My house, 9am or so we should be there most of the day. I am supposed to have my new ramps ready by then so I planned on some cleaning as well as handling the brake line on the RX7 so I can get it ready to go out.
Plus of course the other members coming out, basically we should have plenty to keep us busy.

As for tonight I am hoping to bring both the Vette and the FRS if its ready.

Speaking of tonight I got called into work hooray for working on the car then going to work right after. So I may not make it now.

I haven't been on here for a while since I've been getting ready to ship out next week. I'll be gone a few months thanks again to everyone for the great experience and friendship in this community! I'll try to show up for next week's meet but if I don't see you then, see you guys in a few months!

So I parked next to a 10 series FR-S at Red Robin today. Had Texas plates though so guessing they aren't here.

I'd be up for an evening 88 run.

I think we have decided 830. 830 at the quik trip right off the freeway to 88

I was driving to pick up my date tonight for V-Day (first time I've ever done that, actually), headed eastbound on the US60. I was in the far left lane, and traffic started to slow. About 10 seconds after traffic slowed from 75-80 down to ~50, the car in front of me locked 'em up, and obliterated the van in front of them. Impact was ~40 mph into 0 mph.

Guys.

You dream about this sort of avoidance in video games, never mind real effing life. I'm not exaggerating when I say that, if I had my GoPro hooked up like I usually do, the video would have millions of views on YouTube in a matter of days.

I frankly don't care that I didn't have a camera rolling, because my car is my life right now, and totaling a motorcycle was hard enough on me.

What I did was use about ~30% of my braking power, and the rest to swerve in the open HOV lane to my left. I missed the car in front by less than a foot, and I was following about 15 feet away before impact. It was such a hard hit that I felt it. Thankfully, an officer was in traffic with us, and was able to help the people almost instantly.

I was nervous enough that I was taking a girl out on Valentine's Day, I certainly didn't need this to make it worse.

I want to thank Toyota/Subaru for making such a responsive car to help me miss that. Not many other cars would have allowed me to get out of the way like I did.

I just hope I wasn't a blithering idiot on my date.

EDIT: Needless to say, I'm not heading out to the 88 tonight. I'm still shaking it off.

Be careful out there. I got a ticket out there Wednesday. I was lucky the sheriff made the ticket to where it wasn't a criminal ticket. Hopefully I can go to traffic school.
