July Tampa Meet

[**DONOTDELETE**]

There has been suggestions for a meet to take place on the weekend of July 4th in the Tampa area. A few things. First, let's get a count on how many will for sure be able to make it. Now, 2nd, should we set it as a one day or a two day event?

How many people will be willing to pay upfront for a dyno event? Generally, a three run dyno session w/ wide band will run $40.

Before anything's decided, we should see how everyone wants to do this.

Based on a two day event, charging people around $50 per car w/ driver and $5 per person, will cover a healthy lunch and also a sercured dyno session. Everything will really depend on how many people are showing up. Everything will be a maybe until an approx number is said. Now, there should be a pre-pay price and also a price for people joining at the last second. If there are enough people that are travelling to the event, it would also be possible for us to search around with local motels that are willing to get a group rate going. It's June already, if we want this to happen in July we need to get this thing going.

Example schedule -

Meet Gathering - July 5th at 12:00pm at the given location (preferred at the selected resturant)

After lunch get a big caravan going

Head to Ybor or Malibu for the night

Sunday, July 6th, meet up and get everyone's car dynoed.

Suggestions everyone!

Thanks

[twelve_thirty_flight]

aaww, now there are three(3) Tampa meet threads. Can we combine them?

[irocsx2002]

Well I guess everyone keeps "talkin" about having a meet but Ian is the one who will probabely be "getting things done."

We all know from the previous threads that there is definitly going to be a meet in Tampa. We should make this the new thread and forget about the others.

I can confirm that I will be there and will prepay for the dyno when the prices are set, etc.

Thanks,

[**DONOTDELETE**]

All right, at least some one replied.

Resturant choices:

- Hooters
- TGI Fridays
- Rio Bravo

I know for sure these places are located centrally on Del Mabry with a pretty sizable parking lot. This will be one of the most important decision we need to make and fast. Give me a list of resturants you all may have in mind and I will go to each and everyone and find out what their interest might be.

As far as plans after lunch/dinner, Malibu has been mentioned. Well, cars (street races/people meeting up for Saturday, whatever you want to call it) starts to meet up at around 9~10 pm. If we planned to meet at a resturant at 12:00, for both the car show and lunch, we can all cruz over to Malibu or whatever we decide to do at around 5ish. Which will give us planty of time to kill at Malibu and then head out for the races.

Since it's going to be a 2 day event, I suggest that we have the car show on Saturday and dyno day on Sunday. I will see what I am able to work with the pricing of the dyno. What I plan to do will be a pre-pay price and a price for the actual dyno day.

As far as motel/hotel goes. I will need to know if anyone will be needing a place to stay. If there are enough people, I will again, go around to local hotels/motels in the general area and see if we can get a group rate going.

Come on, this thread/subject seems to be dying. Suggestions and any other comments are more then welcome.

Ian

[StealthmodeS14]

First off, I'm game for meeting anywhere and eating anywhere. I'm in no matter what...as are quite a few of my friends with Nissans.

Second the days will be Saturday the 6th and Sunday the 7th....just don't want any confusion...hehehe.

I think Hooters would be a good place to go, but I'd talk to any and all resteraunts and see what thier thoughts are. And for your sake Ian, I'd assume at least 50 cars will show just to be on the safe side.

I'm also good for the dyno runs as well..and hotel info is going to be neded to, cause I will propably mak it a weekdn thing....2 day event sounds great!!!

-Bill

[**DONOTDELETE**]

I will find out about the dyno pricing later on today. I will have that listed on this thread. As far as place we can consider, I will call around and see what places will welcome us.

I just called a few hotels/motels, but being Sunday, not much info was gathered. Normal pricing according to the few place are right around $75~$130 a night. What I am aiming for will be a centralized location, a decent motel/hotel, at around $40~$50 a night. I do need feed back on this ASAP.

Ian

[**DONOTDELETE**]

For everyone that's interested.

Please also leave your e-mail address. I will be creating a mailing list for this meet. Any information that I gathered will be e-mailed to everyone that's on the list.

Thanks

Ian

[arkman0]

RINKU

[Una]

-Ed

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Una, be in the G? Not sure what that means.

This is good, finally some definite answers. What's everyone thinking about the dyno idea? Pre-charge or not?

[**DONOTDELETE**]

i'll sign up, although i'm a v6 am i allowed?

[minuteman]

-Rob S.

[NOSTALGIC_HERO]

yeah
sounds like fun, but what is in the area??

are we gonna be in a fun area? will a cruise be organized, those are always a blast...

hopefully this wont be just a dyno session/sit around deal, i would love to help out and get people there.

[Spork]

hehe, im down if you dont mind a toyota hanging out w/ you guys (AE86), i might talk my brother into coming down from NC..he needs a vacation anyway (92 240 w/ sr swap etc...) but im definately down for the meet...ian, you know how to get hold of me...i call the sofabed this time!!

[jk240sx]

i'm definitey in for the saturday meet and cruise.

jerry/

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Man, I am going to start charging for the sofabed, it's becoming increasingly popular! I am going around to various places today to find out about some prices and interest. Hope I will have good new later on today.

[StealthmodeS14]

Yeah guys, as stated beforem this is not just a 240sx meet.. all Nissans are invited. Not too keen on the Toyota though...hehehe...j/k.

Estevan, if you can, get with myself and/or Vik and we can talk about rallying as many folks as we can from our respective areas and then of course all cruise up there together. If able to, come out to the meet this Wednesday at Andretti and we'll talk...shouyld be quite a few guys there so it'll be worth it to come.

I have Kyle working on rounding up any and all the folkd from Miami.

