Awesome Science

Autocross last Sunday shows how my phenomenal passing speed sent the orangeness of the obstacle cones into another dimension. No p-shopping here, this actually is proof of theory!

Yes it's not a huge difference, but there is a definite difference. It really helps in getting through the "torque dip" quickly. I also installed a K&N drop in filter, another small but worthwhile improvement in MPG and performance.

Some of the Subaru guys at Cars and Coffee encouraged me to stop by the MNSubaru Tuesday get together at Lake Calhoun so I'm going to try and head over there tonight.

I'd be on board for a meeting up for dinner and a drive some weeknight. Anyone else interested? Any suggestions for a location?

We need to head to Gasthof's. I'm down with meeting there this Thursday at 8PM. It looks like there will be a possibility for storms, but I really like driving my car in the rain.
