Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
I had a great time, the car made it in one piece with nothing wrong in the end. Good to put some faces to names. How was the drive back up? anything interesting happen?

Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
We all kind of went our seperate ways, nothing exciting happened at all. Thanks to YingYang for letting me drive his car back, that was fun.

Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
Holy hell, just woke up from a nap. Yea it was lots of fun. Glad to finally meet some of you guys in person! Gas mileage was pretty damn good for the dsm. I did some quick math in my head, was something like 23-24.

Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
Great event! It was nice to meet everyone and it was a great route to cruise except for the damn bikers and cops. No rain until we got back to St Cloud.
I got about 26MPG. I was running too lean on hard acceleration so I'll have to work on that. 16+PSI no boost controller yet or fuel system mods. I was for sure the slower one of the pack.
Did anyone get pics of all the cars before we split up?
Next spring we should definetely do another cruise. Maybe plan some group car picture shots or something.

Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
Well, rf was rained out, and with the scattered showers..meh. I didn't feel like driving the car at all much today, so we went on an evo cruise! 6 evos, down to stillwater, and back up..twisty roads, beautiful scenery (changing trees) etc. I recommend that stillwater be placed on the next tour, and we stop to take some quality pics there, by the lakefront. I may be down to cruise, before winter comes up. I don't think sept. 30th should be the last event.

I'd be up for another cruise, but proably won't have time until October 14th. The leaves up north are already starting to change so I'd imagine by then the leaves will be well past their peak down south. Eitherway, I'm always ready for a good drive. Lets see what other members say and if their is interest we could organize a route. Stillwater/Taylor's Falls area would be great too (as Swifty mentioned).

Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
Im in, maybe not as far though. Stillwater/Taylors falls area would be fun. If we can get a few people to commit then it would be fun to do it again.
I know the cannon falls area near welch village has some super curvy roads also.

We didn't, we left at 10:10. In my post I did mention 10:00 AM sharp so we actually left about 10 minutes late. This is why I told everyone to get there by 9:45.

Leave early? Fuck you. We left 10 minutes late, then waited a 20-30 minutes at a gas station for you where you promptly had to fill up for gas, then waste another 10 minutes in the McDonalds drive through. We didnt get underway until a quarter after 11.
