Wadasan, you were the guy I was closely following. I had the Black GSR with 5lug and NSX calipers. 
Glad you had fun, take care

Other than the fact that we all got split up, it was a blast. Got to meet some cool people and since it was my first time out, the canyons owned me. Funny thing was that the canyon was not the only thing that owned me, the WRX owners did too. There were a ton of them. Very cool people and some very nice cars they had.
BTW, it was nice to meet you Greg.
Perhaps the highlight of my day, I was thrilled to find out I wasnt the only one there with braces!

had a blast meeting a lot of you!! My first meet/event and I had a blast even though I got lost right out of the parking lot. You guys all have some nice, clean cars. I think I am addicted to canyon driving, that's all I can think about right now. 
Hope to see you guys again soon.

About the same time I noticed he was gone, over the radio we heard that he got a flat. I am still wondering where he went, as at the time, there was no place, and I mean no place to pull off 
Hope he got out of there ok

That is what scares me about these group canyon runs - driving on a road you are probably not familiar with surrounded by other drivers in the same position that you are trying to impress...

Edit: Some guy with a 2002 Civic sedan blew is 17' tire out and made it fine on a donut. Not my cup of tea but at least he came home safe.

pics can be found there. still uploading. battle scars already up
I was in a silver hatch with black slips.
when driving fast thru roads which you have never been can always be dangerous. my "accident" could have been worse but I was causious, just not causious enough I guess. ah well just part of what you know you are gettign into when going on a canyon run.

One minute I had a WRX in my rear view mirror, next minute a red Teg About the same time I noticed he was gone, over the radio we heard that he got a flat. I am still wondering where he went, as at the time, there was no place, and I mean no place to pull off Hope he got out of there ok
