There tends to be a lot of Subaru things going on if you watch MN Subaru. Understanding you have an FR-S and are maybe not a member over there, there are other things too like Cars & Coffee and SW Sunday Cruise.

I'd be up for a cruise/meet but scheduling can be tough for me personally. I'm 1.5 hours away from the cities. I'm hoping for a nice long cruise to Mid-Ohio Sports car course i the 2nd weekend in April to go racing if you want a long drive to a track day

Join the mn86 page on fb. The kid that runs it is always trying to put something together. I think he's trying to do a monthly grill out kind of thing as well as little cruises and meets constantly.

He's a younger fella with a lot of enthusiasm but it could prove to be a good fun group. Will have to wait and see I spose.

I like to do a cruise that I call the Wisconscion in the spring and the fall. Ya, I know, corny. It's an all day drive thru the countryside of WI, stopping at Hansen's Hold up for lunch and working my way back. Starts early, but that's the price for a full day of driving. Schedule is flexible and all are welcome to join in. This year, it looks like it might be later April, if my tires arrive in time (I'm sure they will).

That sounds pretty fun. I did a motorcycle ride to there once last year, and would definitely do it again.

I have a major road trip coming up, so I'm going with Michelin PSS. Should do well for the trip and allow me to enjoy the road course at BIR during PG2016.1. I like the RE-71R's better, but the specs make the PSS better for the street. Since I'm heading for Atlanta, New Orleans & Austin, I figure a better road tire this time around. And yes, I will be dash-camming the Tail of the Dragon.

Everyone is welcome to tag along. The roads are fun to drive and the foods not bad. Weather permitting, she'll be out of the garage early this year (YES) and I should have her ready for serious fun by mid April.

KevinK121 · 03-10-2016, 10:56 AM

Makes sense on the tires

Dragon would be sweeeeeeeeet. I should make it a bucket list item.

I actually took the car out today thinking it was supposed to be nicer by now. Should be a beauty of a day tomorrow. Definitely looking good for the tail end of winter.

stokeless · 03-11-2016, 01:24 PM

my car has been out for a week

Oops, spoke too soon. Truck problems, she's out early.
