sickkk. nice meeting all of you guys today. i think if it was drier we woulda been a bit more aggressive on the road. woulda been cool to at least top 3rd gear gear. i think i was in 3rd the entire way down. oh well i guess better safe than sorry cause i didnt wanna get pulled over by that cop. we shoulda taken a picture of that guy like right at the start. hahaha woulda been funny.

I was shifting back and forth between 2nd and 3rd gear up and down. Yeah if it wasn't so damp we probably would have pushed it a little bit. I was doing 45 when I first saw the cop with his lights on. I waved at him as we passed him holding his radar gun

i was shifting between 2nd and 3rd too but there wasnt much action, just a chill cruise like we planned so thats good since it was a bit damp anyway. did you put your front plate back on? hahah when i saw the first cop at the stop light pulling someone over i grabbed my plates and put it on my dash and then when we went up to wait for you guys and we saw him drive by again i was like fk... we're all sitting in a no parking zone, all Mazdas and a vtec, windows down and no license plates on. dammm we're just asking to get tickets. hahah

your name is Tom too? well i go by Tommy.. but yeah no problem, I'll be sure to let you know.
I think I was pretty much the work horse behind this event.. like suggesting the road, where to meet first, the time, etc.. which I hate doing, cuz i dont want to be responsible for anything.

And it was too bad my friend in the Vette couldnt make it.. oh well.

And thanks to the rain.. I made this thread lol
