We haven't done 8 since I've started running with them, but they might opt for it. If we do, we'll definitely need the finish flag guy to wave through the finish when it's your last time through.

In the twice that I've run the enduro, they were 4-lap runs. Even the two minute runs work the brakes pretty thoroughly. Both events started out in rain and progressively worked to full dry by the end of the day. Makes for some gamesmanship and guessing when everyone is dropping 8-10 seconds per run.

I may just hit up that meet this Saturday.

Huge car show at Long Branch Park, Liverpool NY on July 26th. Over 500 cars due to attend! Vendors/food/music/prizes the whole enchilada. One of my friends organized this show last year and says this is going to blow last years out of the water. Search "Street Scene" on Facebook for more information. Ill attach a link as soon as I can.

Can't make buffalo this Saturday, that's a hike for me. Plus I am most likely spending the day on the boat.

Ok guys. I would like to set up a local 86 meet. Trying to suit everyone here if at all possible. Post up ideas, weekends that you do not have available, where you are locate in CNY and I will try and schedule the event around that. I'm looking into a couple places now that would have us. I will post up a specific thread with a poll on dates and locations once I know the general interest in a big 86 meet locally.

Caution, old man on board! The Saab has got to go. I live in Elmira and enjoy a weekly 200 mile commute to my job in Western Pennsylvania. My son is the sales manager at a nearby GM dealership. He and the owner have instructions to scour the auctions for a used FR-S. Manual transmission is mandatory and i have no other preferences. I will have my FR-S before my 65th birthday in October or my pseudonym isn't lonborghini.

Why haven't i seen this before I have a raven w/ orange badges pretty hard to miss. Haven't seen any frs/brz around for awhile. Located near Cazenovia/Rome area but head up to Watertown every once an while.

What's up fella! I can't believe there's this many FRS on the road. I've probably seen like three. On my commute to school (substitute teacher) I see a red FRS parked at an apartment complex behind Bayberry Plaza, and a blue and white FRS on RT 31. Not sure who drives the blue, but as I was approaching it, I said to myself, "what car is this? looks pretty cool." as I drove by, the dude and I are looking at each other and once I passed him, I realized it was an FRS.

Why hello here! Just found this thread! I live south of Rochester but my dad lives in Syracuse so that's a good excuse to go to any meets! I've got a stock white BRZ you might see around rochester/finger lake area.

Does anybody in the CNY/ROC region have exhaust products installed made by Nameless Performance? I've been checking out youtube but would really like to hear something IRL.

Do you know of any fun roads in Syracuse where there is no chance of being caught by cops?

I've got the 5" muffled axle-back. Not particularly bad, aside from cold start-up. I do feel a little conspicuous/inconsiderate when I warm up the car first thing in the morning. Doesn't drone. Leaves you with the distinct impression that you're driving an old Beetle. Biggest problem with the youtube videos is that they're usually right after they put it on, so they're presented as louder than they ultimately end up. A week or so of driving loads up the walls and the muffler packing with some soot, and it knocks quite a few decibels out.

I can tell you that it does not work with the Curt hitch. At least, not without lots of modification.
