Plans for the weekend?

What a great weekend. Cars and coffee was huge...everyone is ready for winter to be over!
Thanks for everyone's concern about the car. The track spin was what it was (slapped brake marker #4 backwards at 100 mph). I was going for it on a wet track, and with my limited skills, something's bound to happen? Actually it was an amazing feeling to spin around at that speed...I hope to keep torturing this car for another 100,000+ miles. What a car, what fun!
The paint shop also took care of a couple other scratches (and the panel already had some minor orange peel from a previous owner respray job), so the car looks even better than before. It's crazy to think my car had a couple dents in the fender earlier this week...days later I rolled up to this nice parking stop!
Enjoy the random pictures...
