Nice! I'm guessing the autocross scene is alive and well back there.

Those S turns remind me of lime rock in CT.
 
7 years married today. Funny story, we go back to the place we were wedded at for dinner they offer a discount for us it’s nice. So the bathroom outside their tavern had a line so I walked over to the bathroom near the hall where the parties to be wedded do their tastings. Some guy in there is like you aren’t part of this why are you here? I was dressed fairly casual everyone in that hall was dressed to the 9s. I told the guy well I got married here 7 years ago today and I’m going to pee wherever I like! He’s like well …. Okay? So I did my thing and left. Maybe he expected a different response.

Either way we had a good time then went to a dessert and coffee bar up the street for a crappy live guy. Totally murdered cash and Chapin. Our drinks matched our desserts lol

Edit just realized the veloster is in the dessert photo lol

Well well we were back in hartford for an AX and it was a blast! Fast course, some drizzle and some fast times. I finished 8th overall of 47 entrants and 1st in class. My first win and new mug since April 2022. Tune in next week for tsmp…

the inner pad was gone. Once I got it apart of course the boot was bad, I must have pinched it when I greased the slides. So new rotor pads and caliper here.

This should fix the front passenger side from doing all the work. Damn modern abs.

Great day at Palmer motorsports park today, car ran great and after 7 attempts over the years I finally conquered the mountain. Had a codriver since his bmw burst an oil line and set myself a new personal best.
