It's now at the windstream building in Matthews. The music factory parking lot has been torn down. It's the first Saturday of every month. I think NC86.CLUB is having a meet in Greensboro this Saturday.

Oh cool - so the next one is August 6? I'll try and make it down! I'll also be at the Greensboro family pic day Saturday as well .

Made the jump to E85 yesterday with about 27,000 miles on the clock. Have been taking it very easy to let the tune learn, but there's noticeably more power everywhere. The car seems much more eager and responsive and revs a little more smoothly, not feeling quite so coarse.

Since I've been driving easily, I'm still getting over 30mpg (cpu indicated) and it cost about $17 to fill it up on the corn juice.

Enjoyed a little track time over the weekend with First Settlers PCA up at VIR running the South Course to celebrate the car's two year anniversary!.

Installed a set of the JPM Alcantara dash panels that I bought before they closed up. Wish I could've gotten more from them! As always, quality and customer service were both top notch. Install was easy as pie.

One more update - finally got around to installing the Intec CHMSL. Install is a bit of a pain, but not too terrible to knock out in about an hour by yourself.

Also including a couple pictures (photo credit to Sam Wright) of the last AutoX of the season!

With quite a lot of mixed emotion, I must conclude my build. The BRZ will be getting traded in today and finding a new home shortly thereafter. It was a terrific vehicle and a heap of fun to own and drive.

New build thread out there some where on the Audi?
What was the driving force on trading in the BRZ for the Audi as I am sure it was not an easy one?