Walsh240@yahoo.com

-Bill

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Oh ya, it will be a Nissan Meet, rather a 240SX meet. Anyone with a Nissan are more then welcome to drop by. BRING IT

[MaxType 240]

I'll be there in the S14 along with a G20

Ian, you kick a$$, glad to see this taking off images/icons/grin.gif

[**DONOTDELETE**]

OK, a few problems that I am running into.

Called a few places, but no one's interested in hosting something like this. What they don't want is to have a huge group of people to take their parking lot on a holiday weekend and have no business coming in. I know what a lot of you are thinking, we are potential customers, that's true, but we will be in the place for maybe an hour and that's it.

OK, a lot of people are suggesting public parking lots, such as International Mall, or USF, this will not work out. For the amount of people that are coming, it's not wise to be chased out of places by the cops. We need somewhere that we can actually stay and not get hassled.

One place that I can think off will be at the end of the Gandy bridge. Need some suggestions guys.

[MiamiGrinch240]

I'll start spreading the word to the Miami guys as soon as I get a definate amount of time to tell them to ask for off from their jobs, and a hotel near to the meet where they can sleep.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Again, to re-cap.

Meet will be between July 6th ~ July 7th

I will have hotel information needed in just a few days.

[StealthmodeS14]

Just a heads up for all who have expressed interest...I'm in the process of going thru FA and gathering any and all members located in Fl and am going to send them an e-mail in regards to this meet. If you could, just send me a quick reply on if you'll be a definate, maybe, or a no show. I'm gonna try and get a tally for Ian to get a beeter idea on how many folks will show.

-Bill

ps......if any of you guys (there seem to be a few) have an e-mail address that you don't have listed in you profile, please give it to me for contact purposes...thanks so much!!

[MiamiGrinch240]

I don't know about dynoing the car but I am pretty sure I'll be there.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

LETTUCE LAKE PARK?

Have not been there myself, but will go and check it out tomorrow.

I called around to a number of places, but no one's willing to host us. So, Plan B, at a State Park. As long as we are not being stupid, we should be OK. We can have our gathering there for the afternoon.

Meet at the park at 3:00 afternoon on July 6th. Hang out and check everyone's car out. Break for dinner and meet up at Malibu Grand Prix. I am currently working a group deal with them right now, I will have all that information tomorrow regarding that.

So, a basic layout -

July 6th, Saturday -

3:00 - Meet at LETTUCE LAKE PARK
5:00 - Break for dinner (hopefully everyone will end up at the same place)
7:00 - Meet at Malibu Grand Prix
WHENEVER - Head to the races

July 7th, Sunday -

11:00 - Meet at which ever motel most people are staying at and head out to the dyno

I am contacting around local motels that are located right of I-275, which will be the most convienent for everyone. More info to come!!!

[**DONOTDELETE**]

This blows. Originally I was all about this meet and greet and now I'm going to New York that weekend. Jerry, Nick and Neil both were interested in going. Have fun! Peace.

-Chris

[RDM_II]

I might come down to kill you all. I mean, hang out with you all. I need another Florida meet. I won't participate in any illegal street racing though. images/icons/grin.gif images/icons/grin.gif

[StealthmodeS14]

Ahhhh...Russ my friend. I knew you'd show before long..I know how you miss the area images/icons/wink.gif

....alright, I just got 60 Members names from previous Florida threads from the past. I'm either going to hit you up an AIM or send an e-mail your way. Let me know your thoughts on the meet.

*sigh*....man do we need a members search here...wait a sec....aha...off to the feedback and suggestions forum..hehe.

-Bill

[irocsx2002]

Ian, how big is the parking area for LETTUCE LAKE PARK?

-Rob S.

[StealthmodeS14]

Ian...talked to someone yesterday who said is going to get in touch with you and give some help towards the meet. He mentioned a plkace called Desoto park or something???? He sent me pics of another meet he attended thewre and the parking looked huge...and it's right on the beach as well...just a thought. I'll shoot you an IM around 5:00 when I get home this afternoon..

-Bill

[hssaini]

Ian

LETTUCE LAKE PARK and MALIBU GRAND PRIX and I275 MOTELS/HOTELS are like less than 10 miles of each other.....This sounds like a nice setup.

Let me know if there is more i can do. Find out more about Lettuce Lake and give us your opinion. Don't forget to roam all areas of the park and check out different lots and not just the front ones.

RINKU

[MaxType 240]

Ft Desoto Beach is rated among the top 10 in the world. It's a state park & quite tranquil.
We'll have to pay to get in ($3?).

Proposal: we should meet off an I-275 or I-4 exit. That's where the Orlando/Melbourne/Miami people will be coming from. We should consider the folks coming down I-75 too.

In any case, we shouldn't meet at Ft. Desoto b/c that's another 45 min trip west from Tampa. The exhilerating run over the bridges should be done once we're all together images/icons/smile.gif

[Spork]

Ian,

if Lettuce Lake Park is gonna work out ok, see if there are any bbq pits and/or bench areas....we can have a big bbq while we hangout in the parking lot..i'd be more than happy to cook, just need to get people to bring burgers, dogs, buns, condiments, drinks, etc...we did this at the last meet i went to, turned out great....

[jk240sx]

the only problem with Ft desoto is that this will be the weekend of the fourth and that place will be packed. we will not be able to get adequate parking since it will be first come first serve.

lettuce lake is a good choice. i've been mountainbiking there. it's linked by trail to the hillsboro state park. if we can't get parking at lettuce lake, we could try further west up fletcher to Morris bridge park or flatwoods.

jerry/

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Just came back from Lettuce Lake Park. We have ourselves a place for the meet. There are three major parking area in the park. I would say there are about 30 parking spaces in each of the parking area. I think that should be sufficent enough for us!

Lettuce Lake Park will be easy to find, no hassel from anyone and there are also lots of motels right outside of the park that people are able to stay at.

