Ooooft, big outage for Facebook (seems to be effecting everything)

[SebastienPeek]

Oh nice work CJ, I'm trying to see if I can take next week off but who knows, we just started the fourth quarter projects so not sure if I can really secure the time off before Black Friday etc

[theseeker411]

Finally getting two days off this week. First time since May, aside from Cory's funeral.

[theseeker411]

Took the Scrambler up to Woodland Hills on Sunday. Had lunch with Jeremy and Allie and then chased their M3 through some of the Malibu canyons. Super fun day. I definitely need some sort of Camelback system though.

Sounds like a perfect Cory weekend.

We have absolutely hit that age where checking in with each other is necessary. I think having a kid made me realize this, then with Cory passing it exacerbated everything.
I caught myself messaging family members, having more FaceTimes with people back in Australia etc, it's necessary now.

I hope y'all are doing well and safe

[theseeker411]

Probably not a bad idea. Definitely the worst part of getting older.

While I didn't know Cory, his passing got me thinking. Have we hit that age where we all need to be checking in with each other, because from here on out, the only time we find time to get together is at funerals?

It was good to see his mom and youngest brother again, hadn’t seen them since 2012 or so. Met Katie for the first time, she’s as sweet as C-Hutch was. We cried a lot.

Also witnessed some burnouts, e30 axle failure, and got the cops called on us. So, perfect Cory weekend.

[SebastienPeek]

I bet CJ. I bet it was filled with sadness and celebration all at the same time.

[theseeker411]

Jesus what a weekend.

[theseeker411]

I keep feeling so fucking guilty.

I hit up Cory after he'd posted up on IG about his health issues, back in April. He said he was feeling good at the time, so I told him that my girlfriend and I were going to try to see him if we took a trip to Nashville this summer. Thanks to all of the money issues I had due to changing careers, that trip never happened. Goddammit, I wish we would've gone.

I’ll post up in that thread when I’m home from work.

Junk guys came and got the e46 today. Gave me $975 for it, which is better than the $500 offers I was getting for trading it in.

Picked up a 2015 Impreza 5 speed sedan. 86,000 on the clock. Just needs a good detail.

And some wheels and low.

[SebastienPeek]

Have been in the same boat man, all the little chats and laughs that were shared. The ability to remember as much as possible, while feeling guilt and grieving is extremely difficult.

I think starting a thread could be very helpful for the people that are still on here, as well as just making sure Katie feels the love from everywhere possible.

[MommysLittleMonster]

I hardly slept last night. I tossed and turned, literally racking my brain to remember more and more little details and nuances and things that happened when I got the chance to visit Cory.

I want to make a thread for people to post in, remembering Cory and the stories they had with them. It's easier than writing something sentimental, and it would bring me a little peace hearing stories about him I might have missed.

Thoughts?

[SebastienPeek]

It's been a rough couple of days for a lot of us.
I've been trying to find the words to make a post, and every time I write something out or re-read someone elses, it just makes me so fucking sad.
