No rain up until 11 pm when Andrew (Qsig) and I left. The turbo reminds me of those geek to chic episodes on Maury. Where the skinny guys that got picked on in high school shows up on stage and have completed changed their look and attitude. Quite the difference. Unfortunately Pat will now be the first one to 50000 kms as he can't get out of the car.

Saw a WRB BRZ on the 417 eastbound at Greenbank and a black FRS in Chinatown.

Nice night for a drive.

Nice! What wheel/tire combo are you using? Big improvement over stock?

Rims are kosei k4r in 17*8 with 38 offset. Tires are 245/40/17 bfg rivals. It sticks very well probably around a 1.5-2 second improvement on the autocross circuit.

I thought they were Kosei wheels. I was surprised at the listed weight on TireRack...they're pretty light.

Lol. Thanks! I figured someone on here would have seen it parked there. I dropped it off at vision tinting. Only cost me $220

October 5th

How about we meet at noon at Canadian tire center. Make our way to Perth. Have a late lunch at Fiddleheads. Cruise on down to Calabogie (maybe take some pictures at the track or the boat launch on the way to the track. then head to the Mountain chute dam for some more pics. Thinking if we do it a bit earlier we can take advantage of the daylight for most of the trip. Thoughts?

Little late,
here are some photos from the Calabogie Cruise and Shine Car Show.
And a video link, just keep the volume down for the first 20 seconds.
Not as exciting as brz2013.
