I actually got my bushings and new shocks in just in time for the drive, so it was a great time to wear them in on bumpy roars. Unfortunately, the alignment guy from firestone didn't know toe in from toe out, and misaligned my car to have toe out (which can induce sudden snap oversteer). So, I had to take it reasonably easy (not counting a sliding sideways turn in gravel in a sharp U turn
)
But then, the road started getting wet due to fog and condensation on trees causing drops, with the end result of the roads being uncertain, and all of us backing off, because it really wasn't worth taking risks (especially down Jamison road). While this made the entire drive a bit less fun, it was still a good outing, and definitely a good shakeout for my car. The picts are here
