(think it was you, sure as hell looked like it) if it was, do you know the guy behind you with the older Ferrari all numbered up on the trailer about 2 miles behind you? Wheres the track day this weekend? ---

Wheres the track day this weekend? 'Twas not me. Around 7pm last night, I was at Lowe’s buying grass seed. Although I was in the X5. There’s an event at Watkins Glen this weekend, but that’s west-bound. ---

HUH. Honestly I thought it was a Q7 towing it. when i caught a glimpse going the other way. Platinum Gray (i know its a vw color but i dont know the BMW one) 02-ish looking M3, numbers and some decals on the side glass, tire rack on the trailer with some tires up there. have fun with the grass seed, that reminds me I have to do alot of yard work too! arghh ---

Watkins Glen was epicness. Car is fucking awesome compared to my highly modified LGT, considering the M3 only has bushings, brakes, and some power mods. Gave three or four point bys all weekend (when not in the point-by exercises), and two of them were to an instructor driving their student’s E92 M3. Not too bad for first event with this car on my first time on WGI.
