Welcome! What part of Okc?

[jimbobrand]

You Oklahoma guys should check out www.oksc.org.
It's a local Subaru owners group that's been around since 2002. Lots of knowledgeable people and a good forum.

Enjoy the FRS- I know i'm loving my BRZ so far.

I do very quick trips through the Griffin Park parking lot. You pull a lot of tight turns in there, but you have to be careful of the curbs.
As I'm driving past, I'll swing in real quick. Takes less than I'm guessing 15 seconds to run it. Then I'm out and on my way. Unless the wrong person just happens to be driving by in that time-window, I know I won't get in trouble.

Thanks for the link jimbobrand

Just spotted a Raven or Asphault one at the Conoco on Porter/Robinson. Female driver. Right next to my neighborhood. I was driving my wife's car at the time or I might have turned around to say hello.

Spotted a red one on 35N getting off on 240.

Confirmed that the memorial station has 93 octane. Updated my original post with info.

[ChrisOkc8]

Well that's good to know. How much was it for 93?

[mo8ius]

$4.49 at the Memorial station.

Also verified that Red Rock on N.50th and Santa Fe has it. It's not the standalone pumps on that corner but the set of pumps right in front of their gated building on the NW corner of that intersection. I think hours of operation are limited (not 24/7) so it might not always be an option but it's the closest to my work. I'll probably get some from there on Friday and post what their price is.

Edit: $5.00 at Red Rock

[ChrisOkc8]

Thanks for verifying that for me. That's still pretty pricey. I would rather have 93 over 91.

So, what will be everyone's first mod to their Fr-s/Brz?

[mo8ius]

perhaps an e-brake drift knob and some new rims and tires.
I've done some browsing on rims and tires, but until I get the money together I haven't committed to any particular combo. This is with AutoX CS category in mind as well as drifting, so I'll need to get a combo that retains the same overall dimensions as the stock set. There are several threads on this in the HPDE/AutoX sections of the forum that I've been looking through.

I'm going to be interested in a TRD Supercharger once it becomes available.

If anyone is interested, the Porsche Club in OKC is holding an autocross at the Sheriff's training grounds on Sunday, July 15. Cost is $30 and they have helmets for you to borrow if you don't have your own. I've been to a few before and the guys there are great and helpful. I plan on being out there with my BRZ. Here's the info:

How did the autox event go last weekend? I'm registered for the okscca event this coming Sunday. Looking forward to it.

Edit: found your other post with the vid in AutoX

[ChrisOkc8]

Let us know how it goes. I would love to do some AutoX when I get my car.
