Hey Guys, I know we got our monthly meet coming up in 1 week. ALSO, I'm gonna go drive some roads the next couple days. Im thinking we need another cruise day (we haven't done one here since June)...Thinking around the 14th. what i got mapped now is aboput 150 mile trip through some windy roads in Collin/Denton County area...I'll put more details up in a couple days. thinking th 14th or 15th would be good days as it's not the week of Christmas. Unless anyone has any other ideas, for a weekend thing. (I'd rather drive my car than sit around for hours)... BUT BE ON THE LOOKOUT for a thread soon

If your driving roads North of Denton you should come out to Eagles Canyon Raceway on Dec. 7th. They are having a toy run and for $50 + toy + 2 cans of food you get to do 4 sessions on the track. They are lead follow sessions with an instructor so the speeds don't ever get too fast and you don't have to worry about having the proper track setup (break pads, fluid, etc.).

I was stopped at a red light in downtown Ft Worth yesterday on my way home and a bicycle cop was motioning me to roll down my window. I was a little worried something was wrong, but he just wanted to ask about the car LOL

I had some like that happen but it was a mall cop after a movie show. I thought I parked in place is wasn't suppose to as there was valet parking near by. But nope he was just wanting a to ask about the car.

FYI to anyone planning to make the thursday meet, we have moved the meet to tonight so we miss the bad weather that should be happening tomorrow.

Took my FR-S out today. Made it to work with a little bit of rear end wiggle. DNT was driveable if u take it slow and careful. Be safe.

I took my truck to work. Just got the FR-S back from the body shop. Would hate to put it back in.

I've had to make several trips out and it's scary as hell. Spun around a few times coming out of the Highlands yesterday.
