You finally got your S2000 back on the road? Thats good because I dont like it when I cant keep up with a Miata. (or a Civic, LOL , why I quit driving behind Phil. )
LOL. Still lots of work to do but yes I should be in the S2000.

I gave up trying to keep up with Phill. That Civic was an integral part of him. Now let's see if the Accord Sport is the same way. (I'll see Phill at Spring Fling).

Nooooo! Drive them down to gran Turismo man! They do high speed on car balancing. It's priceless for the feel. Anyway can I be added on the stinker/tailgunner list for either group if you don't have a tail?

+1
or whatever I'm supposed to say here to be added. (Yes I know the group is full, it always works out tho doesn't it? We could make it 7cars x3 groups)

A big thanks to our Canadian friends (who never take their time here for granted) for taking us on some amazing roads yesterday. Let's do it again next year.

That was a crazy drive. Darcy, as always found some epic roads. So much so that I forgive you for the gravel

Emil came in late to the rollout so he wouldn't have to share that magic beer....what a slacker! Come earlier next time!

Helio, good call on the roads....this was my most satisfying trip to the Dragon yet :-p. Dhruv, thanks for keeping me posted and thanks to the Canadians for letting us share in on the fun!
