I got to see them yesterday it looks like very good build quality and was a great prop angle. Almost in the middle of the standard location and the service location. I am also considering them.

Also anyone up for a weekend trip to Duluth and beyond? I forgot the route I took many years ago with MNHondas group but it was nice and lots of fun on the windy roads in the fall. I will try to find the route we took on mnhondas if it is still up.

I ordered the hood dampers today

My wife and I would probably be up for that depending on when. I had the same though and had been meaning to mention it.

Damn it y isn't my car fixed yet. I would've been down for that.

i am thinking mid to late october but i maybe going to drive to Denver on the weekend of the 11th ( wow thats next week!!!!!)to go see the girlfriends parents and see how brave I can be on pikes peak, maybe I will make it is 20 minutes haha.

Just looked up some info for Duluth area driving. If you guys wanted to drive up to gooseberry falls there is some camping available but it ends the weekend of the 19/20th. I can also see if my families cabin is free to use this weekend its just south of gooseberry. My thoughts were to drive up 35 to 210, then hit down town Duluth for lunch in canal park then go north on old 61 following the shore all the way to gooseberry falls if we go that far.

see map, :

Sadly 210 is closed because of a flood last year. The bridge is still out... but it maybe opened this fall sometime.

I love the drive up old 61. I would like to get some good shots of the BRZ up at Palisade Head.

The old 61 is always a good choice! Then we can all meet up here for a photo shoot

The drive up 61 to Grand Marais is nice also but the low speed limit makes it take FOREVER!

M3GH4N · 10-02-2013, 05:51 PM

I know this is kind of a long drive for most of us, but I figured I'd share it if anyone else is interested! I go to this one every year it's a great event

Dipstik-sportech · 10-02-2013, 06:11 PM

The limit is so slow and there is noooooo passing areas after beaver bay

neutron256 · 10-02-2013, 07:48 PM

Cars and Coffee is on Saturday.

I'll be there, is anyone else planning on going?

ciro · 10-02-2013, 08:31 PM

I looked up camping and it's basically full. Anyone know any roads in the cities for a drive and shoot. Duluth maybe out of the question this year. Afton maybe?

I'm going as long as the weather holds up. It looks like it's gonna rain though. Would love to meet up ahead and roll in together.

I've only been to Afton for skiing, not sure how picturesque it is this time of the year though. Anyone fancy a drive there?
