I did a nice drift turning right onto Warden but you were too far back to see it. Usually if there aren't any cars around I will do a crazy drift left turn at the corner of Rouge Valley and Enterprise. Had the stability set to Sport.

Nice thing about the white FR-S, it shows the details and trim well...when it's clean.

Not a good idea, please save driving like that for the track, not public roads. Doesn't matter if you can't see anyone around.

You are 100% correct.

I am doubtful I will ever take my car on a track as it is a daily driver, not insured for track use and I am having (somewhat irresponsible) fun in wet parking lots, quiet roads etc. A drift or 2 every once in a while is all the fun I need for now.

I am a bad, bad man.

I'd love to but a little worried about cracking up the car. With my son's 5 th birthday and other family obligations I'm kinda stuck for time.

If the economy heals and my business comes back to normal, I'll be buying wheels, tires, etc. and then seriously consider autocross. Probably a good way to humble someone about their driving skills.

define "cracking" up the car?

you're like my friend that thinks turning fast in a parking lot will break his engine when he hammers down at stop lights and onramps all the time.

you'll barely brake 80 kph at these events

Cracking up= need for a body shop/insurance claim

Probably a lame excuse for little time and funds available now.

My spots:
Kennedy Commons - April 25th, one of the first times they had it out on the road and in the public's eyes.



July 19th - Dark Knight Midnight Showing!



Just north of Hwy 7 and Leslie on a Saturday morning; actually pulled a U turn when I passed it so I could whip back and snap a shot.


This past Tuesday at Silver City (went to watch Total Recall)

[wbradley]

Interesting the one at Silver City looks gold in the light.

I saw you too. Sorry can't say HI because of the rain. Will do next time.

[brianc]

anyone scare the crap out of themselves in the rain yet?

Im running Star Specs in my rsx and I just spun out while turning at a local street.. Good thing it was 5am. Stupid puddles.

[7thgear]

i love rain

[brianc]

I hate rain my tires SUCK in them. Doesn't help that they are almost bald lol. on the DVP when I go into those long sweeping turns and I hit a puddle of water I loose steering for those few seconds and the car plows into the next lane.

BECAUSE RACE CAR.
