Was about to wash both cars tomorrow, but then I saw that there's potential rain coming. Really don't want to waste my efforts and water (especially since water in my area just shot up close to 18% in cost).

Thinking about driving out to Sac sometime in the summer, since I'll hopefully be good with driving my BRZ by then. I really want to catch a River Cats game or two.

How's the drive up there? I've never done it myself before.

Are you able to drive in a straight line? Then you'll be ok

Only half joking, but if you are coming from the bay, I'm guessing you are either gonna go via 880/680-80 or 580-205-5, both of which are very straight 4-lane freeway. Only thing I would watch for is rush hour, lots of commuters coming from the central valley.

Yeah, figured something like that.

Still more than a few months out. Would probably be August or so.

Assuming you'll end up going on 80-west...so you'll end up in traffic in Fairfield near the mall, then again in Vacaville near the outlets, and then again in Davis where the freeway stupidly goes from 3 lanes (iirc) to like 6, and in half a mile, goes down to 2 lanes. Oh, and there are pot holes you'll have to avoid.

Washed the FR-S and put on the better shoes (not sure how much my toe spec up front was affected since I had to add more negative camber to clear the tires).
