Got to park in the middle of campus to try and get members, it felt pretty cool.

That is awesome! If I wasn’t so busy at BGSU I would have started a car club here.

Your school really looks like a prison.

OH MY GOD 968CS!!!

Comes to...

Anyway, be careful about who is responsible for club activities, and what those activities are. The local university car club here just killed an innocent motorist on a “club drive” when one of the kids overcooked a corner and ran head-on into them. A shitstorm has ensued.

Sorry to hear that. I would definitely be interested in learning more about it. Have you written a post with details?

VERY nice. What school? I’m assuming that the Subie is yours. How did a college student get their hands on a 968CS?

yea, is that a REAL 968CS? if so.... *swoon* so very hot. Honestly you have some rare P-cars there for sure... not many of either of the red-headed 911 siblings around these days.

I haven’t, but should do that because there are a lot of college-age Opponauts who could use the info. I don’t have all the details and it was very recent, so I’d rather not say anything while it’s shaking out. One of the guys here used to go on drives with them, and one of the (now former) members is a good client, so I can definitely get more info come time.

I remember when I was that age, and went on club drives all the time. I stopped because people got stupid, some guys wrote cars off, and I realized I don’t trust most people to drive well or within their limits.

I’d swoon for sure, but I think you meant to reply to the OP, that’s not my shot. :)

10/10 car club advertising.

On a side note, I saw a Hyper Blue STi yesterday on the freeway in Corona...

Careful especially on the “club drives”. I have stopped doing mine as some people do not obey cyclists and nearly ran a few over.

Yep, I was thinking the same thing. I know a ton of guys who go on group drives who act like idiots. A reality check, with good intentions, is a good thing.

Why must you make me blue myself every time?

As TFritch said, be careful with the ‘club activities’ and make sure you have a clearly laid out set of rules for members. (aka: cover your a$$)

Other than that, have fun! More schools need to have car clubs.

We’ll be careful for, thanks for the warning. And it’s not a real 968CS, but the guy has put in a lot of CS parts into it so it essentially is one without the worry of damaging it.

It’s really a nice campus, just not the most flattering photo in front of the parking garage. I took this picture yesterday in the bathroom in the engineering building. We’re literally on the beach

I wondered about that, as far as I know they never imported them here. Very, very cool car nonetheless.

People can afford to buy, run and insure those while still at school??
