tunerfest next weekend.....

[wantboost]

anyway it is on the 25 (sat. i believe) and starts at 3pm. I was wondering if anyone was going, and if so would they be interested in a little 240 meet (say from 2:00-2:30) somewhere off of 85 then going to the event. lmk i am open to suggestions

edit :::::
date: Saturday August 25

location:atlanta drag way

time:1:30 till around 2 (it has been suggested that if you are competing get there early for tech inspection, ive heard the lines in past years have been long)

location of roll-out: BP off of pleasant hill

list of those planning to attend roll-out:
wantboost
xsdrifter
(and that list looks pathetic rofl)

[~The_Duke~]

I dont have a 240, but I was thinking about going because I need to dyno my car and get a 1\4 slip or 2 :D

[flip]

I'll probly be going. Too bad the STi still needs brakes :(. I bet I could shave 3/4 second off of my last 1/4 times...

[~The_Duke~]

lol you and STi brakes...

You should try to find someplace that sells them in bulk... lol

[carlova78]

where is it

[deerock]

its at the atl dragway in commerce, and im up for a quick meet and then roll down there, how about a meet at bp off p.hill?

[flip]

lol you and STi brakes...

Yah i know :)


its at the atl dragway in commerce, and im up for a quick meet and then roll down there, how about a meet at bp off p.hill?

I'm always down for meetin up before hand to ride down there.

[wantboost]

the only issue with the bp is that a subie group will be meeting there at roughly the same time. i was thinking the dave and busters. anyone else have ideas?

[flip]

But Subies are our friends too :cheers:.

[wantboost]

true, i guess it depends on how many people from here want to go. just want to make sure there is enough space and we dont interfere with business.

[deerock]

yes they are our friends....friends with awd and other goodies that we all love, and yeah the dave and busters sounds good if we dont want to meet with the subies.

[~The_Duke~]

Flip when and where are you guys meeting?

[flip]

Flip when and where are you guys meeting?

Dunno, I was gonna let you guys figure it out and go from there...

[~The_Duke~]

I am going to call kyle and what not cas I need to come up there to sell my horn at the mareitta ken stanton music store. Cas that is the only ken stanton that actually buys horns.

Kyle if you read this call me... lol

[carlova78]

haha horn. that is funnie

[~The_Duke~]

haha horn. that is funnie

lol Yes my French Horn is worth more than your car is...

[carlova78]

ha really? why are you selling it? my friend may want it.

[~The_Duke~]

ha really? why are you selling it? my friend may want it.

I will send you a PM...

[9195240sxduck]

I am down for a meet, but i want to get there asap so I can put my name on the list of people for the dyno!

I want to see what is my base line on the sr!

[~The_Duke~]

I want to see what my slightly bolted Spec will do as well so I am on the same page :goodjob:

[wantboost]

i read that the gates may open at 2 (what paul aka admin said in the ia thread) as far as the "meet" i was thinking it would last roughly a half hour
(just long enough for everyone to get there) before heading out. also is everyone going to be competing or will some be spectating.

so since there seems to be enough interest here are the things left to decide:
time:
location:

after that it would be nice to have a list of those planning on attending, and if you are competing or just spectating

again any suggestions are welcome

[Andy C]

If I go I'll just spectate. I think i'll go, and a meet sounds cool.

[flip]

Argh, this is the same day as the VP Automotive Grand Opening meet. I've already committed to DJ'ing their meet so it doesn't look like I'm making it to tunerfest this year. The VP meet is closer anywho :).

[wantboost]

i need to know who (if anyone) is going to show. i suppose since the interest does not seem that high the bp would be fine.
so Location: BP off of pleasant hill

[deerock]

yeah the bp sounds good man, ill see you and whoever else is going there and we still need a time.

[wantboost]

i was thinking on leaving bp at no later than 2:30. are you planning on competing?

[deerock]

i was thinking about competing but i probably wont, you?

[Andy C]

i cant go to the meet because i'm goin to get there a little late. But i'll see you guys there.

[wantboost]

i will pay the $30 in case i decide to have it dynoed and to park it inside the gates, i ordered a tach and it still hasnt come in so draging with no rpm's doesn't sound like a good time to me....

andyc i could pm you my cell # incase you want to meet up.

[Rbsil80]

ill go if i get my car back by then...

[deerock]

yeah i was considering that too, maybe ill do the same. and yeah my tach is out too so it doesnt sound like a fun time either, youll have to let me know how the new tach goes cause i need on also.

[wantboost]

mapquest said it would take about 45 minutes from bp (but the speed limit goes up to 70). how about get to bp at around 1:30 leave by 2 and get to at around 3:00

[deerock]

well i get off work around 1:15-1:30 so yeah i can probably still meet there, yeah the speed limits 70 but it shouldnt take 45 minutes there is never that much traffic going north anyways.

[wantboost]

and now it looks like it is going to rain again......

[DeadDoc]

It rained last year.... and wont be going. I work till 3 or 4.

[RVCA240]

anyone on 75 side wanna meet up? i think we've got a small crew rollin down

[deerock]

oh oh oh put me on the roll out list im going rain or shine.the weather report says its not supposed to rain.

[wantboost]

yea im going to go no mater what, but rain+ no a/c sucks.....

[deerock]

lmao yeah man tell me about it it gets all foggy then it gets super humid and it just sucks.. but you could just keep the windows down and go fast and waalaah no rain comes in lol i did it.

[wantboost]

oh i might have new wheels on by tomorrow (just need to mount the tires)minus center caps http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p136/maswheels/JDMPARTS121.jpg

[deerock]

[wantboost]

I think i have pictures of the duke and zack on the strip. Overall i had a good time and hope you guys did as well.

oh yea and on the way home i saw boris in his red m3 heading to commerce.

[carlova78]

[Andy C]

It was cool. Next time i'll compete, but my car is not ready yet. I met a few cool people up there, and met up with some of you guys on here.

[carlova78]

[Andy C]

correct. Yeah we could get right up next to the barriers.

[carlova78]

omg was it better than drift fury?

[Andy C]

no. It was just two guys from the mopar team drifting. They were good, but i like watching local guys drifting too.

[wantboost]

np man, just glad you made it out all right. maybe next time:D

[9195240sxduck]

Yeah I had fun, othen then went on 985 by accident and My car ran like Shit, it was not happy at all yesterday, intercooler pipe came off 2 time on the way to the track, and then My fuel pump fuse blow and I through it was my intercooler pipe which it was not! Thanks to Andy for helping me out, I was thinking my lower intercooler pipe is conected with cupings but it was just a soild pipe, till he said am I out of gas, that is when I went to the back and see is my fuel pump pumping (I just install a walbro 255 on friday night), and that is when I know there is no power to it! And then after that was fix right before my last run I notice my fuel hose comeing out of the pump is leaking, yep I drove home the whole time 30-45min smelling 93 oct!

the best I got was 15.8 which I know is very bad for a SR with HKS intake, Cat back exhaust and down pipe, I think there is a boost leak also so

anyway nice to see everyone and thanks for the waters (you know wh0 you are (Forgot your SN)) LOL

oh well time to dump more money in this baby!

[carlova78]

thats sucks duck

[9195240sxduck]

thanks

[PNKfilms]

[carlova78]

[PNKfilms]

i dont have pics but i do have footage but wait untill april cause im making a movie and its going to have footage from nopi, tunerfest, and Formula D in it and also if anyone wants to go to the track one day and let me ride with them while they drift that would be great but if u want once i get my usb cord for my camara i will post the footage

[carlova78]
