Keep in mind that I have to get day insurance and I only drive the car to autocross / track... Next time I have to be pretty sure that the plan is confirmed before paying my $33.

Well I guess today wasn't so bad... I kinda used my permit, took my anger out on my muffler, and ripped it apart... literally:

It's the L pipe that we were cutting... the muffler is still intact and a few bolts away from being back on if I start daily driving it. The mid pipe ends right under the gas tank and the L pipe will hopefully help keep the heat away; it was sticking out too much so we had to cut it. It's the only legal exhaust mod that I can do in my class and $15 for 40 lbs off is worth it.

Oh no dude that's not how I meant it... but thanks for the offer. Just have to be better organized in the future. Check the weather the day before, make sure there are no Canucks games, etc.

The location really had to do with the fact that we wanted a scenic drive and whether going north or south to find a nice drive it won't be in Burnaby.

I think we should start a facebook group to make things better organized... have event invitations sent out where people can respond yes / no / maybe so that they can be canceled in time. I don't have anyone's facebook account but if you PM it to me I'll have a group created and we can go from there.

Its all good Ben! Don't worry about it! But yeah being more organized would be a lot better and I think like you said having a facebook group would be a good idea more people could respond to it quicker!

Yeah Ben. Most likely is me. Hopefully, I did not cut anyone off. FYI- I am in for next autoX on May 29.

Perhaps more 8's can join up. It's fun!

No Vincent, you are an excellent driver... I just live very close to that area and see you all the time... I guess you wouldn't be able to tell since I'm mostly driving my other car.
