or CR secondly.
i would prefer not to go to the QC, just because its a two hour drive for me, and im already sick of driving there for my autocrosses.

Well you know, I was thinking that the entire route through there was your idea which means - your fault... I gotta pawn that **** off on someone and you were the only other person there. I'll probably start on it tomorrow, and do a bit of Eric's stuff at the same time.

Dont forget Saturday - My place, be there.

Tues is my B-day, and you said that you were doing the auto-x sun/mon so I mentioned sat and you said you were cool with it. Tues is my last day off, so if there is a day I end up staying up late, I'd rather it not be tues. I'll probably end up calling you tomorrow and letting you know whats going on for sure and also to fill you in on my wheel bearing adventure.

As fas as a place in IC, Im really not sure either. This would be a good time for Jason to chime in and tell us what a good spot would be, as he lives in the area.

Blade: yeah, this corner tightens up a bit.
Ian: .....(floors gas pedal)
Blade: whoa, easy man, hey!...(car overcooks a little much, Ian tries to countersteer)
Ian: oh *****!!
Blade: dude, tree, Tree, TREE!!!
Ian: i know!


needless to say, Ian got a sobriety test, a ticket for (i think it was "careless driving", right) for like $83 or something like that, and, the DNR guy even helped us push it out of the rocks/ditch/sholder/whatever you call it.

Great, now no one will come to the meet. They now know what happened!!! Thats pretty much what happened, and it sucked quite a bit. Seriously the worst part was all the other people driving by staring.
