As always, these things are attracted to mobile home parks. Several were vaporized and people are homeless. Definitely not tornado alley type stuff, but enough to disrupt lives. That's the 2nd destructive tornado in Fort Myers in 3 weeks...in the winter. WTF?

Climate change. Paying more taxes will fix it, or so I've been told.

Yeah well, all the Arctic ice is melting because it's only 40 below up there. Lucky for us Antarctic sea ice has been increasing for the last 40 years so we won't have to worry about dying of heat stroke for the next couple days because they offset each other.

Crazy weather here this Winter. Damn tornado hit right where we had dinner last night. Not a monster storm but weird to see tornadoes here, much less Winter.
Big thanks again for watching the kiddos! They had a blast with you guys! Scott

Why are mobile home parks magnets for tornadoes? This is about 10 miles from my house.

I'm still pondering the best approach to that box just past the halfway point. I was coming in too far to the right and was jacking up my turn in the box. I did have a killer instructor though. Scott

Now you are talking! Get one of the Twins (BRZ/GT86/FRS) and have a blast. Not a lot of power, but one of the best autocross cars out there.
