Default IM BACK....

Hey everyone, been gone for awhile soakin up the rays and sittin by a pool all summer will keep one from the computer. Anyways, ive hit some low times with the S2K. There was that huge rainstorm that totally obliterated west county, and when I drove away from my girlfriend's house, i was getting onto 270 south from manchester when some loser cuts me off, and i proceeded to downshift, but i took the turn too fast and you guessed it, the back flies out. I tried to correct myself and almost succeded, it looked pretty cool actualy, i was pseudo drifting, but the "fun" ended and the front end kissed a guard rail. Thank my lucky stars that the damage is minimal. had to have the bumper repainted, no body damage. so im safe with that. 415 bucks to have it done.

Anyways, i wanna get back in the loop with the crew here, so here i am!

Welcome Back sachi. Wondered where you got off to.

Sorry to hear about your S. Hope she's all fixed up now and running normal. You were much more fortune that rehile as he drifted into the rail and totaled his S (sorry Ron to bring back the pain) It was a bad day!

Still quite a few activities left for the remainder of the year. Detail day next month, Run down to Table Rock in October, and I'm sure some impromptu events as well. Check out our Event Calendar

You have a lot of catch-up to do, so get reading!
