I can't wake up that early.. or better yet, I refuse to.. =(
I only like going up at night, no one goes up at night?

 

I only touge early in the morning.

 

ttt.......

 

yeah night or midnight is much great...
night is still young here...

 

ttt.......

 

Titties. ttt...

 

Lol! You're funny.

 

so how did getting everyone up work out? im bummed there are no fun canyons around here to race around at. just high mountains with snow and crap roads.

 

Only one member from Fit Freak ended up going. Nghtrydr23. After observing his GE8 on the uphill, I was impressed. Even in stock form, the GE8 handles extremely well. Some sticky tires and a larger rear sway bar would be sufficient for the touge. Coilovers too for lowering the center of gravity. My other friend who drives an 01 Impreza 2.5 RS came too. We all had a lot of fun attacking the corners and eating breakfast at Newcomb's Ranch. We too some pictures at this one turnout, where I got stuck for about 10 minutes. Almost bald RT-615 + snow = Fail. Lol!

Here are a couple pics of my DB8. Since I was stuck, my friend decided to snap some pics. Lol!

 

nice. my little bro just got a 02 2.5rs impreza and is always wanting my to race him in the hills. its quick but im the better driver.
he is going to crap bricks come this feb when some t1r goodness screams pppsssssshhhhhhhhh from under my hood.

 

My friend's Impreza is stock, but he's a good driver. As far as skills, he's better than me, but I can keep up with him. 4WD is so cheating... Lol! It's a joke. Observing him from behind, the nose turns in so well during cornering and the rear end looks like it's going to go out, but it sticks. Where he's chilling in the corners, I'm fighting oversteer. I need a bigger front sway bar... Going turbo eh? Pretty nice. I think I'm going to leave my GE8 NA. I'm an all motor kind of guy.

 

with the ge8 you kinda have no choice but to wait right now. i love na setups and the challenge of tuning them but i cant see a practical way of going na with the fit unless you have some mad cash and buy a spoon l15.

 

I'm not planning on building the motor or anything. It's my beater, so yeah...

 

Man those pics are nice. It looks really nice up there. Why can't we organize a afternoon one towards night fall? so u can still see the snow and enjoy the drive!

oh and i never really understood the ttt... im guessing it was a bump?
i kept thinking of titties cuz i kept saying the t's.. sorry about that

 

I'm down for an afternoon cruise.

 

aw i just saw this i live in alhambra haha maybe next time