A few things -

Spoke to Malibu Grand Prix, Courtyard Marriott, and also the Secret Service Dyno. Here's the scoop.

Malibu Grand Prix - $19.99
Which will include:
- 3 Indy Style Racing Laps
- Unlimited Go-Karting
- Unlimited Mini Golf
- 10 Game Tokens
They are open till 12:00 am on Sat. Which will give us plenty of time to enjoy our $20.

Secret Service Dyno - $45
- Approx 15 cars capacity for Sunday
- Includes 3 runs
- Includes Wide Band

Courtyard Marriott - $59.00 per night
I have called numerous hotels and motels, the Courtyard Marriott seems to be the best bet out of all of them. The hotel is located right of off I-75, which is one block east of Lettece Lake Park. They were not the cheapest, but they are the nicest out of all the hotels that I called. Motel 6, Super 8, Days Inn, hotels that are not the greatest are charging $50 per night for a group rate, which made my believe people are probably more willing to pay $9 more for a 5 star hotel.

Reservation information will be posted later on today.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

MidNiteJedi,

There was quite a few benchs with a BBQ area. I would love to get a BBQ going. For something like this, I think it would be best if we can get people to pitch in like $8~10 per person. Like I said, I don't mind getting everything organized, but will need funds to make everything happen.

A few things for everyone to think about:

I think it is better off, for confirmed attendences that people pre-pay. If you are for sure coming and will stick it out for the whole meet, I think it's good to pre-pay for the Malibu package and also towards the BBQ.

As for Dynoing, that's dealt souly through the dyno shop, I tried to get a better price worked up, but they are not budging on the price.

[StealthmodeS14]

How would you have folks pre-pay...when they arrive at the meet or are you speaking even beofre that???...confused.

Either way it doesn't matter to me...I'm a shoe-in. Glad evrything came together...now we just have to round up more people....The Courtyard by &lt;Mriott is a nice hotel too...god job Ian, I'll IM you again this afternoon

-BIll

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Bill,

That's what I will need suggestions for. Here my problem. OK, so I front the money, getting a couple hundred burgers and hot dogs, but how many people are for sure coming? If people are for sure that they will come, I don't think paying up front, to sercure the BBQ and Malibu will be a problem. As far as paying ahead of time, maybe paypal or something like that.

If we just want to meet up for a little while and all head out to a resturaunt, that's cool, but it will break everyone apart. If we get a BBQ going, it will be a lot more fun with everyone chillin around. BUT, I would feel more comfortable for people to sercure that with us, rather just an empty promise that they will show up.

Ian

[jk240sx]

Hey Ian & Bill,

i've posted links to this forum on the other boards.

e-mail me if you guys need any help in getting this together.

jerry/

[PongAtari]

I've been ignoring this for the longest time, but it seems like it's getting pretty big, so I think I'm in! I'm coming from Ft. Lauderdale, and will be needing a hotel room on Saturday night. How's the Malibu Grand Prix thing work - 3 Indy style laps but free unlimited go-karting? I haven't been to that place for years.. can you explain it to me? My email is sideshowjaime@gospeedgo.com, but will probably be changing soon because the e-mail provider is switching to a pay service.

[jk240sx]

i think John is right about the bring your own. that way every one eats what they want. i just got a Grill-2-Go and will be bringing it. since i'm local, i can bring condiments, sodas and such.
i'll also bring several coolers with ice.

jerry/

[StealthmodeS14]

Just a real quick heads up fellas....between the last two nights here on FA I did some searching and tried to come up with as many folks from FL as I could that frequent the 240sx forums. I will be typing up a quick e-mail in regards to the meet and am going to ask for your reply to whether or not you plan to attend. Even if you are fully aware that you do plan to come, please just shoot me back a quick e-mail with your answer. I'd like to have a solid number of attendees atleast a few weeks ahead of time...that means no longer than two weeks....It'd help out so much!!!

Thanks,

Bill
....oh, and what does evrybody else fell we should do for food...bringing your own sounds like a good idea..less hassle IMO

[ 06-05-2002, 02:08 PM: Message edited by: HondakillaS14 ]

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Most people that I have spoken to are more supportive to the BYOM thing. So, there WILL be a BBQ, for everyone that are coming and wants to eat, please being something along.

There are a total of 274 parking spaces at the park, with 12 BBQ areas. Only one BBQ area can be reserved, but it was already taken. The park opens at 8 am, I will be there early so we can get a BBQ for the day.

That's it for now

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Courtyard Marriott

$59.00 + tax per night

Reservation information -

Ian, get your tent out and set up NOW for the star wars tickets......I mean bbq. hehehe

Sounds good then on the food issue....what about drinks

1. Pitch in when we get there and get a runner to get a crap load?

2. BYO Drinks?

-Rob S.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Hey guys,
I'd love to join you guys just hang out and meet some other 240 owners. I just bought mine yesterday for a thousand bucks, HA! It's nothing pretty but it's going to be. Anyway, there's no reason for me to do the dyno, but I would love to help cook. I have a small portable grill I can bring if we need, I can cook too. So, do you have to pay full just to come and hang out?

John R Craig

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Sounds like BYOM (Bring your own meat) if a cook-out is in order. It's always too hard to organize the amount of food etc, etc... That way, whoever comes with food, eats. Just bring your food over to the grill. Let's see, 3pm at the park you say? Some people might not want to eat until later anyway being in between lunch and dinner. I myself love cookouts and would love to see everyone hang out and eat. If everyone can just bring enough food for whoever is coming with them, that would work. No prepay needed, and no ************ing about the kinda of fod etc...
If we need to prepay for Malibu, then that's fine. Oh, I won't be staying at a hotel, I'll drive home then come back. (I live about 45min away in case anyone wants to crash!?)
I'm not trying to say how it should work, but if everyone is not going to do everything (dyno, malibu, food, etc..) then it will be hard to regulate price!?! If you guys have all done this before though and can make it work, then just tell me to shutup.
I'm in. ~ john@digitizelife.com

John R Craig

[Una]

Uhmn...
So you guys expect us sofla guys to drive 300 some odd miles with a package of ground beef, and a 6pack in the back seat?

