Mid pass while trying to be smooth, I felt the tires spin and the car slip a little; a micro release of the gas brought it back and I completed the pass with the Prius honking at me.

The road opened up after this and that slurry made for uncomfortable driving. Then out from under the trees, and their slurry, another car was visible and if I hurry up I can perhaps pass it as well. I was already hurrying so all I did was upset the cars back end on the turn before I need to commit and pass.

Shucks, I blew it but to my great fortune the car saw me and pulled over. Visibility in the fog was now limited to less than 200 feet so no more passing. because the weather was so poor no bike or tourists were present, so I still managed a better Saturday drive home than on a dry sunny one.
another great narrative from mt. Tam

I just bought from Joe at ZSpeed a South Bend clutch & flywheel kit, HD CSC, and SPL front & rear end links. Look for review on clutch in a few weeks.

It was nice dealing with Joe at ZSpeed. He gave me a great deal and actully talked to me. Like some venders don't do. Lol.

That looks soooooo good. I had thought about trading mine in for a 2013 Nismo in black or magma red since they come stock with darker wheels and red calipers, similar to yours which I'm assuming are powder coated.
