I'm originally from Thunder Bay and the next closest place of similar size would be like you driving to Philadelphia. So Brighton isn't that far in comparison... but yeah a pain in the butt, especially if it's in uncharted territory for you. As someone who like the 'rally car' look, I'm so excited to see this completed.
