Damn! You weren't kidding.. that was a fast course! Makes you realize how large Marina is, and how many different layouts you could do. The only events I've run (SFR SCCA) have been a lot slower/tighter.

This weekend is 2 days of AAS down in Marina and they usually build big courses. I can't stand that tight shit, I'm not even interested. I'll be there both days.

Car will be in the AutoBody shop for two days. It's like nightmare thinking not driving the car but the car will be reborn. Thanks @clayrush for mentioning the shop. Service is top notch even with just the estimation and explanation of what will happen. They will replace the whole front bumper of the car. (Hopefully, the color matching will be a no problem. Crossing my fingers!) Do you guys think I could ask them to paint my emblems while the car is in there?

That would look clean, have them do them black.

I just found this article about the top 50 football stadiums to see before you die and the school I went to made the list!

I used to LOVE going to games there! We only lost twice at home the whole 6 years I was in school.

Haha thanks!

Time to move on to another project.
Pm me if interested.

How much will I get from my car if I sell it? So I can pick up your car man? LOL I will be surely jelly of the person that will buy it!

Car is in shop. Can't wait tomorrow! Driving a Nissan Sentra as rental! good thing about it is still a japanese car.

Shop was kind to do something about my front emblem, asked to paint it flat black, but not sure if they will do also the back. Mentioned that they will probably replace it with a new one cuz they ask where I got it so they might order new ones for me. (isn't that awesome or what?) Crossing my fingers!

It's funny you say that, because generally cheap German cars are much nicer than cheap Japanese cars.

just got the idea of it cuz well that's their only car available when I dropped off my car. I was about to ask them to bring me in a different rental branch but it would just be a hustle.

Was funny that the guy mention "my bad it won't be as luxury as your car!" but in my mind, (how much do you think is this car? 50K?.
