I have to do a coolant flush in the girlfriend's car first thing in the morning, but I should be able to get that done by 10am, which would give me plenty of time to get out there and meet you guys.

Sounds good to me. Yes, I did Squirrel Spur, it's a good road. We went up the mountains by a different road which was extremely tight and quite good, but I don't know which one it was (can you tell I wasn't the one in charge of the drive?) Might have been Piper's Gap? Something like that?

See you all around 12:30.

Hehe....my passenger seat will probably be filled. The girlfriend wouldn't accept the fact that the car would handle better with reduced weight

I got it back in August. You should see it right now, it's impressively covered in mud. The looks people were giving me yesterday when I was driving it...my passenger said that one older guy looked at me as if I had killed his puppy. Then I got out of the car and he was apparently even more horrified (we were on the way back from the ren fair and were all dressed up for the occasion!).

Gotta go give it a good clean before I head out...

Made it home a little bit ago. I feel really smart....that whole time we were running squirrel spur, I didn't realize we were in Virginia.

I think I'm going to try heading back up there this saturday after I get the new tires mounted. That was a beautiful road, and you guys showed me I have a lot to work on

Thanks for letting me tag along!

fun trip! I have a few pictures on facebook if you have facebook send me your name or just friend request me: Aaron Elsner

I have some video but I have to study tonight so I'm not sure if I'll get them edited and online tonight.

Great time! Hope everyone made it back with no problems.

I was thinking about heading up there next Sunday possibly depending on how "trick or treating" goes the night before

God I wish I didn't sell my Stage II exhaust! Stage I is so.... quiet, its strange

Good to see an NC gathering. I was at RA this weekend, two of the four Lotus there found walls , not too badly though.
Docjay, how was your last track outing? Any of you want to go to CMP Dec 5-6?
