My trip to Skyline VA

deletedelete · 10-22-2009, 09:07 AM

Took the car and lady down to Skyline for the day. Car handled beautifully around the turns on rt 211. Even with the stock xi suspension I felt extremely confident and the cars behind me probably thought I was nuts, since they slowed down to 15 and Id speed up to 45 for the turns! Enjoy!

Real nice. All the trees were turning colors but no leaves on the ground yet. Millions of lady bugs though. Literally, millions!

I can imagine what your bumper looks like, thanks! Right before a detail

Really...those ladybugs were like out of a horror movie. I couldnt walk or open my mouth lol. Millions....Im still having nightmares of them flying right over my nonprotected alcantara trim.

Im probably going to go in the next few weeks. Lets hope the leaves stay on the trees for a while.

Id say that the leaves will definately be there for a bit longer. No leaves were falling at all, it was still plenty hot with plenty of bugs. We even found another lady bug today at my detail!

2 stink bugs and about 15 lady bugs so far inside the car.

I think i saw your car about a month back near towson on york road? I was in an aw mtech e90, turned onto perring pkwy, but you went straight. to say the least, you've got a nice car!
