I knew it was going to happen...

I bought the CX-5 and now I get a slightly different position within the company that gives me a company car for travel.

Welcome to one of the only Garage Queen CX-5s.....


.........fark me.

Well of course.

Can you forego the company car and use the money toeards the CX5 payment/gas/insurance/maintenance?

What are they giving you for a car?

Good Morning!!

Ticket link for LRP Memorial Day Weekend festivities is up!! I started a new thread in your NEMOC forum with all the info. Any questions, please ask! We look forward to seeing everyone there!

Parade laps are pending receiving the final schedule from PWC, but we are a top priority, so I believe they will make it happen.

Any updates, I will keep you posted!

Thanks Lauri.

Ordered a new stock clutch yesterday, Exedy. Was contemplating the stage one but drove one last year and found the stiffness for me to be a concern for DD.

Need to order the 8.4lb flywheel from Flyin Miata as well.

I've been getting back into online racing again in Gran Turismo 6 (waiting for the new version of the game to come out soon). Below was the first race in a GTPlanet series for V8 Supercars. Normally I stick with pure spec racing but this series spawned from the same group of drivers. Tuning is allowed but each eligible vehicle has slightly different weight and HP restrictions to make them competitive. That means cars have strengths and weaknesses at different parts of the track. I'm not a great tuner but I was able to spend a few hours to tame the Ford Mustang GT500 enough to run around Bathurst for the season opener. I had good power on the uphill and decent bite coming back down, but I lacked straight line speed when I wasn't in the draft. I qualified 10th in a pack of 13 but after the first lap was running 7th. 25 minutes into the 50 minute race I managed to catch the 3 way battle for 4th place. Only problem, I was so caught up in the action I forgot to check the gas gauge and I ran empty before I could hit the pits. This was a white knuckle race for sure. After running out of gas I dropped to 13th but managed to crawl back to a 10th place finish at the end. Here's some of that battle for 4th before I ran out...

Pretty cool Chris, did I see you tap the wall near the beginning?

Ordered the flywheel today. Won't get any of it installed till next month when I get home.
