And you are thinking about it?!?! We are all staying at MGM. That is where most FT86Club people I've seen are staying.

On another note, I just finished reading through all 32 pages of a "Who sold their Civic Si for an FRS?BRZ" thread on a honda forum and WOW, those people are just as retarded as we are. Besides firmly believing that the Si is the greatest car ever made and will single handedly demolish the FRS/BRZ in every way possible, the forum is just as full of people that disagree with each other and decide to use personal attacks instead of arguing the topic.

On the up-side, all the guys that switched from the civic to an FRS/BRZ were super happy about it (except one guy that had back problems aggravated by the FRS, which I don't count as a negative against the car). It was interesting to see a different groups opinions and thoughts on switching to a totally different car. There are also a lot of misconceptions about the cars design, origin, and the differences between the twins.
Lol. Sounds like a forum I know... Link?

Not sure I'd be able to find it again. I didn't bookmark it, I just randomly found myself there after some mid day googling.

On another note, I'll be back up at LM today, having Eric finish my vinyl wrap. If anyone wants to swing by, kill some time while I'm car-less, and see Eric's work (who hasn't already), feel free to drop by. I'll be getting there around 9am, and It'll take somewhere in the neighborhood of 4-5 hours to finish. I'll be going to Pavillions after a carwash once Eric is done. If someone with a nice camera and 'better than me' photography skills (Yruyur, @nelsmar, jeffsides) isn't busy, I know Eric would like some higher quality pics of his work once he's done, and I know I'd like something better than a bunch of cell phone pictures for my Forge project.

Also, I'm trying to get an idea of how many people would be willing to switch to/buy an ECU tune from Goodspeed Performance Lab out of Scottsdale? They aren't writing their own tunes yet, but I'm trying to convince them to start. The more people I get on board, the stronger the argument gets. I know there were one or two people who expressed interest when it was brought up at the mothers day BBQ, but I'd like to get a solid list of names.

I'd be interested but I know Zorro just posted up that he's looking for about 3-4 peeps for a tune which will be 300$...... Maybe that's someone you can talk to instead, he's editing with brzedit