You must be kidding me.

I think the pre-pay idea is muuuuch better. images/icons/smile.gif
I'd be willing to paypal Ian $5 or $10 in advance.

So, Who's with me?

-Ed

[StealthmodeS14]

Ummmmm...they have these things called coolers Ed...might want to check into them images/icons/wink.gif ...hahaha...j/k man.

If you fell like the pre-pay idea is bettere then pre-pay. I propably will do neither..I'll stop on the way or wait till later that evening for food....

-Bill

[PongAtari]

Tampa's not THAT far away from us! Just take I-75/Alligator Alley.. it's WAY quicker than the other way.

Ian<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial[/img]Hey Ian,
I live in Tampa and I think that a great place to meet is on the Corner of Dale Mabry Hwy and Fletcher Ave. There is a closed down movie theatre called Mission Bell. Towards the night, it is very desolate and the parking lot is huge. There is a group of people that show up in their MR2’s but the parking lot is more than enough to accompany us all. We would have a choice of restaurants to meet at, there is a Chili’s across the street, a Denny's in the same plaza, a Rio Bravo (also in the same plaza) as well as a Checkers next to that (For the less extravagant peoples). If you guys wanted to go to Malibu, all u have to do is take Fletcher Ave. down to Nebraska Ave. and make a left and you are right in front of Malibu. 275 is right in between Malibu and Mission Bell. Tell me what you think!

China

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Hey guys, this shouldn't be a big deal. If you need to drive far and don't want to bring a cooler, that's cool. There should be a Publix or whatever nearby where you can stop and pickup some junk. As for drinks, we can get someone to make a drink run for those who didn't bring any with them. How early do we need to prepay for go-carts? If we can don't need to pay really early, we can collect the $20 when we all get there, take names of who paid, then someone can run down to Malibu and let them know that we are all coming and give them dough. If we need to pay early, then pay-pal it up. Whoever lives near Malibu. Have we talked to Malibu yet about reservations? Do we need them? Oh, and let's try getting an official intenerary posted by whomever is taking control of this. That way we can work out the fuzz as soon as possible. Coo?

If you guys get tired of the Malibu and the food and the racing..... There is a place i go to nad my friend works there so I'm sure that I could arrange to have the place open after hours. It is a laser tag place and maybe you heard of it? Q-Zar. It is pretty pimp there, there is the laser tag as well as the game arena looks like a dizzamn clizzub, they also have many games there, the music they play there is always blairing and the people are cool as FIZZUCK too.

Come on guys. We need to get it together a little here. I have all the information listed already. Pretty much decided on what will happen. All information are listed under the new thread. Pre-pay or not will be up to you guys. I am just trying to keep everyone grouped together and have a little more fun, instead of wasting time running around to stores when we can all stick together.

Malibu has already been setup. There is absolotly no problem for us to get the tickets when we get there, but with 50 or more people, it will be quite a long wait. No one's permitted to enter the park until everyone in the party's registered, granted with the amount of people, it will take some time.

Just trying to make everything easier. There are plenty of people that knows me here in Tampa, I am not going to run off with your $10 burger money.

[StealthmodeS14]

Have to agree with Ian on this one guys...everything has been set. Lettuce Lake is where the meet is to be held. If we decide to we can always make that movie theatre parking lot a meeting place for later on in the night.

-Bill

[StealthmodeS14]

Well consiedring this is an all NIssan meet, I'd say far it looks to be a success. I have finished sending out all e-mails to all the 240sx guys on FA (most anyways...) and already have close to thirty confirms!!!! ...that's still with having 35 e-mails still out there. ANy of you guys who don't have your e-mail address in your profile please post it or just post a reply in this thread so as I can add you to the list of hopefuls.

Something like a compilation of everything thats been said here, a list of people confirmed, directions with maps, and stuff like that.

luvvybug - Terri (Green S14) is my girl!

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Just came back from Lettuce Lake Park. We have ourselves a place for the meet. There are three major parking area in the park. I would say there are about 30 parking spaces in each of the parking area. I think that should be sufficent enough for us!

Lettuce Lake Park will be easy to find, no hassel from anyone and there are also lots of motels right outside of the park that people are able to stay at.

A few things -

Spoke to Malibu Grand Prix, Courtyard Marriott, and also the Secret Service Dyno. Here's the scoop.

Malibu Grand Prix - $19.99
Which will include:
- 3 Indy Style Racing Laps
- Unlimited Go-Karting
- Unlimited Mini Golf
- 10 Game Tokens
They are open till 12:00 am on Sat. Which will give us plenty of time to enjoy our $20.

Secret Service Dyno - $45
- Approx 15 cars capacity for Sunday
- Includes 3 runs
- Includes Wide Band

Courtyard Marriott - $59.00 per night
I have called numerous hotels and motels, the Courtyard Marriott seems to be the best bet out of all of them. The hotel is located right of off I-75, which is one block east of Lettece Lake Park. They were not the cheapest, but they are the nicest out of all the hotels that I called. Motel 6, Super 8, Days Inn, hotels that are not the greatest are charging $50 per night for a group rate, which made my believe people are probably more willing to pay $9 more for a 5 star hotel.

Reservation information will be posted later on today.<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial[/img]You guys might want to post this on the ********************** board as there are several max guys active on that board who would likely attend.

I was going to suggest John for the dyno, glad you are using him.

