Hey all, nice to see old and new faces here. Can barely put into words how awesome it is to see the community live on and hopefully continue to grow going forward. Looking forward to talking cars, bikes, motorsports, beer/food, video games, travel, and whatever else you like to nerd out on.

Also, huge thanks to @jminer, @Jb-boin, @nickhasanexocet, @RallyDarkstrike and all the others who pitched in to make this happen. They had this site up and running within a week of the Oppo-death notification. It may be a work in progress but is damn impressive nonetheless.

Anyway! Here's my main fleet:

2005 Legacy GT aka THE BeaterGT which has been my trusty steed for the past 7 years. I bought it with 72k miles and now sits at 144k. And no, I haven't had to replace the head gaskets or the turbo...yet.

As for the two-wheeled variety, I picked up this Specialized Stumpjumper late last year and it's been an absolute dream.

Cheers!

It all kicked off with the Corvette C8R 1-2 at Daytona on Sunday. Then the mild winter broke and we got some decent snowfall, finally!

On Monday, I started a new job after nearly 500(!) days of "unemployment" since my last job. Working with DoT data instead of financials is a nice change of pace and it's a full remote position which is what I was looking for.

And to finish the week off strong, today I received the first dose of my Covid-19 vaccination through one of NJ's Mega-Sites. The National Guard and medical staff transformed a mall to help with distribution efforts. I was in and out within 20 minutes and that's including the 15 minute observation period.

Oh yeah, some fast Cadillacs were debuted as well. Good wins all around.

The ol' Legacy GT for your time.

From the ad,
"I have been collecting wagons for years, and it has come to an end. They are located in Bangor Pennsylvania, 18013, if you cannot find that, I can't help you. If you cant get them home, again, I can't help you, offers without seeing the vehicle mean absolutely nothing to me. Seriously its like picking a ripe melon from shop rite from your couch."

Wise words.

@Manwich The Lotus Emira is up there for me.

@huzer Too cool! Years ago I would always pass a purple'ish Typhoon on my commute. And according to Wikipedia, they only made 2 in Raspberry Metallic!

Only on Oppo will you find a marriage post mentioning an M3, a blue Mazda 2, and a Corolla. Congrats again!

Who knew free bath salts when you get vaccinated could be so effective?

@just-jeepin Instructions unclear.

@save_the_milanos Your tears fuel Hamilton...

Excuse my french, but sign me the fuck up. Sounds amazing and I'm liking the C7 Z06 style spoiler over the big wing.
JUST LISTEN TO THOSE DOWNSHIFTS!

@nth256 "I knew I'd have a use for this someday"

@farscythe said in nobodies business but the turks (the race):

@samv8 guessing its going to be a hammy fastest lap then...and a bottas win

Even better, a Bottas win and the fastest lap.

@carsoffortlangley I'm still stuck (perhaps literally) in Michigan! Took me a little while to get my wheel and pedals sync'd up but it's been fun.

Gotta say, the camera work has been top notch all weekend.

@Manwich The Lotus Emira is up there for me.

@cash-rewards RS for sure. I like those cement'ish grays

@tripper Immediately what I thought of too

@highlander Wouldn't be a Subaru if it didn't love eating wheel bearings.

@WBizarre I think the wheel morph back is my favorite part about this one.

@StuckMTB Looks like a great day! How was it following a C6 Z06? I'm imagining both of you white knuckling in that first session.
