Criminal law and business law were awesome classes when I took them, lots of very good discussions.

It was 80F today, pretty nice....

I feel kinda sad now knowing that I won't be getting a launch BRZ. I'll probably get one in Summer of 2013, or something like that...

Maybe i'll buy used? Anyone else who is planning on buying late want to go the used route? The money I save can go straight into the car!

Cosworth parts anyone?

Hmmm I should probably not think about what car I'm going to get when I'm not close to finishing school at all, but Cosworth parts...mmm
HomemadeWRX got me excited with his talk of lightweight 300M rods. I like the idea of hollow stem valves too. I just hope increasing revs to say 8500 won't require a shorter stroke and wider bore.

I want to buy used, financial-wise. But ethics-wise I figure I owe Toyota an extra new car sale for finally doing something I like and can afford.

(still pending GenCoupe comparo test drives...)

Sent an email to Onlinemetals.com to see if they can get me some exhaust-sized titanium tubing, minimum order amount and pricing... Their site lists up to 1.5" dia 20g @~$30/ft, so what is 2.5" dia 18g going to be???

dumb ass Scion sent me an email just now about how they had a close encounter with a deer while filming their commercial and said how "graceful, quick, and artfully it performs." lmao!

Oh Scion and your ability to inform everyone with "QUICK" updates. THAT SHIT IS OLD NEWS!

LOL. I got that same email. I guess they were glad the FR-S was getting publicity.
