I think whenever it happens that I may need new clutch, I'll definitely get something aftermarket, because the OEM sucks and one can't even drop the clutch once in blue moon without the clutch pedal sticking to the floor.
I did that once with TC off up in Bear Mountain,NY area about a year ago when I was having fun around the twists and turns following my brother in his G8 GT and well we had to quickly jump out of this side road with bad visibility onto this main road but seeing my brother launching onto the main road sideways I didn't think of much and wanted to do the same quickly realizing that when I dropped my clutch it got stuck to the floor.. and I decided to never do that again
John John John, I'm excited for some backwoods of PA twists and turns, with my new PSS and also hotchkis swaybars with whiteline rear endlinks going on in few weeks as well !
why did I buy a house?

HAHA, you made me LOL Chris. This story will never die out haha.
Fine fine I'll tell him...
soo... nrp... you see.. the thing is....there's no need to worry about your G being 0.2L shy because well I...last year I...
OK Fawk it , last year I drove the infamous #10 loaner car that everybody always makes fun of, because about a week before the meet up, I took the car to the dealer for faulty PS pump which they replaced under warranty, but they also found my manual transmission to be faulty which they also replaced but that took longer than expected and I was forced to drive to the meet up in the #10 loaner because I didn't want to miss it ! at least the color was the same as my car's !

hahaha because it was part of your plan to ditch the G community for that E60 M5 that you're going to buy don't make the same mistake of getting automatic, because it'll bore you pretty quick even for an M5 with a beautifully screaming V10 and those SMGs suck and are really expensive to maintain, 6MT FTW but either way you'll decide whatever you'll decide, but these are just my 0.2
Yeah it was quite disappointing but at the end of the day I got a new transmission under warranty, so that kind of put my mind at ease, but wasn't easy getting to the meet up thinking I was driving a loaner along the other guys and then actually being there at the meet up didn't make it any easier either haha.

if you do end up bringing #10 this year, make sure you swap the shield over to the loaner
Can someone PM me when there's a date and/or add me to the attendee list? Hardly come on the board anymore, but I'd love to come to this year's meet.

Haha true about the shield, but that won't be necessary, I'll make sure of it.
The date is May 16th per Connor, once there's a list or anything changes I'll keep you in mind and I'll send you a text bro!

I ran out of things to do the g, and I've been traveling a ton for work - been out of the country half this year so far, so haven't had a ton of time for the boards
For the g, I'm vaguely contemplating coupe seats since my driver's side bolster has seen better days, but there's really nothing else left on this car.
Spending way too much time on the Abarth (and therefore that's where the $ is going, that little $#!% car is a mod-money pit.)

Ok - I just wanted to provide an update for you all.
I've been calling various parks and outdoor locations attempting to request a pavilion. Turns out most were booked last year and others do not have a reservation option. I don't know how we got so lucky last year.
After taking with a few friends in the area, they suggested talking to a few local businesses/restaurants, asking to allow us some space in the parking lot to hang out. One of which is Victory Brewing Co.
I'd like to hear some feedback on this option from you all. If the general consensus is to be in a park-like environment and to BBQ, we will have to push the planned May 16th date to another day.

Maybe I'm not remembering it the same, but I recall more time spent under the pavilion than actually hanging out with the cars.
