Ooooh, low blow!

I do occasionally take it out for a spin or 2. It is MB, it has a carbon hood, KS nose (pretty beat-up), and (until recently) a ridiculously large CF wing. At the moment I'm running a CF hatch sans wing, till I get a chance to remount it.

I don't believe I was in Berlin recently. Although I've driven it to work alot lately (190/290/Pike).

I do hope to see a few local folks @ LRP on 11/18, even if as spectators...personally, besides family commitments, I can't think of a better use of time on a Saturday morning....

Jeff

Like I said before, it will be tough not to get into another Impreza, with all the suby parts I have lying around. I've got a set of Stoptechs, Tein Flex coilovers, Cobb sway bar, EJ22T motor, STI BBS wheels with RA1's, and a pair of Recaro SPG's all collecting dust in the garage.
Pete, I know of 1 way to limit the amount of junk laying around gathering dust

I look forward to meeting you on the 18th. I went to a couple gatherings years ago with MARX7, haven't participated in ~6 yrs.

Anyone else gonna take a ride to scenic Lime Rock Park (Lakeville, CT) on Saturday 11/18? If you've never attended a track day this will be your last chance this year to see what it's all about ...

David just turned 18 about 44 minutes ago. That means that he can run with you guys at F1 so look out. His fastest time on Track 1 is around 19.3 and Track 2 is around 14.8. Count him in! We're in Florida for a wedding this weekend but let us know when you want to plan this F1 meet.

I've started looking for another FD. Consider this my WTB post. It must be damn clean and near stock. R1/R2 (or just a black interior) is a big plus, as well as being a '94/'95. I'd prefere a roller or one with a blown motor. I dont' expect much response to this, other than gossip and such. I just wanted to put it out there.

Thanks,
Pete

Definately LS, either LS2 or LS6, or a head/cam package on an LS1. I'd prefere not to open up the motor, so most likely LS2 or LS6. But head/cams in an LS1 might be cheaper and make more power. I'm not going to put the cart before the horse. I want to get the car first.

I also need to rent a two or three bay garage in the Worcester area. I need to store my mothers Mini for the winter and I need a place to work on this thing. I'm not going to take over the garage at my parents house or someone elses house.

So who plans on spending some time checking out the track scene @ Lime Rock on Saturday? Seems as though it's gonna be a great day for a drive, weather looks teriffic. Looks like a good opportunity to have an informal get together plus fun drive plus quality hang at the track! Who knows maybe some of you local cone crushers might catch the "big track" bug!!! Not a bad side effect if you ask me

Christian - Applications are in, just under the wire. Good luck to the two of you. Let's hope that you can be roomies! :-)

Rick - Nice gesture, calling David. He appreciated it.

Now for some rest!!!!
