If only she'd trust me when I say the dynamic ride height of mild drop springs is about the same dynamic ride height as stock due to the reduced loaded compression of the higher rate springs *sighs*
what the crap did you just say lol

Certainly different! It's really nice to see somebody openly supporting pride, particularly in a place like Utah. Can't be easy!

I know this is off topic but please tell me you are not one of those locals that doesn't ski/snowboard in the winter.

Boy I do love me some BCC/LCC

I like snowboarding, but I haven't been since I moved to Utah. I cringe every time I see somebody with a nice car with a ski rack on top of it, though... perfect way to ruin the looks of a nice car.

But your disdain has motivated me to try skiing with some of my friends from work this winter!

Thanks!

Only subtle ones. Maybe some purple anodized bolts for the license plate, color-matched (I think I found a close color match to Illusion Violet through House of Kolor) projector shrouds, and maybe some purple vinyl graphics (just kidding!).

I just was shocked when I was up there in January for one of my annual snowboarding trips and would go out to eat and most of the locals we talked to said they didn't ski/ride.

I was on the way to VT and saw a Lotus Elise w/ a ski rack on it heading back to Jersey. I lol'd and was shocked at the same time.

Least I've motivated you a little now to get on the mountain. I'd hold off on Snowbird til you are very very acquainted with snowboarding. That place kicks my butt every time but I love it cuz its always a challenge. Brighton, Solitude, Park City are good places to get warmed up and offer a lot of challenges to work you up to Snowbird.

Thanks much, thanks much!

Schedule keeps conflicting, but I really need to get a quick video of the car in motion. This color is just so dynamic - it's almost like a raspberry/purple chrome.
