I definitely saw a few cars with them on the first day. Must've been off after that.

sold your S for a luxo-sedan.
I like to think of it as a SPORT-lux sedan. The 306 hp has to count for something.

Last WTD, I shot video of the roll out of Fontant, I could have missed one or possibly a late departure...

It counts for LESS of a power/weight ratio than an S2000.

Even an AP2.

Hell, my SUV has over 300HP, doesn't make it sporty-ANYTHING.

Well enough off topic banter....

The simple point of this thread was to see if anyone was planning on taping up their car on the drive to the dragon or not.

Was thinking about it.
Might have to do the Colgan... although mine has a cutout for the license plate... which isn't on the front of the car anymore.....