Should make for an interesting trip over the bridge to his place!

[StealthmodeS14]

I'll be getting there a little earlier than most with my crew and we'll see what we can work out for the group shots.....in the process of e-mailing over 100 "Z" guys...hehehehe

...we getting ourselves in deep ****????...LOL

-Bill

[Spork]

hahahah! thats ALOT of food to BBQ!! hahahah

bring it on!

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Tell everyone the truth, I don't think Lettuce Lake Park will have too many options as to how we would like to park. I tried to look for somewhere that everyone could gather, with a decent size lot, without any hassel from anyone. Lettuce Lake Park was one of those places. There are plenty of parking spaces, but at the same time, there will be other people using the public grounds as we are.

Let's just have FUN. As for pictures, I will start thinking about a location where we all can cruz to, for the group photos. Suggestions anyone? In the area that we are in?

[Spork]

http://www.planb-attack.com/spork/FA_meet/home.html
make sure i have everyone on the list and crap and all the info on there is right...i know ih ave to hcange the dyno stuff....

[MaxType 240]

As I have stated from the inception, I want this meet to out perform the 1st one in Orlando!!!

To capture the level of success from the meet, we will need a dedicated few to perform as photographers.

As you can imagine, this will involve conducting a "site survey" of the parking lot & pre-planning (to a certain extent) how the cars will be lined up for group shots.
We'll probably need a dedicated shot for each body style too (240SX, Maxima, Sentra, etc).

I know these are nit-picky details but if someone has time to spare, we can spare some confusion prior to the BIG day images/icons/grin.gif
Definitely not a priority though...

[ 06-11-2002, 01:03 PM: Message edited by: MaxType 240 ]

[MaxType 240]

If we have cars grouped from the beginning, it'll be easier. Once the final roster is completed, we can have roughly appropriated "designated" areas. I agree it'll be tough, especially if we don't preplan.

Counting the days here in Mississippi...

Jesse

[**DONOTDELETE**]

OK, suggestion to Chris. It would be cool to actually group all different models by itself. Let's try to put the year, model, and style of the cars that are confirmed on the RSVP page. This will let everyone know what's coming and it will easier for everything to be set up.

[Zen Performance]

I'm definitely going, the location doesnt matter to me as long as theres enough room, I also have a performance shop in Lakeland and would be willing to help out however possible

I think that idea bout listing what type of vehicle is being brought by each attendee is great. I'll e-mail Chris with what I know most members have....some I don't know.

.....Having awesome response from the guys at Twinturbo.net after sending out e-mails.....have another four guys to add...all with TT Z cars....woohoo

I'll get that e-mail to you tonight Chris....

Later

Forgot to add...great to hear Eric. I suggest yourself and Ian from Lost Projects get together and come up with some possible goodies to offer...hehehe

Im gonna stop and get food and drinks on the way, Ill bring extras to share the wealth.

P.S. Jerry if you want to meet up on our side of the bay to make the drive together let me know.
I could probably meet you somewhere up on gulf to bay and we could take the Courtney Campbell.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Jerry,

I think that will be fine. Besides that, it will be a nice little cruz with it being close by.

The cruz over to the dyno on Sunday should be the best of all. Over the Franklin bridge, I can't wait.

No one's gotten back to me with the dyno thing. Anyone interested?

Let me know

PLEASE READ AND REPLY

Have seen a few e-mails with raffle suggestions. Will people be interested in having a raffle? This thing is crawling up on us, if we want things to start happening, we need to get more input.

So far, Wayne from Phase 2 has been very generous and has donated 3 set of pilot strut bar and 2 sets of Eastbear S13 sidemarkers for the raffle drawing. I propose, $10 per ticket. As usual, paypal will work fine. I hope everyone will be more supportive of this. PLEASE! Doing everything I can to get this meet more interesting for everyone!

Suggestions please!!

[**DONOTDELETE**]

what is the prize for highest dyno

[**DONOTDELETE**]

are you still dynoing at secret services

[**DONOTDELETE**]

The prize for the highest dyno will be a set of whiteline adjustable swaybars. I am not going to hold the dyno at Secret Services. They were not very easy to deal with. I have already setup an appointment for Sunday, July 7th at Race Related. They were very willing to help and give us a good deal!

So far, there has only been 1 car that's confirmed, but no payment. I will need 20 confirms in order to get the dyno shootout on the road. Please confirm ASAP.

[ 06-13-2002, 04:31 AM: Message edited by: Lost Projects ]

[StealthmodeS14]

Just another thought regarding the dyno Ian, should we split up the dyno sessions meaning having one for the 6 cylinder guys and another for the turbo 4 cylinder folks, ect....just a thought. Cause we could have a guy with an Sr powered 240 lay down a good number, but a Z car could come up and wipe out the competition with fewere mods......any thoughts on this??

By the way, you also know I'ma ll about the raffle.....any news from Enjku or the like yet???

-Bill

[Spork]

haha, how about a prize for hte lowest dyno too?! images/icons/wink.gif

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Donating -
- 3 sets of Pilot Strut Tower Bars
- 2 sets of S13 Eastbear Clear Corner Lights

[**DONOTDELETE**]

guys has the time of the meet on saturday been decided yet? i remember reading 3:00pm and also 12pm. IMO 12 would be better, been looking forward to seeing some of these cars in person for a while now. just want to have enough time to put names with faces before people start heading off to malibu.

also thanks to Ian and anyone else for taking the time to call around and organize this

[StealthmodeS14]

I wouldn't mind making the arival time start at 12:00.....I plan to be up there around that time anyways..maybe a little later. The sooner folks get there, the sooner parking will be gotten.

It's funny guys (kinda)...when I first talked to Ian we were real worried on not gathering enough folks. Needless to say were wondering if too many will show now....hahahaha.

