I'd have been half off the road trying to pass on this road.

Put a 20" 275/55/20 wheel in the boot of the BRZ today...well, hardly fit sticking out (got a flat and took to the shop to get replaced). That is the max that will 'fit' to travel short distance. 😁

My kids chased Pokemons or whatever the fuck they were chasing playing Pokemon Go while I drove them around. I just liked driving the 86 and spending some time with them. What scares me shitless is that some fuckwits are out there driving and playing that game at the same time... while I am riding my bike... I don't play but I saw enough of it this weekend to know that I'm scared- very scared.

Played with removing the rubber hood seals- doesn't do jack to lower IAT or oil temps.

I detailed my car (I do this WAY too often) and found that Garage One products kick ass.

The car is a little less harsh over bumps now that I dropped front tire pressures to 35 psi. It's kind of surprising how a little air pressure makes a big difference.

Drove my car down to the Tail of the Dragon from Chicago ovee the weekend. Beat solo road trip ever!! Did 7 runs. Downhill was intense!Also did a 5 hr drive looping the entire mtn.
The dragon is something I encourage every gt86 owner to do this. Our car is perfect for this course.

What did you have them at before? The recommended tire pressure on stock wheels and stock Michelin tires is 35 psi.
