    RDU Enthusiast Club Meet Week of 10Nov2013

    Hey guys. I am going to start a new thread for each meet so we don't get super long threads going. But I wanted to start planning for the next meet. Which day would be best for you? Monday 11Nov2013 or Wednesday 13Nov2013. If anyone has a different day to post, let me know. Vote away!

    I'm not that much of an enthusiast of the RDU area. But I like Miatas, can I come?

    7pm as usual.

    We stayed pretty late last meet because Steven came late and we had some pretty good discussions going on.

    So James had mentioned that Dave and Busters is opening up today at Cary Towne Center so maybe next weeks meet on Wednesday evening over there? Let me know. I know I will be hitting it up sometime before then because I have to kick ass on Daytona.

    Track day was good. No mechanical problems, no weather, no spins or off track incidents. If you were spectating you would've thought it was boring, and that's how a track day should be.

    Gopro video will be up tomorrow. I got braver as the day went on. By the end of the day I was braking after the last brake marker at the end of the back straight. Damn these cars stop.

    You said it. With the late model brakes, good pads and SS lines, you will be hard pressed to find better stock brakes on a car this cheap. Braking is probably one of the biggest assets on these cars. Combine late braking with gobs of mechanical grip, the corners are where you find the best, easiest passing opportunities at the track.

    Here's some videos.

    Me chasing my dad. Watch the whole video, it's crazy how much time I make up on some parts of the track:

    I'll probably be hitting up the Dave and Busters up tonight to check it out and see what games are there.