-Bill

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Count me in Ian!

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Guys,

I am taking a little more time to get the site up and going. Please be patient, I promise it will be complete before the end of the day tomorrow. I am trying to make it nice for all!

Tell me what you think.

ThankZ, Ian I will inform the the ecza...

[hssaini]

Hey Ian

Nice site....

BTW, when you go and look out for exit numbers and such from I-275, I-75 and I-4, keep in mind that some of the exit numbers have been changed and are totally different from old exit numbers.

For example, An exit may say 237 on the board, and than on the side of the board it will give a another exit number under the heading old and a number, this will be the original exit number, old maps will show this and not new ones, as new ones took effect fairly recently,few weeks only.

Just to that you know....

RINKU

[**DONOTDELETE**]

I think we will actually start the BBQ at around 12:00 ish. Chris, MidniteJedi have offered to help me with the grilling for a while. He should be at the park at around 11:00. We will get everything up and going. It would be wonderful if more people are willing to help out with the grill. Don't know exactly how much we will have to grill, but I hope it will be enough.

[StealthmodeS14]

Site looks great Ian....couple of changes need to be made. If you see me on tonight or in the future..IM me and we'll talk.

-Bill

[StealthmodeS14]

I'll make sure the Melbourne crew stops somewhere beforehand and picks up thier fair share of food items to add to the pile:)

I too will also be there around 11:00 or 12:00 as well

-Bill

[RDM_II]

You guys have done a great job with this. Looks to be huge, can't wait.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Bill, I guess you guys decided to leave a little eariler then planned! Great! It's always better to have more people around. At least I won't be bored sitting there starting at 7 in the morning so we can have the best location!

I can't wait either, I hope this will start the trend of Florida Gatherings, making it an annual thing that happens, of course with a HUGE attendance list!

[MaxType 240]

Ian, the webpage looks better & better each time I look! Especially the growing RSVP list images/icons/smile.gif Didn't see any Maxima owners though, have they been notified?

Jesse

[StealthmodeS14]

Yeah Ian...decided to come up a little earlier to aid in helping set up.

I'll look into a Maxima board....got to be something out there....

-Bill

[gtr_240sx]

I`ll be there.

Juan. Maroon S13.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Right after I read the thread, I went to ********************** and put up a thread! We got the first confirmed Maxima for the meet.

Bill, you can be the designated parking attendant. hehehehe.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Juan,

Are the same guy that told Ralph I didn't know s~~t about my car? hehehehe.......

[MaxType 240]

Ian, Bill, consider listing the meet in the www.se-r.net (http://www.se-r.net) events section...
You guys are working the hardest! I'd help but I'm 600 miles away images/icons/frown.gif

[rockout]

Seems like things are moving along nicely in florida. On a bit of an OT level...i have something for ian zilvia.net topic (http://www.zilvia.net/f/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?s=3d0d649e16acffff;act=ST;f=4;t=9817 ;st=50) Ian you know what this is about. Get back to me ASAP or i'll have to take matters to the authorities.

[Una]

Okay, I got a question..
All yall down south wanna roll out as a group or what?
I think it'd be cool for all of us to meet up somewhere around the 595 corridor at around 9:30 or so, and just roll out on 75.

If yall would be interested, I can find somewhere to meet up, so we can all get gassed up, and roll out.

Anyone who's favorable to the idea, just make a note here, and shoot me an email so I know. (una1337@yahoo.com)

-Ed

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Maxtype 240 - Thanks!!! I've been trying to work on it every chance I get. The only thing that I have not put up is the directions page, once I get sometime, I will go and drive around and see what directsions I am able to suggest.

As for Maximas, I have not seen many that has registered, if any that is.

Anyone know of a ********************** type website? Let me know and I will go there to list something.

Thanks

[StealthmodeS14]

Ian...thanks so much for the designation...hahahah

UNA...great idea...get them damn Miami folks to join you. I know of atleast one guy that would like to make the cruise up with you seeing as how Kyle is coming up the night before to meetb the Mekbourne crew. I'll shoot him an e-mail letting him now.

-Bill

Edit: Jesse, I have shot an e-mail letting the folks at se-r.net about the meet (that's the way they do things)...they have chosen not to list it in the events section sooooooo...I tried

Well, Bill someone has to do the dirty work!!

I've put up thread at -

I hope we will be hearing back from there with a great response soon. We are up to 60 people/cars confirmed, some bring a couple of other cars along.

[StealthmodeS14]

I already posted on Alimas.net close to three weks ago...responses there sucks big time. My buddy (1fstaltima) that is coming to the meet, is attending an Altima meet in Cocoa next week.....he has lots of pull with those guys and he said he'll see what he can do.

And don't forget, I stillhave two more lists I'm waiting for from Rom Maddery and another in regards to the Z folks.......hehehehehe

OH, something I forgot to mention to everyone. This past Saturday, we went out to the local car shows (races), right in the parking lot, we gathered up around 15 S13s and one S14. It was cool with just that many, man, I can't imagine 50~80 cars............getting excited.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

PLEASE NOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please take note that the location of the gathering has been changed. We are no longer going to be meeting at Lettuce Lake Park , the gathering will be held at Lake Park, these are two different places!

I reason for this change is due to the overwhelming response, Lettuce Lake Park will not be able to hold all of us. Due to that, we chose a park that's a little bigger in SIZE.

Directions will be updated tomorrow. Please stay tuned.

Thanks

Hmmmmm.......should I e-mail folks regarding this Ian......I'd hate to have to send out umpteen e-mails to people, but tat the same time, know there are folks who don't frerquent the boards as often as most...

I'll send out e-mails to the Z guys......hopefully all the 2140 guys will check this....

