Agreed, really glad I got to meet everyone! We'll have to meet up again, hopefully before the next year's meet. And hopefully AFTER I get my car a little more...not stock.

No idea what you are talking about...

Once I raise the car a bit more get the camber right and throw some good rubber on there I'll be golden. That first leg was complete **** with my coilovers almost maxed out, I forgot I had them at 14 all around :/.

Turbo comes first though...

Side note: Next year I'm gonna splurge on some RE11's .

Oh, and you know how they say kill two birds with one stone? Well, it was more along the lines of kill two birds with one RX-8. First one turned into an explosion of feathers.
