Modified STI

Post by Subtle »

On the way up to Whistler Mountain on Friday, I stopped at Rocket Rally in Squamish.

Patrick and the race crew where at a rally somewhere, but I wanted to talk to Jamie about brakes and suspension.

The springs and shock settings in his car were stiiff for my needs---but does that STI move :shock: . Drove it a short way on a winding road, and the steering is quick and the acceleration from any rpm is awesome.

As we started, Jamie admitted to be a nervous passenger so I didn't make it any worse--I hope.

Powder snow at the top on Saturday morning and spring conditions lower down later in the day. Bright sunshine and not a cloud in the sky.

Same on Sunday, but the powder was carved up and warmer temps provided lots of runs with spring snow--

What a week end :!: :!:
