Seriously looking forward to this weekend, looks like we've got quite a crowd building up!
The funny part about that bolded line, my fiancé was with me at the TOD and her exact words were "this is like a roller coaster from hell"

Aaand, I have it on video to prove lol

On Sunday I saw an FRS in Acworth and a BRZ on my way to Perimeter. Before that I rode along side one from 75/85 split up north to Marietta. I really never paid attention before I got a BRZ either haha. I think in less than a month I've seen 4-5 so far.

Now I gotta go run the TOL when I get off work. Ya'll making me miss the curves lol

Oh no I was just wondering because I've already faded twice in the triple digits on two separate occasions.

Ditto... I've seen exactly ONE in my local area since I bought mine. It was in Commerce the other day, a white one with black stripes on it. I threw my hand out the window, but theirs was dark tinted, not sure if they saw me. Anyone know who that may be?

Like I said, I'm gonna try to put together a video of the cruise on the 17th, if everyone can film some and get me their clips. @J_kennington, you just gave me an idea for a fun segment in the video: Girls squealing around curves. My girlfriend and her daughter do it all the time, and I'm betting those of you whose wives/girlfriends ride with you squeal at some point too. If we get them all on video clips, I'll cut them all together into a "squeal supercut" segment of the video.

Oh, and if you're female and your boyfriend does it, I DEFINITELY want that as well... LOL
