Hi everyone. I haven't been around much lately but I am hoping to change that! I hope everyone is well. I'll check out upcoming events but did I miss the fall mohawk trail drive? That's my favorite!
Do you all have Facebook or Google+? If so, add me and I will do the same.. Out should be easier to keep in touch that way. Cheers.

I am afraid to even ask that question. I hope it's not like last year.
About March 1, I was starting to get to the point of wanting to go outside and scream at the sky to stop snowing

Wow, awesome infographic!
Sadly, a manual transmission is just becoming so darn hard to find. Yes, dual-clutch transmissions can do it faster. Yes, paddle shifters give you more control than the typical slushbox. But nothing, and I mean NOTHING, can ever truly replicate the feel of a properly timed heel-toe from 3rd down to 2nd going into a corner.
