If this wasn't 5 hours away I'd jump at it
 How about a drive through NH mountains sometime?

I plan to be there with my BRZ. Probably won't show up at 11 but my girlfriend and I have sessions at 2 and 3 (wanted her to be familiar with the car before she learns stick if she drives it).
Sony, should I look for a BRZ or your big truck? |

I'm going to have to bail tomorrow. I already have my BRZ and I think I would rather spend the day driving it to the beach.
I have an 11:00 slot if anyone wants it. |

I have to bail, too. My friend is gonna let me drive his BRZ instead.
EDIT: Screw it, I'm going! I thought my friends were going to a drift event in NH today and I was gonna go, too. Turns out they aren't so my afternoon is free! See you guys there

Weather forecast for Foxborough: mostly sunny, high 79. NW wind between 7 and 9 MPH. Sounds like beautiful weather for pictures; I'm bringing the camera.

I got there early so they put me in with the 10am group. When I sat down I immediately noticed the lack of pedals at my feet. I wish they had had a manual. Also the traction controls had been removed and the cars were set for full traction which made for more understeer than I woud have liked. I liked the seats a lot though. The driving position felt great. I would love to drive this car on a more open ended course like the autocrosses I am used to. I saw a nice turn out of WRXs and Miatas.

That was a lot of fun! Didn't get quite as much seat time as I was hoping for, but got a nice taste of how balanced the car was. I was told I should've left it in first gear because 2nd gear was outside the powerband, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. The car reminds me a lot of a stock NA miata with grippy tires. The driving position was fabulous and the car was very responsive to steering and braking inputs.
It was really nice to meet some of you guys, too! Hopefully I'll have a BRZ by the end of next week. If for any reason it falls through, I'm definitely getting one eventually. I could even settle for a Firestorm or Raven FR-S 6MT with Bespoke, if I can't find another Galaxy Blue BRZ limited in the future!
