bummed i couldn’t make it. :frowning:

.

Rough, I was wondering where you went.

Hopefully the dealership can set me straight. How did the Clubman do on those roads?

I had a pretty fun time rocking the Dart with everyone else. Other than being painfully slow, it proved to actually handle quite nicely. Thanks for the good times everyone. Had a blast.

if i’m you and keeping that car i would be particular about where and how it gets fixed. take it somewhere you can check on it before primer. the fast way to do that repair is by using a stack of body filler… the proper way is to pick the panels back out and just use body filler to finish it.

go grab a bumper and the trim pieces. there is a solid day+ on that rear quarter but it’ll look new.

It was a great time. I had fun driving down behind the black Forrest all road. He kept a great pace so we could have fun but not lose anybody.

Some of us Rochester guys did some pulls on the way back, and
Legacy gt > vw cc > saabaru > vr6 gli > 1.8t jetta

Yeah fun time for sure. Looking forward to the next one.

Glad to put a face with the name. You were obviously the star of my hour+ rear-facing GoPro video. I’ll also grab a screen cap of the black bear.

Glad to also hear that the pace was reasonable. Didn’t want to go too crazy, but it was nice to push it a bit here and there.

Josh, Bing, Mike, thanks for putting this all together, and thanks for the food. Truly a great day, and the woman had a total blast.

Mingle…thanks for hand delivering cupcakes, and tell the baker thanks also.

Since no one else has put up any pictures yet.

I’m not sure what Towne’s policy is regarding checking the progress, but it would be awesome if I could check it out before primer. A few people have recommended them as well so Hopefully they’ll do a nice job.

Great day! Thanks to everyone who helped set this up.

Still upset I didn’t get to make this. Baker, what exactly happened? Sorry to see/hear you hit a rail. Hopefully nothing to major besides external body work.

Sucks being the one to bump this from having such a blast last year, to missing this years. I hope someone got a lot of photos. Any other issues besides the guardrail this year? Any cops thing teenagers were driving the S6? lol

Sorry I missed out too, but I had a ton of stuff to get done in the yard/garden. I was also pretty damn beat from 2 bachelorette parties and a wedding. Next time!

those routes Josh picked were awesome.

when we were ripping up through some hard esses a lady was out with her dog and stopped and smiled and waved at us while i went through at maybe 2.5X the limit… i love america.

Yeah, the roads were fantastic. And not a single cop on the second half of the drive. The video I have is about 1:20 long, so I need to start clipping. Only a few pictures, but I’ll get those up also.

I know a guy who knows a guy who might have some people with body shops if you need help. That is a cool car, shame it got wacked.

Ha, we waved as well. Thankfully she was smart enough to have her dog on a leash unlike the “field” worker down the road.

This was a great meet. I Definitely had a good time and so did the pups. They were dead the for the whole car ride home.

And btw, those burgers were really friggen good. :tup:

It was basically understeer, then snap oversteer, then oversteer the other direction into the guardrail. The worst part is that when I looked at my GoPro after I pulled over, it said SD card full!

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I’m at the shop now so we’ll see what they say.
