It's probably the nicest section of road in WI
for those of you that like your roads on the curvy side.
The ride will wind its way through WI Amish country,
so watch for those Amish Speed Bumps! "

i think it would be awesome to get a whole pack of evos up there and terrorize the roads.... midnite and I also have cottages up north to stay at so that wont be a problem.
post up if your interested and we could start organizing something

Ink- yes it should be back in 3-4 days.
bolsen- nope nothing for you they might have forgot to put it in the box
honni- Ive been there, it's OK fun, but its not the dragon. Im sure laakness can back me on this one and the first time you drive the dragon you base every other road to that one, nothing will ever compare.
Bill- you bought a damn porsche?? looks like a 930 turbo. EDIT: nope not a turbo, the ground effects are something ive never seen, might be a SCCA widebody kit, if its original you got a sweet car. Another EDIT: OK looked at the pics finally. A 78, mmmk. not horrible but has it been converted in any way, the newer engines bolt right in, just a FYI.

, Second its a 1978. and they want 17,500 and the nose is cracked. THAT being said, a bit too pricey but I had to screw with you guys. I will own a car like that some day, one that is a 930 slant, with a turbo, late 80's era.
BTW it is sitting just North of the tracks on Calhoon .5 mile from the shop.

I was looking at my front bumper last night--thinking about taking off my Mits symbol and I noticed that the two front screws that are in front of the IC don't seem to be there. Its not like they are missing it just seems as if Mits changed the setup for the IX. Laakness's screws were clearly visible in the upper corners while mine are not. Am I crazy and just mislooking or am I correct?

Looks awesome honni, how far are you from fox lake. The gf's family has a place there, and we have a spot by rhinelander/eagle river.
I got the RA up to 140 on the roads up there, and there are some sick gravel roads that are closed that we tear it up on.
