Yeah, I've been driving this thing for a couple of months hard out now with no trouble (knock on wood). I've been to Canmore a couple of times aready. It's just paranoia, that's all I reckon! haha,

I do have to take one of my mates to Edmonton anyway and we were going to spend the weekend there. It's his first time to Canada so that was on our list. I do have AMA but meh, whatever. I'm not fussed!

240hp is sad......


After driving around in my car for the past week, I'm pretty confident in it now, and am sure I could drive to Edmonton. It's just really hard for me to commit to that much time....

240? pft i'd be happy to see 225 at the wheels.

This is why i'm selling the s2000 lol 7g's for a turbo kit.. or sell it and get something much more powerful.

I learned on Monday and Tuesday that it's not always about the amount of horsepower you have but how you carry your speed into/through the corners and when to "roll on" the gas when exiting. Thats what will make you fast on the track, honestly I think that's whats the S is about!

Anyways, can someone just pick a date and location already!

So is this thing still in the works?

I am now confident that my car can make the drive. I drove it to Edmonton with no issues hitting the speed limit with no real racing.

I also just took my car through the mountains for a 4 hour road trip with two c63s, an IS-F and an M coupe and my car was more than capable of keeping up with them and passing them.

My fears of long trips are slowly being lifted so yeah, if it's in Edmonton, I have no qualms but I'm keen to meet up with my fellow S brethren!!
