Man, those parties sound fun, sucks that i can't (legally) drink alcohol....
:(
But if we were all in Mexico, of course I could... but again, our civics would be destroyed by the pot-holes. lol, believe me, I am from there, 25% of the roads are AWESOME, the other ones.... not so awesome.

Looks interesting, but I will have family here the 4th.
Is it a race and you just want to bring CC members to chill with, or is it a "bring your car" race?

Well, I did notice " aniversary edition" does it have a better engine (or other things) than a plain miata?
IDK any dentists in downtown, but if you are close to Aurora, Naperville, there is the guy that does my braces and stuff, but I think that would be a Ortheologist.... or somthing like that.

YES!!! Oct 12th in Union Grove, WI it's the last Import Wars of the season. :D The hubby is racing our red hatchie and of course I gotta bring the DD coupe with the tool box and car parts. I haven't been since April. :( A few races back (over the summer) some guy actually died at the track. :shock:

Driving in the snow is a piece of cake for me. I had practice when I live in the mountains of North Carolina and their winters. Oh man Rob would enjoy drifting into those curves. :drool:

lol yea snow and i dont get along

my car has a lot of trouble with it, not that i'm out of control, its just that that big step from being stopped to being rolling is almost impossible if there is ANY snow on the ground. its happened a ton of times where i will get out into the road, but then i will be stuck there just spinning and my car wont go anywhere, even facing downhill... i just sit in one spot.

Ahahaha, nice vid!

So you down to try again?

Thing about driving in the snow is, just go slow, so that you can counter any mistake or hazard that presents itself. One thing that's nice about IL is it's flat as hell so you don't have to worry about getting running starts up hills or sliding down the other side ;)

yea thats nice, it took me 3 hours to get into my garage one day with the civic. the road had like 4" of snow on it so i would have to approach REALLY slow to be able to make the turn, then i would get half way up the driveway and slide back down.

i resorted to ebraking into the driveway to keep my speed up, and eventually i got in :lol:
