i found a neat little toy today at CVS. i was trying to think of how to get some cool shots from road level as i'm driving, without having to strap my mom's exspensive sony handcam to my bumper. she told me cvs is now selling disposable digital video cams.
they're 30 bucks, and you get about 20 minutes of record time. then cvs will make it into a dvd for you. sure beats running over my mom's sony
meet bumper cam.
i'm gonna figure out a good way to rig it up tommorow, and see if i can get some cool shots.

Just thought I'd post a positive dealer experience I had since there seem to be few.
My tires needed blanaced and rotors needed turned at 11k. Bariel, the place I bought the car fixxed the problems at no cost with absolutely no BS. I expected the balance but was unsure about the rotors even with such low mileage. I never drive the car very hard and I assume there was a defect of some kind.
Thus far, I have been very pleased with Bariel and will continue to use them.
I had a run in on McKnight with a WW evo8 MR. Cool guy. We did a quick run from a light to the top of third.
BTW: Keys for the evo are $50. Ouch.

just got back from zelie, damn was that fun.
on my first run, i slipped the clutch WAY to much and was smelling burnt clutch for about the next hour. haha. but my second and third and run were really great.
i raced against glenn (ozrally) each time, and that turbo is looking good. i beat him by a good bit, but mostly because of my launch. once i got into 3rd he was keeping a pretty even distance from me. should do way better when he gets some new tires and an MBC so he can run 7 psi instead of 4.
although, on my last i thought i broke something in my car because it was making a really viscious knocking noise from the rear. gt420hp, tell your friend with the STi i'll race him next. it turned out that the jack in my trunk had come loose on my last run, and was knocking against the spare tire and trunk metal.
all in all a great. now i'm sure i won't make an *** of myself at prp and maybe even pull a decent time.
i actually just had a positive deal expierience the other day too actually.
i went out south park mitsu to get that weird noise of mine looked at again. they had me in righ away at 930, and by 3 in the afternoon had changed my oil, and switched out the front passenger side sway bar end link. apperently it was a bit worn and was making a good deal of the noise i have been hearing.
when i went to pick my car up, they washed, waxed, vacumed, and scrubbed my rims.
if they keep cleaning rims that well, i'm gonna be having noises checked out about twice a week.

Yep..it was fun to race at Zelie. Nice to see some EVO's showing up all of the Subies...I think we put the question to rest tonight that EVO's RULE over any STI's...

By the way the car is fixed so PRP this week for sure. Just went to Nate last night to do a few tuning issues. Will be ready to run in the shootout this weekend in OH. Congrats to everyone who put the screws to any WRX's yesterday. May they all burn in hell. 
P.S Marios GS-T is not to be focked with I only pulled by 2 car lengths on the I-70 last night
