What did everyone do this weekend?

All Cars get dirty, thats part of ownership. I'm not worried.
Sadly I wont be installing these any time soon.
I have to do my 105k service in the next 2 weeks.
Also, I want to buy everything for the car first and then take a weekend off and install it all. Skunk2 UCA's, Wheels, tires, A-spec kit, sarona spoiler, CSL Trunk Lid spoiler and other little things. Its gonna kill me but it will feel like such an accomplishment when she is rolling really nice and I will have worked hard for the accomplishment. Plus I have a $900 set of tires on the car, would like to not ruin the set. Also they have 80% tread left.
I just got back from the Casino in Cherokee, NC outside the Smokey Mountains....
Walked in with $30
Walked out with $.10
Conclusion: Casinos are for people who have money to burn/loose.

Worked pretty much all day saturday, went to AWD meet off independence, went shooting sunday and pumped nearly 100 rounds through a shotgun and now my arm is fucking sore (was worth it)

^I love shooting shotguns. It's one of my favorites, especially if there are fun things to shoot. Bryan lmk when you go shooting next. Might have to bring the handguns out.

It appears they're resurfacing all of Johnston rd which is fantastic. I wont have to slow down for those brick cross walks near the ruby Tuesdays anymore hopefully. I'm wondering what they're going to do to the road where it goes under the new flyover. It looks like fuck right now.
and Bearcat94, I saw you last night in the chickfila drive thru. Just in case you pop in here and see this.

Where did you go shooting around here? I am looking for a good sport shooting place with sporting clays, trap, skeet, 5 stand, etc.

I do what I want a lot, however, this weekend is her birthday weekend, and I can't be THAT selfish. Maybe I'll try to attend the Raleigh C&C.
Also, who is going to the CCI meet next weekend? I'll actually be able to attend that one
