Thanks.
Can't seem to find that info on FB. Is it in a closed C&C Detroit group then?

They did close the Cars, Coffee & Karts group for some reason but here is the event page for this saturday and the page for the normal meet at Kart 2 Kart.

I got "Ingot Silver". Going to tint the windows in the next week or two which will help the look. I should have some pictures shortly, been so busy at work I haven't even had time to take any.

Because the garage isn't done yet! And a house isn't a home without a garage.. lol

If having a meet + BBQ is the important part, why not just go to kensington one day or something? We could use the same parking lot that was used for the Xceed BBQ.

I am at the meet up. saw 3 brz's but I think you guys went to lunch. going to come back.

[Mac1235]

Ok so I stopped by the meet up on my motorcycle and checked out a few cars. Got to say, not impressed. Got there at 12:00 and there was barely any cars there. There was 3 BRZs, a red one, a blue with the ft86club.com sticker in the window, and another blue with gold wheels that pulled out as I arrived. I figured people might be getting some food at 12:00 but no one came back. I thought they had so many cars they couldn't fit them all?

Hopefully the next one is better, I see more cars on Woodward then I do at that meet up. There was two corvettes and a Nissan GTR and .... a bunch of Mazda 3's. Maybe an off week, someone will have to let me know.

Well, this was the first time having it at that place. Also, most people are usually only there for the first hour or two. Even at Kart 2 Kart, it starts dying out after 2 hours.

The galaxy blue with the ft86club sticker was mine. The red belongs to @ramiel and i'm not sure who owns the wrb one. Before that, @CallmeDave and @kask2_6.0 were there as well as a guy who works for toyota in a firestorm frs.

WRB one is mine. It was kinda too hot to hang out outside and I was on a schedule today. So I ran two quick kart races with a buddy and left. I do like this karting place, and it's a lot closer to me than kart2kart, so I might be showing up to this location more often.

I was only there for about 20 min or so. Finished my garage floor and moved into my new house today!

Awesome! On side a note to you or anyone who needs it I have half a quart of Motul 8100 left over from last oil change and I don't own the car anymore if anyone wants it.

I could take it off your hands as I'm sure I'll use it at some point.

So when you bringing the ST to a track day to try and keep up with the 86's? lol

[Sevs753]

Ha! Once it is out of the break in period and I put some new motor mounts in. Well according to head2head the ST does a faster lap time then the 86 lol.
Of course that is with a pro driver, so I would probably be a rolling ball of fire by lap 2.

Was out on Woodward tonight and it was hopping! Saw two FR-S's tonight and talked with the owners. I talked up the forums and tried to get them on, the one guy will come on and the other might not. Even without the car I am adding members! We talked about the the 86 staples; chirping, sliding, and cosmetic mods and they sat in and looked over the ST. Woodward was nuts from 13 mile to 14 mile, there was non stop drag racing and cops and a lot of high end cars.
