Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
Well, I just found out that this weekend is the flood run. Watch out for motorcyles, there are always some idiots out there. And it doesn't matter how loud your exhaust is, you still probably won't hear it over the bikes. So we should be a small group of cars in a sea of motorcyles...

Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
Ok, maybe just retape my hanging trim and go. Whatever, I'll try to make it.
Hmmm, other things I'd love to fix before showing my car to a scrutinising public:
Nasty mess in car.
sagging head liner.
Finish ugly rear enclosure.
Alignment for squirrely tires.
Yup, I better just resign myself to showing my car off in it's entirely imperfect glory.

LOL! That's what I like to hear.  Should be fun. On the other side of the hill is a road that'll take us back over to Hwy 61 if you want but I have noooo problem turning around and tackling the curves again. Although I'm sure the s2000 will leave me in the dust. A RX8 cooked me through those turms... but maybe (definately) I'm just pussy.
There is a lookout on top of Garvin Heights (probably a mile from the Green Mill) if you want to check that out. On a good clear day you can see quite a ways.
Twack, at least stop on over to the Green Mill so I can meet a local.

Plus, worked out good, i was too scared to run in the twisties and get blown away by the sex-pipe!!!

Now the true DSM-owner in your shines through! I've been waiting for this post; I figured it would either come today or tomorrow morning.

Re: DSMStyle cruise, Saturday Sept. 16th!!!
The weather is sounding decent for this event actually! They are saying possible AM thunderstorms giving way to partly cloudy skies in the afternoon! Sounds good to me though, at worst the first hour or so might be in the wet, but by the time we get to the really nice roads we'll be in the clear.

Thats fine, you gotta do what you gotta do. It just gets frustrating when you put a lot of time and effort into setting up an event and people back out at the last minute when they've had the past month to make arrangements around it.

Yeah, we still have a lot of people signed up, the weather is looking better, and my suspension needs a good exercise!
