I guess I should put my regular tires back on if we're going to meet up. The snow tires are pretty hopeless when there isn't actually any, er...snow.

But after reading the tire thread, I'm thinking I should go to a wider rear tire. Only thing I'm not sure about is whether I'm keeping the stock 18" wheels for my summer tires or going up to a 19" wheel.

We're putting something together soon, Vince.

The Audi guys are back, and we should be able to get together for a coffee and a highway run with a new M3, an RS4, a Vishnu'ed 335i, a C6 Vette, an assortment of hopped up S4s, etc. I'll keep everybody posted on the timing.

I was in the area at that time. Could have been me. Was there a really freakish looking guy at the wheel? If so, then most likely.

Lol, I was a few cars behind so I didn't see the driver.

Anyways, an OT question for all the Vancouver People:
So I just got my car an in-dash navigation, and I promised my gf that I'll take her out during the weekends more often. However the problem is, even with a navigation, I still have no idea where to go LOL.
Can you guys give me some suggestions? We don't mind spending one or two nights out.

I suggest a drive up the sun shine coast. You can easily do it in one day or spend the night. My wife took me there last summer and we did some kayaking for a few hours and came back. We cought a ferry in the morning and came back around 8pm, that will give you plenty of time. Or spend the night and go further in. Its really nice so cheack it out.

Hey what kind of cars turn up for your meet? Are they all proformance cars?
Id love to join but dont want to put my C350 in if you guys are rolling with RS4's and M3's. It just wont look right. Plus I'll get left behind and that will hurt my ego more than anything. lol
