I had gotten my wife a Q5 as a daily driver and really started to like the driving dynamics of it and with my one Audi getting up there in miles so I decided to shop for a SUV/CUV or whatever you want to call it... After driving a few vehicles I decided on what I wanted, and was lucky enough to...
Got out for one more test-n-tune before the tracks closed and set another record for the platform... Also, managed to cut a 1.57 60ft time on another pass but had a slight shift hangup otherwise I'd have gone 11.3x Lots of things planned for next year...

Was out running some errands yesterday... I was sitting at a light when a Shelby GT500 approached(not positive of the year but not brand new), he started to get into the turning lane but then decided to pull in the lane next too me instead of turning... His windows were up so I didn't get a...
