  1. Sort of a ghost town at C&C this morning. Just posting this one due to the excellent parking job of the driving instructor that was there to sell us $50k memberships to the new private race track being built south of DC. He was not backing into the space. This is how he decided to park his Nismo Z I call this one the Brent car because every time I see it pull up I expect to see Brent get out of it for some reason. . Stretch Car
  2. Damn, missed this. Happy Birthday gentlemen.
  3. I like it CJ. I don't think I ever bothered posting any of my Ireland Pics. The RX-1 is an excellent travel camera. Tempted to pick up the new version ASAP.
  4. There is certainly a theme of fried globs of unrecognizable animal in your pictures Colin.
  5. Not a great turnout for the local C&C today.
  6. Yeah I was just telling Dan that I really do not have any reason to have two slow, but sometimes fun cars. I should dump the S4 and get something actually fast. Some late night shots of the work.
  7. After the drive home I can say that the XT is finally where it should be as the sportier version go the Forester. Swift Springs ride smoother on regular road than the stock springs and the dual stage springs really kick in on the curves. Did the corkscrew exit twice on the way home. Once the tires are replaced with something non-awful this thing will be a really fun drive that can also haul all my stuff.
  8. Ah, you have one of those crazy Cherokees that fly.
  9. Finally starting to get the Forester XT (STI) where I want it. STI Swift Springs, STI Steering Wheel and Nameless Performance exhaust. Drives soooooo much better now.
  10. I was wondering about you when a co-worker pointed out that nerd money was around $300 non-nerd dollars.
  11. The gist I got from the story is that the problems run to cars not equipped with Diesel engines. The auto industry self reports a lot of this stuff and I am thinking VW might have been presenting false numbers on a lot of cars to get maximum performance.
  12. Looks like VWs problems are deepening. http://money.cnn.com/2015/11/03/news/volkswagen-scandal-carbon-dioxide-fuel-consumption/index.html Wonder if that explains why I average 10 MPG in the city.
  13. Tomato, egg and cheese waffle sandwich from Wicked Waffles. Colin/Dusty they have a shredded Peking duck, crispy skin hoisin and plum sauce sandwich as well.
  14. Looks like my number one pick is out for the rest of the season, after missing the first 3 games on suspension. Not a lot of value there.
  15. Not even sure why I bothered carrying my camera around. Lots of great cars out but I never bothered documenting them.
  16. Yeah, I might end up going with a license plate delete plate up front and put the plate on the Rho Plate tow hook holder but right now everything is straight as there is enough slop in the plate to make everything straight. Met up with Dan at Katie's but did not take a lot of pictures this morning.
  17. Put in some parts orders today for some Subaru upgrades: 2015 STI Steering Rack - Going from the school bus-like 17-1 to the ultra tight 13-1 on the new STI. Swift Springs - modest 1.5 inch drop still leaving about 7 inches of clearance JDM STI interior pieces (gauge pods, shifter, shift boot, etc. with the red stitching to match the STI steering wheel. Now I need to select some wheels and tires and an exhaust option between the Nameless, Invidia and Mann Engineering Cat backs. This thing is going to at least look sporty and drive okay hauling my kayak around.
  18. Weren't you buying a Miata/911 or something?
  19. Yeah I noticed that when I posted it. Went and picked up the tags shortly thereafter and some stupidly overpriced Subaru LP holders. Fucktards at the dealership drilled out the front mounting points crooked, I am thinking about burning down the dealership now. Got to use the horn twice on the way back. People in this area are aching to crash into each other. And of course it happened at the entrance to the fucking H Mart as people decide to cut across three lanes to get their vegetables or whatever that place sells. The horn stopped the first lady in her tracks and she just stayed there until I was well past, then the horn was needed 200 yards later as people here are too stupid to read signs that the left lane is entrance to Express Lanes only and always just swerve over at the last second without checking if someone is there.
  20. Put on the STi rear sway bar with Kartboy end links. I cannot believe how sloppy the stock end links are, I think they might be a big cause of the poor handling and lack of straight-line stability. Also threw on some Hella Sharptones, not sure why I bothered, but I know people will now notice if I am angry at them.
  21. Terrible season for me so far.... but all is right with the world again.
  22. One for Dan, the Beetle Fanatic. This thing was a BEAST. Built 509 with a Procharger. Rattled all the windows. Awesome Skyline Another for my list of ugliest M cars?
  23. Happy Birthday
  24. Happy Birthday Peter.
  25. I have to say, I LOVE how ESPN told Brent he won last night and then ripped that away from him and gave him a tie. Season high point for me.
