    or anyone else who is a Michigan Alumni. Are any of you guys going back for alumni weekend? Just wondering if anyone was and if any one wanted to grab some seats for the game or tailgate.

    What date is the Alumni weekend? I got 3 runs & 2 gathering with EC, 1 possible run with GDC, 1 run and 1 gathering with Lotus Club, our 2nd Go Karting event, plus a wedding in Canada, fly my GF to Block Island for dinner, a trip to Shanghai F1 and the closing of my Loft in LA in the next 60 days.

    :D So my guess is I'm probably gonna be out. But keep me posted either way.

    Oh yeah, I forgot: I also have to find time to teach my girlfriend how to drive a stick...

    Homecoming is pretty crazy...you'll have a good time... End of Oct won't work for me, that's when my Loft is closing and I need to move all my crap out to LA.

    Now what the heck is a Coffee Trade show? I assume the crowd is rather hyper. :D

    Haha yeah, I am opening up a coffee store in Ridgewood, NJ so I figured I should start getting involved in the industry. Kinda excited though, cause theres probably alot of free coffee around. Good luck with your loft in LA.

    There's a code for "Professional Reading." Sound about right, no?

    speaking of, what do you generally drive the 430 in? Sport or Race? What benefits does Sport give you that are lost on Race? thanks homie

    I usually leave it in Sport...both you and I are not good enough to reap the full benefit of race on the street. Also the roads are too sh!tty to drive with the Race setting. Use race if you are doing a rally on curve roads like Angelcrest or Muholland Dr, etcs.

    Do you know what the exact changes the race button makes? For example, in the RS4, my S button remaps the throttle and opens exhaust valves. Any ideas on what the Race button does to the 430?

    I loved that place...have not been back since graduation though.
    All the hotties came out in the spring...and suddenly the "no hot girls in Ivies" was BS.
    The campus cops could tell me where my car was at all times, it turned out (not a ferrari, lol...but still the only hottie, other than an orange lotus on campus).
    Never got pulled over though except for having 2 girls in the front seat lol.
