We met at the Riverside Dealer meet a year or so ago. That was, as I recall, my S5 Turbo Verts first time out.

Anyway, got an offer this morning I can't refuse. So won't be making the drive. But it sure sounds like there is great potential for a caravan.

My blue FD ran 10.66 on the first run at the local track and was told to slow down since I don't have a roll cage. Man I was told that Hector's FB ran 9.4x but the 2 supra runs 8's. Man wish I could make it but it's kidda too far for me
