I was using a get of jail free card, and I over shot that time by a good 4 hours. So I was already in the dog house. However, I do want to see the kegarator. Thinking of doing the bmw track day in october...how about then?

That sounds like a plan. If you need a place to stay, I may have room. :D BTW, is the $90 track day at Loudon thing? I may do it as well.

Marla and I are planning on that one also Seth. If rooster doesn't have room I might, and I'll be about 15-20 mins away from his place(I can't remember what part of Manch you live in Rooster :oops: ), and 35 mins from the track.

So his name will be Ross.
Spent some time today on him. Still need to do his brakes and put his summer wheels on.
Removed a bunch of stereo stuff, amps etc.
Bent the trunk lid so that it actually shuts.
Replaced the broken headlight
Removed the broken and one good fog light.
Oil change.
He is coming along nicely.

Nice.

So what are the plans for Ross? Cage for hill climbs? WRX swap? Daily Driver?

I think the progression for now will be to run it as it, for this fall.
Revisit my budget over the winter, and hopefully a cage will be able to be put in it.
Some sort of wrx swap when the current engine decides to quit working, or I get sick of it.
It won't likely do daily driver duty. Once I do the brakes it will be inspectable, but I may not register it until the spring.
