IDK, should we keep them small this year and just go on longer driver with less cars?

i personally think the bigger drives are a waste of time. the main problems i see are:
1. not everyone is even near the same driving level. even if they are, some are more conservative out there than others...this causes waiting
2. waiting for people w/o walkie talkies sucks.
3. people bail in the middle, and we still wait for them
4. people bail in the middle, and it screws up the rhythm.. ...almost as much as me running into things.
5. john has never disappeared during a small drive. however, he cost us about an hour on a big one. so to minimize losing john, we should keep our drives small

oh, and max, how could any of us forget about you man?

....we're not going to ever let that one go, are we

Big drives are fun, but takes a lot of work. We should still have a few. I need a chance to redeem myself.

congrats dude!! shoot, i hope you're liking the new place i'll roll by sometime with some beer and GT5 prologue.

i'm down for a good scene or two. fun driving will be my main focus. i dont want to start the fun too far from davis though (like..i wanna minimize driving on the freeway and stuff)

will do. although, it would be best to check this thread again around march. everybody is welcome except for asshats and people who drive up on other people bumpers. we always like to keep a good distance between cars.

see you soon



on another note, i'm wondering if you guys (dustin & paul) remember greg. he's the white dude with the black bugeye that came out once to the drives. well him and his housemate(s) wanted to come by sometime. his housemates both own evos and are into auto-x. that makes like...a bunch of us already

1. dustin
2. paul
3. john
4. max
5. ryan
6. me
...maybes...
7. greg
8. housemate1
9. possibly housemate 2

Hey paul (and everyone else),

I just ordered a new perrin dual-tube catback exhaust. It's basically one exhaust with two 2.25" tubes for a total inner diameter of 3.2 inches. It opens up to a single 4-inch tip. Let me know if you want to try it out on your car. Maybe it'll make things interesting, since nobody's ever posted data about it. Talk to mike and see if he's interested in trying a tune on it. It should be here soon

I'm probably not gonna run it until i get an accessport and find me a nice downpipe.
