Here is a look at a brand new road course Ridge Motor Sports Park. Looks like a track day there would be a hoot. Can't wait for the chance to give that layout a go, about a 4 hr drive away.

Looks like you can really stretch it out on that road course and that down hill corkscrew will be a blast. Now I'll have to really work on scratching up the $$$ for the Pfadt coilovers and the DBA rotors.

Theres a couple of places around that track you can get going fast enough the trees will look like a picket fence... That is such a beautiful part of the country... NW U.S. and South West Canada...

Track looks awsome! Got to try that one out for sure. It looks to be about 4 hrs. from the border.

The BMR Derlin Race diff bushings arrived today, they are the next level of hardness to whats currentlly in Pumpkin's diff. Minor piece of the diff puzzle, but a piece none the less.

Okay... maybe I embellished a little.
But it was a pleasure meeting you and the rest of the Canadian contingent,
and we hope to see you again next Summer. Congratulations on being chosen; you and Pumpkin deserve it!
Haha I was just telling that story the other day!

Had fun at the party last night man! Sorry we had to take off early! Thanks for the driveshaft and axles!
