I'm going to say IN for now.

Just a warning, The last time we did this (at least the time I went), the gas station didn't have 93. Not good for any of us that are particular with the gas we use or must use 93 for FI reasons. I'll have my camera equipment and gopro like last time.
They have 91 though right?
I don't remember but I think the issue was that they ran out of 93 so the only other options were 87 or 89. You NA guys can get away with that, FI?....no bueno. I think some of the guys found another gas station down the road to fill up before hand and Clint found a place on the route.

They had 93 as an option but ran out. Everyone was lined up to get gas and we all saw the signs on the pump at the same time. The look of disappointment on everyone's faces at the same time was actually kind of funny.

Hey guys, I got a link to this thread from the FT86Club Forums via kndonlee (http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42075), and I'm in the Lehigh Valley and I drive up to Heisler's all the time via 309 so I'd love to try this backroads route. I have a stock Subaru BRZ to bring along with me, hopefully not a problem. I'll be a bit down on power, but I'm all about the twisties anyway. I do have a nav system to help anyone out if they need it!

I just need to make sure I can change my schedule for that Sunday, but other than that there's nothing stopping me from joining in.

No problem, i think Don organized a FT86 s2000 drive once and was successful. You should have zero problems keeping up, and leaders periodically wait at turns so that nobody gets left behind. you should have a great time with this group.

Stock for stock, the frs/brz is slightly slower than the s2k in cornering and straight line acceleration, but not by much, and not really enough to make that big of a difference to prevent anyone from enjoying the drive.

Just got all new brake pads. Tires are almost new & all fluids look great. All I need is some blue tape & I'm ready to go.
