you guys dont have to say what you voted for and its not a public poll, but if you have a comment or complaint about the subject post it up here if you'd like. I appreciate the respectable driving you guys do when we are on drives. I went on some drives when i lived in seattle and ours are safer

Some of us have more / less experience as drivers. Some cars are faster then others. I know the last drive I went on I was pushing the car pretty hard to keep up with the Byanz.

E36 M3 > E46 328i

Would I feel more comfortable going slower. Yes.

Do I want to slow it down. No.

I want to supercharge the pig and smoke you ass!

If I was looking for a comfortable drive I'd have bought a Volvo.

I don't think we drive all that aggressive.

Imigration canyon worries me around all the residentual areas, also the freaking bumps at the base of the canyon suck. East canyon will be a good run.

The hordes of bikes scare me. Especially since they wish they were a car...

I think the speed is fine, except when there are soccer moms driving Suburbans who fail to yield

I think we drive to damn fast for a group drive. :embarrasm I get scared a less experienced driver or a less capable (or maintained) car could... Anyway, there have been a few incidents arise in the past. I'm not blaming anybody (it's partly my fault), but I would like to keep these occurences to a minimum. I don't want anybody wrecking or getting hurt. We're just there to have a fun drive and make new friends. Keep an eye out for each other and be smart. Keep speeding to a minumum, when one person gets pulled over we all have to wait. Know the route before we go! I know we haven't been clear on where we're going in the past... we're trying. Last meet we did a little better. Most of you knew where we were going and everything went very smooth.

Being dA principle and heading up the meets, I feel some responsibility to keep things in an acceptable range of safety while still registering on the "fun-o-meter." Even after a year of this I am still searching for the happy medium. Feel free to talk to me during or privately anytime after the meets if you have any problems or feel uncomfortable about anything. Criticism will help us grow and cater to all the members better. Don't be shy!

Most of all, THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT! Without it there would be no dA. A lot of credit goes to Ben as well. He helps out tremendously at all our meets. I couldn't do it without him. You keep it real bro. :buttrock

end rant.

Anyway, there have been a few incidents arise in the past. I'm not blaming anybody (it's partly my fault), but I would like to keep these occurences to a minimum.what occurances? The only one that I can think of is when n00b almost died :eyecrazy

I don't want anybody wrecking or getting hurt.
Except Ni.... nevermind :roll

We're just there to have a fun drive and make new friends. Keep an eye out for each other and be smart. Keep speeding to a minumum, when one person gets pulled over we all have to wait. I disagree. If we all pull over that would attract unwanted attention. I think people should keep going, we all have cell phones, they can meet back up in a bit. Or just dont get pulled over

:devillook

Know the route before we go! I know we haven't been clear on where we're going in the past... we're trying. Last meet we did a little better. Most of you knew where we were going and everything went very smooth.True story. I think we can do better. We will do better :D
