Parked my car in a residential area in Surrey today. Got back and found a note saying "This is not a parking spot asshole". and a Parking ticket: alleged infraction: Park in front of or within 3M on either side of a driveway, walkway or cycle path... What is up with that..

There were so many other people parking beside driveways all over that block I was parked at, and the only person that got a ticket was me. Even my coworker was like wtf?? ( he parked in frnt of me).

Flashy car, not always a good thing. Especially right after getting it opticoated, even more flashier.

It's Surrey... Better check if there's any key marks around the vehicle...

why they no use real leather ((((((((

This car gets too much attention IMO. I don't like seeing cops pull U-turns just so they can tail me.

I only got tailed once, and I'm an N and that cop was behind me a good 5min.. and I didn't have my N at all. He never pulled me over. But aside from that, cops don't really bother me much. Maybe because it just looks like I'm driving my bfs car? Cops are harder on men unfortunately.

I'm not a police bait yet either...maybe it's because I usually drive this car to and from work...hence usually with my uniform on...plus a Canadian "Support Our Troops" decal on my rear end...

Then again, I don't drive that aggressively fast either...

That "Support Our Troops" decal really helps. My friend is in the army and well, that's that. All he needs is his Canadian Troops ID =/
I mean apparently 200horse is not considered fast for a lot of people, so I don't see the point of going aggressively fast. Except for when people try to get in front of me for no good reason.. I get really mad about that. I must admit I'm so stupid, one time I did that and I was going uphill... the honda ridgeline beat me LOL Well that's what I get for trying to NOT let an obviously more torque-y car get ahead of me uphill.... =S

Don't embarass yourself any more with shock plots...
Not exactly , you will see the shock dyno here : http://www.typeoneracing.com/blog/?p=543

I guess ppl online would love to know the adjustment ranges ! I guess you don't which is ok..... I am a sales and love lapping so maybe we should go together sometimes and you can share your tuning knowledge or maybe teach me a little bit

Anyways, the car is going to hit the track at Ridge Motorsports park this weekend so I will be getting track data and doing some hot laps. Last month

I did 2:04 flat with my OLD ITR with brakes and suspension and I can do something close with my BRZ !

Regards,
Ben
