Ryan...

So I had to take a trip into Idaho for work and drove the 128 there. I was about to head back home and was scrolling around the map on my phone, and this caught my eye. 
In my experience google likes to route through some random shit from time to time, so why did it not make this my primary route?! Turns out to be the windiest road in Idaho.



Turns out to be excellent condition pavement, massive drop-offs on the downhill side, and a ton of fun. Made a couple laps of it!
I haven't pushed that car too hard before, and I didn't really want to find the limit of it with the consequences that were present, but man that thing really maintains traction. 

 

I just... I can't...

I think we should start an annual wibimmers scramble this year. I would definitely be in for that. And if anyone around milwaukee just wants to golf I wouldnt be opposed to it

Yeah, but TJ and I own the camp sites. So it would be better for us to coordinate, because I'll be at our site Thursday morning. I'm sure your thread was beautiful and well thought out, but I'd just like to go in a different direction at this time. I hope you understand this is a business decision, and nothing personal against you. You are a man of tremendous character. Thank you for understanding.

scramble. those are the best rounds of golf for sure! so much fun. 

Problem is all of these "golfers" wanna box you into hitting a ball around the lawn when in reality if you went drink for drink on the course you'd be tiger woods in their world.

I thought you were a myth!

Hm. Its almost as if I already made a topic about this... 
 

Oooooo, I have off the 25th and 26th, I'll try to get the wife and I out there!

Woo!  New helmet ordered!

Incredible labor of love, but some of the most beautiful machines of all time.

We might be due for a user photo thread here so I can actually put names to faces, I saw people/cars that I'm fairly certain I knew but wasn't sure...

BIG shout out to everyone who made it out today! By far the largest event to date by a long shot. Well over 100 cars and ran out of space. Amazing way to start out the way too late season. Great to see everyone! 

Really good showing this year!
Guy who owned the Aston was really cool, let me drool over it and had a nice long chat about his car collection.
I'm hoping others post pics, and those McLarens 🤑

I'm attending a work Farm Party the night before, where it is tradition to drink until you vomit.
However, I will still be attending this E30 Picnic to see my friends (THAT'S YOU GUYS), and I will have a good attitude.

Love being up north. Ultimate goal would be to have a place on the chain of lakes and a 1950s Chris Craft on the dock.
Someday.

I just noticed it says “BRING YOUR OWN LUNCH”. Be advised

The salesmen tossed my Dad the keys and we shared 20 of the most memorable minutes together driving up and down Highway 100 with the sunroof open and the.....

^^^ Very helpful list, thanks!
 
I do like the point that you can bring the tiles with, I'd not even considered that..

I have experience with a few surfaces and here is my input:
Tiles
Pros
more absorbant to impacts, comfortable to stand/walk on  you can take them with you when you relocate you can replace ones that fail fairly easy temperature - They are much better to lay on that concrete can use right after install Cons
Liquids can leak through and stain or stink (gear lube) the surface underneath making it hard to clean up spills most expensive noise can be an issue depending on the underlayment fitting around corners and mounting machines to the floor can be a challenge Floor coating (paint)
Pros
very strong easy to install easy to clean up spills fairly inexpensive mounting equipment to the floor is easy Cons
color chips need to be added for traction which can make it hard to find nuts/bolts and small hardware  tends to be very slick when wet you cant take it with when you relocate you have to allow it to cure before parking or putting anything on it still cold when laying on it Concrete polish/sealing
Pros
very strong easy to clean up spills fairly inexpensive not as slick as paint depending on sealant used mounting equipment to the floor is easy Cons
general install requires stages for a good finish you cant take it with when you relocate you have to allow it to cure before parking or putting anything on it still cold when laying on it --- 
With that said my input is tiles are the best if its a home garage. You can always take them with you when you leave too. So the price is not as bad if you consider that you will have them for a very long time. If its a shop, coatings are normally the better answer because of clean-ability,  ability to mount lifts and other equipment, and less set up time.
