Fall Colors

Returning from a recent trip to Ohio.

The fall foliage along MD 68 is quite exceptional right now.

Wheel has been holding up great so far. Working in the medical field, my hands are pretty clean most often. Wash and sanitize my hands every time I leave work before getting back in the car, and I typically do as well prior to going anywhere, if possible.

I do a light cleaning with Sonax alcantara cleaner once every few months and that's it.

Here's a photo from a recent track day.

Saw anther one on the road on Friday! Unfortunately I was driving the work truck so couldn't give a wave without looking weird.
Considering there are only 50 spread across Canada the odds of coming across another are remote. This one was in a smallish city with a dealership that is really into the 86 and has had all of the special editions though so if I was going to see another that place makes sense. Not like my larger city where the dealer hates them and refuses to stock any at all!

Yep. Pretty sure. It was an old guy driving it though so maybe it was two timing me!
I now fully understand why people stare at me when moving though. The play of the light on that colour is mesmerizing.

Any specs (speed, Gs) for when that picture was taken? Any mods?

Wheels and tires

It's cooling off and I decided to change things up for winter. 17X8 Enkei TS-5 in bronze wrapped in 225/45R-17 Continental VikingContact 7s.

Just the stock Hakone wheels. I might switch up which are summer/winter once the factory tires are worn out.
