Me too. I really wanted to go this year, being as it's one of my favourite tracks now, but Hawaii for $120 won :P Next time for sure! I haven't been in some time.

In my news, despite not tracking this year, I just threw come Ground Control plates on my car. I'm incorrigible. On the upside, this means I can upgrade to 245 rubber with -2 degrees now, woohoo!

thanks! Sadly i've never had the opportunity to track.. yet. Wife's the boss *for now* and would be quite funny tracking with my 2 baby seats in the rear! haha.. no i wouldn't bring my kids on the track..yet... =)

I had Ohlin plates on my impreza, AST/Whiteline coil overs, whiteline sways f/r, strut bars, end links, BBS brakes too.. was an awesome track car, that was sold before even 1 track session.. (just got married/bought house back in 09)..

I'd like to get some springs to lower my car 1" no more.. and an exhaust would make me really happy.. just to hear that engine more!

my error funny enough disappeared, pfew.

I'd looking at buying the necessary cables for coding.. anyone?

I'm also starting to plan a CCC retrofit.. yep!

It will be the last event for my E92, it's going to be put up for sale at the end of June. Very sad to see her go , I truly enjoyed that car and that sonorous V8 .

I just ripped my front 30% off, don't want to live with the hassle anymore.

Most cops do carry the tester nowadays.....

Same as my E92: Silverstone.

It is a unique colour to ///M and not as flashy as Austin Yellow, Yas Marina Blue or Sakhir Orange.

And silver is a breeze to maintain. I previously had Carbon Black E46 M3 and my wife has a black S4, both were/are a pain to keep clean.

I will likely go with the black wheels just to have some sort of change .

LOL! Plus black wheels needs less washing! My silver GLI is also so easy to own, it's almost never too dirty to wash

So these were my pads after this weekend!! Fronts were thrown. Rears are kept "in case", but in reality should be thrown.

Indeed, nice seeing you folks! Stay tuned for a lunch meet ....

What pads are those? PFCs?

Maybe a mechanic can fish it for you using a magnetic tool.
