Haha yeah, i know what you mean, but I'd like to find a place where I don't have to check my rear view every 5 seconds to make sure there are no blue/red lights behind me.

Sometimes ya just gotta go exploring. Sometimes you need to return or watch an area so you know what type of traffic/movement/use a certain area gets. You can make a better educated guess at what you might get away with.
Sometimes ya gotta hit, run/hide and watch.
Look for cameras etc. Little street smarts helps a little too

Explore. Mash. GTFO. Rinse & Repeat...

Been a long time since I've done that sort of thing with a group but two way radios and a plan works wonders too.

Just picked mine up yesterday!

SWP BRZ-L 6-speed from Evanston Subaru. Omar and Mike were amazing people to deal with. Would highly recommend them if anyone on here is still hunting for a BRZ in the future.

It'll be my DD for sure, though modding has already begun. :happy0180:

I ordered some Stance Super Sport Coilovers and a pulley kit! Still deciding on exhaust (Greddy SP Elite, TF Titanium or Supersprint - opinions welcome!) and wheels, but those will come soon enough.
