Son of a bitch... Took car out for a spin tonight and ran into some boost issues. I already sent a pm to zach at delicious tuning, but being the weekend I don't know if it will get resolved or not.

So this may mean I won't be able to go on the cruise Sunday ... We'll see what happens tomorrow.

[jubella2]

That sucks, Faduck.

Are you guys still going with it looking like a rainy mess?

[FaDuck]

It's not looking terrible tomorrow... Looking like light rain in the morning, then just cloudy and cool the rest of the day.

Farther south, where we are heading, isn't showing any rain. But no one has responded on whether or not they are going, so I don't know what's going to happen as of right now.

Might not be as fun due to the weather tomorrow, but I'm still going. Rain or shine, it's still fun and probably easier to go slideways on the tight turns.

@FaDuck your weather report sounds better than I anticipated.

I will plan on meeting @Blu-by-U at the holiday 8:30 am.

[FaDuck]

@Blu-by-U I was really looking forward to going tomorrow, but in light of recent events I won't be able to make it... I really don't feel like driving the Prius.

Yes, I also drive a Prius, that was not a typo.

Happens twice a year. See you come fall.

Many thanks to jubella2 for joining me today. Started out kind of iffy, but for the most part, the roads were dry and the cruise was good. Barring the fact that portions of the route were under water, it was good, short, but good. I hope you enjoyed the twisties as much as I did. Next time (this fall) I'll go faster (if it's dry), it was humid. Hopefully more people will enjoy the experience this fall. Good day driving, thanks again.

Anyone near Alexandria? I've owned my FRS for over a year now and have not really been apart of the community. Thinking its about time I meet up one of these days to go for a cruise.

[FaDuck]

Well my baby is still just sitting in the garage (won't start ) since before the cruise. Been going back and forth with my tuner, and I think the next step will be to syphon out some gas and check the ethanol content. There is a DIY test for that, and it's very simple. Keeping my fingers crossed the test shows a very high % of ethanol, which would cause the car not to start.

Seeing twins out on the road isn't helping, so stop driving your cars!

@Conman Were you on Little Canada Rd this morning? Saw a red frs/brz with shaved emblems and aftermarket headlights. Also had a black insert piece above the rear license plate.

[Mvhs09]

There's a ton of brz/frs in the Maplewood vadnais shoreview area. I see a wrb one everyday on mc menemy.

[Dream20b]

If any of you have met @Heavyfuel, I believe he has my old car. I'm interested in seeing what happened with it.

And I'm wondering if its still running. Last I heard it had some rod knock.
