Default For all my GTA Peeps

OK so can we awake our cars from their slumber or do you think it will snow again?

Any brave souls brought yours out yet, I haven't seen any yet.

(For all you Americans saying "Where is that?", its the Greater Toronto Area)

I won't be waking up my R till May, that is around the time when the Street Sweepers do their part.

I'm anxious too, but I have to wait.

Where in toronto are you?

Did anybody enjoy the momentary hail storm we got on Saturday? Good thing I had a think coating of salt to protect my car from those pebbles.

Been gettin some pms about an ITR GTA meet. I was thinkin Sat May 27th. I don't want to say where till the last minute, as you never know who's reading this.

pm me with what option you like.

1) Yorkdale mall
2) Square one
3) A random Timmys
4) Timmys in Woodbridge (mind you that place is HEAT these days)
5) Somewhere in the East end (where we won't get shot lol)
6) Somewhere else.

Maybe we can take a drive if it is a nice day...a nice easy drive, I can't afford any more tickets!

CSC racing in Newmarket has scales you can use for corner weighting. I've used them before.

And I'm up for a meet regardless of where its held.

The name of the shop is probably Mantis. It's on Speers Rd. but beware because they are mainly a Porsche/BMW shop so they regulary soak their clientele. They will do a good job.... if they feel like it.

Honestly though, if you're not competitively tracking your car, there really is no need for corner weighting.
