Hope you went through track time to save a few bucks.

I did! I'm going to do every date at BIR this Summer.

Instead of going on a vacation this Fall I decided to take those Mondays off and stay at a hotel in Brainerd one night per month. Go to a bar & grille the night before and kick back. It'll be good.

That would be nice.

I will be going to the long course this weekend with the BMW club. They will be having run groups instead of open track. There weren't many opportunities to run the long track last year and the price isn't too bad though.

I will probably try to go to the tracktime MAM event this year. I went for a group day last year and that is a fun track as well. Nothing you could really hit if you were too aggressive either.

Ripped that rubber strip on the bottom of the Aero front lip off the car for good this morning--it was hanging down again after scraping on the way out of BDP's parking lot last night. I guess the right thing to do would have been to back out of there.

I need to consider whether I want to drop the car any farther than it is. That rubber piece is expendable but cracking lips every two months (due to poor judgment) would get expensive. I need to start being paranoid about clearance...

Dropped my car off at DB this afternoon for the tune. I am having fun with the video camera. Shot a quick video of the engine bay and exhaust note today. Either I've gotten use to the exhaust or it's actually quieter now than when I first picked it up...not sure which.

Welcome to cars.

I've been approaching driveways at angles greater than 45 degrees for over a decade now.

I think you meant 'welcome to sports cars'. Yeah, no kidding. I did exit at what I thought was a steep angle...one corner toward the other but in the end I just shouldn't have gone in there to begin with. I just hate parking my cars on the street.

I was checking the GPS location of my car this morning and it looks like it's out on a road test. That'd be good news.