-Bill

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Bill,

If you have a e-mail group setup, that would be cool to e-mail everyone about it, just to make sure. I've had a few people mistaking the two places. I will also note it on the website, so people will see it when entering.

Ian

[MiamiGrinch240]

I hit up NissanInfinitclub under an old thread I started there and I also hit up the 240sx.org classifieds advertising the meet.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Anyone know how to get a hold of the guy in Orlando that owns that Skyline? I have been trying to find a way to contact him, but no luck! PLEASE HELP

[StealthmodeS14]

Hmmm...don't know about that one Ian. I do know of another around Merrit Island that has a Silver R33.....along with a supercharged Q45.....I know someone that can get ahold of him. I'll keep you posted.

-Bill

[**DONOTDELETE**]

JUST HIT 65 RSVPs!!!!!!!

People, remember, there might be 65 cars confirmed, but this does not mean there's only 65 cars, there are numerous groups that are travelling together and only one person's RSVP'd!!!!

MAN, I am HYPE

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Long story, I messed up with rockout and have not been able to take care of it yet. I've e-mailed him about it already.

As for others, I really have nothing to say, started a groupbuy in the interest of the 240 community and it back fired, due to one guy's impatience. He couldn't wait for more then a day and a half and started to talk s... about my business. I was able to give everyone basically wholesale on Tein's, but this guy pays me and expected me to call him each and everyday to check in with him.......and so fourth.

That's basically it.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Added 2 more this morning. This is getting scary, almost 70 confirmations. But as always, it is never enough, keep on RSVPing people. Please do make sure, when you RSVP, make it a definite. If you are unsure for any reason, please do not RSVP, so this way I can get an accurate count.

Anyone that's on the list already, please e-mail me if for any reason you can't make it.

Thanks

[StealthmodeS14]

Ian...talked to Rob Maddery last night...said he hasn't been working on gathering folks due to work and mid-terms....I guess yiou've talked to him though.

...and one more thing guys...let's all pray our a$$ees of that it doesn't RAIN that weekend....PRAY PRAY PRAY!!!!!!!!

I spoke to him breifly, don't remember much that he told me, just that YOU (Bill) was talking sh~~!! I think I have my first illegal street race setup!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA. Watch out Bill, I am coming for ya!

But really, he said that he's been busy, but he does have a few people that are interested in coming down. Let's hope he brings a whole crew down.

I was also talking to someone via AIM, he said there's a s14 with a S15 front end conversion w/ a S15 motor swap that's also interested in coming. Anyone ever hear of this guy? I haven't, he suppose to be from VA.

Great News

As most of you should have read, Lake Park was not going to reserve any spots for us due to the 4th of July Weekend. After talking to them for the past 2 weeks, they are finally agreeing for us to use the entire back area of the park and also the BBQ shelter. MAN, that's good for me, I don't have to get up at 7 in the morning to go and fight over the place (actually Rob, President of the Florida 300ZX Chapter was going to the earliest out there).

[StealthmodeS14]

Talking sh**?????....hmmmm....hope you're kidding cause I'm not sure what you're talking about images/icons/smile.gif

Anyways, Rob just e-mailed me with a link to his 300zx site with links to the Tampa Meet page....we'll see how the repsonse goes.

I'm not aware of a "guy" with an S14 with Sr swap and S15 conversion. I do know Julia Phan with her S14 with S15 conversion, but her Sr is out of an S13...hmmmmmm.

Russ also told me he is close to convincing Dennis up in Atlanta to make the trip down as well....350 rwa hp on stock KA internals baby images/icons/grin.gif

Ian...look for me on AIM this afternonn around 5:00ish......how many spots is this back area they have reserved for us???

-Bill

oh and Ian..while looking at the updated version of the RSVP list I noticed that one person is listed twice..."Prelude2War" is already on thier...look towqrds the top. I had him listed as P2W..just a heads up...

They have a store front in Tampa as well, I imagine that's how they got the news.

[hssaini]

I had my TEIN FLEX put on at Tampa RacingZone and i told them about the meet.

Thats' prolly how they got the news out to orlando location

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Julia Phan will be attending the meet. But she's not the same person that I am talking about that's from VA. Maybe it was BS. Don't know.

[MiamiGrinch240]

There are a couple Nissans here in Miami that are nice but I just feel weird going up to someone I don't know and inviting them to a meet. I'll try anyway.

[irocsx2002]

Bill, we must find the latina hottie in the red 97-98!!!!!

[StealthmodeS14]

I'm well aware of that Rob......hehehehe....I'll extend (among other things) the invite when and if I see her....lol

-Bill

[StealthmodeS14]

Ian 'nother confirm on the Maxima board...not sure if you have his real name yet.

"Brighttothemax" White '97 SE Maxima...

...I'll send that e-mail I spoke to you about last night later on this afternoon..

Mix ups, location changes, etc... is usually the start of many problems that turn into something totally mistaken.

"because it looks like you can't even handle a business."

wtf is that, you don't know Ian then. Maybe you should come to the meet and get to know him before you make a comment like that. Oh wait, Ian might not be able to "handle this meet".

Well, again, have nothing to say. If you go back and read all the related articles on Zilvia, you may get a little better idea on what all went down. Don't just read something that's one sided, rather read the complete story. I am done defending myself. I have typed what I have to too many times, no need to do it anymore. For your info, money wasn't lost. Money's being refunded by my distributor, because the customer told me to forget about the order because he wrecked his car. He waited a while and was willing to wait. 2 month out of wait was waiting for a low mileage black top with a front end conversion, something that a lot of places are not able to get.

So, I am sorry that you will not be able to make it to the gathering.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Just wanted to tell everyone that's attending the gathering, sorry for all this talk about what I screwed up in the past. I sincerely hope that this do not put a handicap on the gathering. Like I have said in the previous posts, I did screw up and have taken care of everything, but people are not willing to drop what they have learned, even if they don't know the complete story, or have nothing to do with it.

