I believe she has a black stripe on hers. Although it may have been removed since the bash.

Like our cars, it's not about the power as much as the handling. Keeping the bike nimble is way more fun than just blasting in a straight line.

But just to be a hypocrite, my CBR puts more power to the ground than the FRS -- for now...

Oh i agree however i would have guessed it would have been more as it only posted like 84. Seems low to me but they say thats about normal for this elevation from a 600.

I said goodbye to my BRZ this morning. I will not be saying goodbye to AZ86 however as these are some of the best people/car enthusiasts I've met!

When I first moved out here, before the rest of my family followed, I never thought I would meet so many people and make legitimate friendships. I look forward to future outings and events with the group!

Did you trade it in? Or just sell it?

Well got my open flash today from @Cross and I honestly have nothing but good things to say about it. First things first huge thanks to elliott for taking the time to show me how to set everything up and giving me a lot of information about it. Now for the good stuff I never really understood what the "torque dip" was really but after tuning the car it all made sense now and that dip is completely gone. Car feels a lot more alive can't wait to take it on a drive up Mt. Lemmon again. If anyone on here would like to join we can set up a time and date maybe after holidays?

I am glad to hear you're enjoying it, I keep expecting to hear @4azcats to come back and say something about his

Bring your laptop to the next Friday or Saturday event and I will help you set it up if you like and as always any questions you have you know you can ask me.

Also @4azcats and @Shad0ez there are updates not only to the tunes but to the Openflash itself including firmware and template. If you need any help getting this handled please let me know and I will do so. I need to update the files for your thumb drive, as I did for Kevin today. You're free to bring them to any meet and I will do it for you.

Also on the Pav's I am working on making it tonight we shall see if it works out as planned.

I pulled a lot of my parts and returned the interior and under the hood to mostly stock.

I bought a 2014 EVO GSR.

It's a lot of fun and more practical for getting the little one in and out of the back.
