only thing about the belt is when you get about 12 miles in from the bridge you will approach the 2nd overpass do not use the right lane stick to middle.( all 3 are horrible and sux) but the middle seems to be the best. and go slow, around 30 or so going over it. (right lane is where i blew my shocks) other then that the belt isn't the greatest but not that bad.

the lie isn't bad either, few dips here and there but should be okay.

Right lane is the worst middle lane is almost as bad. The left lane is the best, I rolled on my Auto Coutures there with stretched tires.

Default Show is still a go

And the weather forcast seems that Sunday is going to be a Sunny day last I looked. Thanks for everyone's interest and We look forward to seeing you on Sunday. Sorry I didnt get a chance to post back up details( thanks TracknIS for the help), I was away from the office for a few weeks.

We look like we will have a wide variety of cars at the meet, and we have heard that the Lexus Dealer Tire department will be stopping by so they always have something in the bag to give away. The factory is sending over a new IS-C convertible outfitted with allthe F-Sport equiptment for us to check out. You can also check out the new HS250 if you are going green or just want to see if there is any possiblity to make a "green' car fun.

We are still trying to see what else we can get together for you on Sunday.

We will see You Sunday!!!!!!
