so i’m driving back to the office and I’m approaching a red light and i hear NICE CAR! so i look over to my right and theres a group of high school boys in a jetta just looking over and grinning. So i smile back and say thank you and one of them goes race you to the next traffic light. the driver starts shaking his head and I’m just laughing. the rest of them are egging him on saying come one! its just one traffic light! ya she has the better car but we have to win! we just have to! so after a few minutes light turns green and i give them a second to take off and then just take off. as i start approaching the next light, i slow down to give them a chance to catch up since they’re half a block behind and they just pull up fists pumping, thumbs up and the biggest smiles on their faces.

I did Pinehurst and Redwood today and coming back up Pinehurst I finally experienced some understeer. I was coming in too hot to a tight right hand turn, and as I turned the wheel to the right, my speed was too high and the left front tire screeched loudly in protest and it felt like that corner was "skidding" forward instead of turning.

It was an interesting sensation which I don't care to repeat very often.

Def scary, i think I get more scared when I get a sudden case of oversteer and my ass kicks out though... Def poop myself a little when that happens and I don't expect it.

Yeah, fortunately I have a 245/40 square setup, so I'm not too worried about the ass end coming out!

Omega Werks won't be able to tint cars until the end of July. -_-

A little Pre-BBQ Kick Off meet up for the Sac/Stockton crew... Had to leave early because I should've been in bed 10 minutes ago but I'm sure everyone else is currently enjoying the company and some boba tea. See you guys on Sunday :P

I have 245 in the rear as well. That's why when it does, and I'm not expecting it, shit happens... Lol
