A few things

1. I am good to go Saturday night at Calabogie. Super excited to hear the new header.
2. What are we doing Friday night?
3. Kevin, do you still have my gift certificates?
4. looking at my lights tonight, I am assuming the part with the hex nut is how I adjust the headlights up and down?

Funny you say that.
it is something I am pretty interested in doing, but I am kind of intimidated by the whole scene.
I should get off my ass and just start going to spectate and meet people, but you know... beer to drink yada yada yada

So I have been quiet for a bit but not because of certificate hoarding. I'm away on vacation for another week. Just finished a wedding double header on the weekend.


Also, has anyone tried the JDM exhaust tips? Thinking of changing them.

Sorry Kenny. Not running just yet. Still have some more bits and pieces to get before I take the plunge.

2 weddings Kevin. Jesus!!! Is that legal?

1. You ready to put your life in my hands at the wheel on Saturday?

New
5. What about Hawkesbury Sunday?

I'll have to miss Sat night at CMP. As a semi-substitute I've signed up for autox on Sunday.

Hey guys! I'm new to the forums, I'm 22 and I am from Ottawa. I've been reading this thread for a while and decided to come say hi!

I do not own one of the twins yet because I can't afford to do it right now with going back to school and all that fun stuff but I am hooked on Autocross now after I've been there twice with a friend who let me use his car to run. (1990 Mazda Miata) I am going to this Sunday's Autocross with my car (2011 Hyundai Accent 2Dr Hatchback with a slushbox), It's all I've got so I'll see how well that goes!

Hopefully I'll see some of you out there! I've seen 3 of the twins the last 2 times I was out there but I didn't come by to say hi. I was originally looking into a NA Miata but I am too tall, my head goes over the roll bar by about 2 inches with a helmet on. So I did some more research and I think I am decided on an FRS! Just have to try to save as much as I can while in school to afford one when I'm done! Fingers crossed I'm not too tall with a helmet for the FRS.

Welcome to the forums.

The twins might not be tall enough for you either. I am 6-2, all torso, and I have to swap seats every time I want to wear a helmet in the car. The headroom is great, but not great enough, sadly.
