No - since I am GT3less that's just a random pic of a lava RS.

I could be in. Do you think my 4 could morph into an RS?

Awesome stuff guys! Seems like a blast and for a great cause. Where would I find more information about this? Would love to make the drive down from MI/ON to the next event if GT4 are allowed to join.

Sorry I missed the event. Didn't realize it was going on in my backyard?

I'd be interested in an impromptu event...

Smokies and Wannabe Smokies!

I have to share this morning’s experience with you all…because it relates to what all of you have been a part of.

I went to our student staffed university coffee shop this morning, ordered my usual, and a student introduced herself to me and asked if I was involved with a group that recently raised some funds for Cystic Fibrosis. I said I was one of many who participated in an event that did. She went on to thank me and then tell me her story.

Her boyfriend is 26 years old and has CF. In February he had a double lung transplant at Vanderbilt. He is doing great and his body appears to have accepted the lungs with no rejection issues. He would not have survived were it not for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and their help. She was SO SO thankful to our group for raising awareness and the funds that we did. She went on to share with me why our cause was so worth it. I was almost in tears and was also incredibly proud of ALL of us for doing what we did. Whatever little we did has already positively affected these two very young lives.

Thank you Jon B, sgroer, and thank you ALL!

Awesome awesome. Nothing in the world, not even 9000 rpms, comes close to that!
