I have 2 pit mixes, one one of which is scared of his own shadow and on Prozac. Always a good time at the pharmacy to get a refill, I get the strangest looks giving 3 pills a day to a 7 year old.
In other news, does anyone here play iRacing? I'm pretty horrible with just visuals and not all the sensations you get on a real track, but its still fun.

Whoops, typo... meant 76.6. The white Evo and a Black Subaru were the ones faster than me. I think they both got down to the 74's. Joe in that white Evo was killing it. That Evora is usually top driver in street tire class too, it's a really nice car.
Good to see Drew (onecleans2000) back out there today... wonder how he fared in the rain...
485 wasn't awful, but it was definitely a sub-50 mph ride home for me. My rear tires are pretty low. I saw a nice Yukon or something similar turned backwards up against the median fence thing all screwed up. People just don't know how to slow the hell down or drive to the conditions. People just think, "Ahhhh I'm in a big SUV with 4WD, I'll be fine going 75... oh no I'm hydroplaning! I'll turn my steering wheel to full lock and slam on the brakes."

Was gonna ride out, but figured the rain scared allot of people away.
Hello to everyone else, if any one ever need parts for a good price, I am local in Charlotte.

Hello, everyone.
New to the board/s2k in general
Bought an '01 Silverstone on July 10th - sold my previous car ('06 GTO) to get her.
Been in Charlotte for most of the last 10 years (an 07 UNC Charlotte grad). Live in north Charlotte, near Northlake Mall. I've probably seen a few of you on the road - I always throw a wave when I see a fellow S2000. On that note, there is a yellow CR that lives one street over in my neighborhood (off of Mt Holly-Huntersville), anyone's?
Have done one autox event (in the GTO) but I hit up Cars & Coffee when I can, I plan on going out there this Saturday. Anyone else going to be there, and what time do you all usually arrive?

Hey man! Yeah the yellow CR is Mike, he's a regular autox'er (actually he's the co-chair of CCR) but I don't think he's on the forum. You should come autox with us some time! There is another thread about the Charlotte C&C meet this weekend. If I go I usually don't show up till 9 or so. I'm a late riser though.
