It isn't a 6speed type drive at all, 2.5 hours to get from Auburn to Redmond? 6speed drive would be 15-20 minutes!
Isn't there a gas station in Auburn that sells 100 octane? I thought some of the guys went and got some before a drive to Bremerton.

We 6speeders could always break away after the PCNA drive and go driving elsewhere too...

Anyway, last weekend I actually drove 500 miles in the pouring rain to break-in my new LSD and Kevlar clutch.

most of us 6spdrs got home awhile ago. Let's just say the driving was less than enthusiastic, the weather was crappy, and today did not really fill my need for a drive at all
And guess who (hint:he's got the baddest uberbanana GT2 in the world) didn't even drive his Pcar? Kunal gets a pass because a) his car is louder than mine and b) he proved that FCars don't melt in the rain

I made it all the way to the end of the drive and agree with silversurfer that the drive wasn't what I'd hoped it would be. I even managed to run over a nice sized rock just before hitting Union Hill Road. Didn't damage anything but man...it hurt!
I was shocked that a certain somebody didn't drive his GT2 too but hey, some dog left him a nice present next to his car.

To put a positive spin on the drive, the road selection was decent. Except for whoever got us lost and decided to take us on a road that probably hasn't been paved in 10 years and has way too many rocks and potholes. So glad the FCar has a full underbody!!
The most surprising part of the trip was that 430's soft roof didn't melt and turn to dust. However, we did learn that BMWs attract a lot of sh*t!

I did warned y'all that it wasnt' going to be anything like our 6speed run. The last time I drove a turbos with these PCAs I never got out of 3rd gear. The M3 was more than enough to take care of business today. Besides different car for different occassions. Anyway I had enough crap for one day.
Our next drive will be long and fast. Promise!!