[VikTurboZ]

DJ PLEASE COME.. i will be waiting with Bells on trust me.. If your stupid enough to say such idotic things like that without doing your homework.. then well you DESERVE to meet me. I know i'll have lots of fun if you do.

Ian is a great guy and I can speak very proudly about Lost Projects. They have provided me and my family with the some of the Best Prices, and perhaps THE BEST customer service i have seen in a long time. Infact i would be honored if Ian called me his friend.

So if your not too busy spinning some hot mixes with one hand up your A$$ , drive on up to Tampa for the meet... And Look for me.. But by the looks of your 1 post history, i'll prob find you by following the trail of jackass, stupid, childish, idiotic, and immature comments.

with hugs and kisses,

All right......

Thanks for the back up.....let's keep this thread on track!!!!!!!!!! If he's that concerned, he can come and meet me. I think I am generally a nice guy that screwed up, can't say that I have not. I guess he's perfect and don't know what it feels like to screw up.

[Spork]

man, im getting really anxious for this meet to happen! should rock!! if i do end up goin to hyperfest at the end of this month...ill have the opportunity to stop in south carolina for some fireworks (the big *** morter kind of fireworks, not the weak sparklers) let me know if there is enough room to do it at the park or somewhere else we can go..cuz it doesnt really get dark until like 8pm now...anywho, its late...you know how to get hold of me

-chris

[StealthmodeS14]

You'll have to forgive me for harping on this subject just once more.....forget the fact that this "Rockout" subject doesn't have anything to do with the organization of this meet. Face the fact that folks sometimes do make mistakes...I'm quite sure Ian has done his best to resolve the situation.

As for him being reffered to as a "crook"....explain that, seeing as how more than likely Ian will possibly lose money on putting together this meet. I've only spoken to Ian once on the phone and numerous times thru IM and just from that, I'm able to take away that he's a stand-up guy. I've done my fair share of trying any way I can to make this meet a succes, but what I've done pails in comparison to what he's done.....bottom line is that Ian has busted his A$$ off putting together this meet and I highly doubt a mistake such as the one he's made will prevent people from showing up......excluding one of course images/icons/rolleyes.gif

just a heads up....you won't be missed images/icons/grin.gif

-Bill

oh yeah, and Ian, who should we talk to when confirming the hotel room?? I called last night and Kristi has taken herself a little vacation...is the rest of the staff aware of the group rate we've been given??....just want to make sure.....Thanks!!!

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Bill,

Thank you very much for sticking up for me.

I just called over to the Marriott. When you call over there, there's not one particular person you need to talk too. Just tell them you are reserving a room for the Nissan Convention and they will know. Kristi was the person I setup the group rate with, but she's on holiday until sometime next week. MUST BE NICE.

Chris, fireworks.....that would be cool as hell. We will not be able to do it at the park, since there's quite a bit of wooded area and also since it won't be close to being dark. However, you can always get some and when I win my first race with whomever, you can light that s~~~ off!

[hssaini]

Hey all

This is for everybody.

If someone has a problem with Ian or Lost Projects, please refrain from ****in' into his other posts where its irrelevant.

People of community know what's going on that want to know both sides of the story. For peeps who just read one post from someone **********ing about Ian or Lost Projects should consider getting both sides of the story before commenting, let alone commenting in a post not related to subject. WHY NOT IM or EMAIL or better yet come to meet and have fun while you see the guy and have a better judgment altogether.

I have personally done some business with Ian now and it's a great experience. If i have to do it again, i will go thru Ian anyday for anything that i may need.

LASTLY, I just wanted to say that TAMPA MEET is gonna be awesome good and i wish peeps stop posting irrelevant posts under irrelevant topics.

Peace
RINKU

I had to respond.......don't know why..out of charcter to post OT crap in a thread..sorry...haha

Ian's a very nice guy. He's also the main reason this meet is happening. This whole meet was me and a friends idea 2 months ago, but Ian was kind enough to organize everything. So please stop giving Ian ****...

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Talked to Rex yesterday. He's the guy that owns the Silver R33. He will be attending the gathering, not just with his R33, but a few other cars. Looking forward to it. Directions will be up today.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Just hit 80!

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Man, I am really looking foward to this meet...
80+ cars And atleast one Skyline... Sounds good to me. I just wish my Z looked the way I want it to

HA......I too wish I had my car in tip top shape as well.....it was a couple weeks ago images/icons/frown.gif .....damn racoons.....I'm shooting for NOPI now images/icons/wink.gif

.....forgot to mention. Ian I called the Mariott and talked to some guy there to make the reservations..he had no clue of the group discount. He listed me at $59.00 anyways, but make sure you guys mention the Nissan Conventio......

So who all is donating to the event? There are several fees being charged to reserve our spot in the park. Contact LostProjects if you want to help this event happen a little smoother by pitching in a couple bucks.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Man, Vik's been bothering me about getting a party going since like day one! But, I also have a girlfriend, so that idea is out the window with me........

[PongAtari]

I'm up for a party, but no hos for me either.. ah well, they're nice to look at! I'll meet up with you guys too when you're riding out of South FL. 595 is actually a bit further south than I am, but it's no big deal (I'm between Commercial and Atlantic).

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Party.....hummmmmm.....

Here's the thing. When will the party be? If, everyone goes out to the races at night, we will be out till like 2~3 in the morning. Man, I am getting old, it's bed time after that. Bill brought it up, you should put up a SITE all about it, with sponsors and s~~~.....hahahahhaa

[Spork]

ill take anyones ho's if they dont want them images/icons/wink.gif
party would be cool..but we are gonna be out driving around late...can you imagine the caravan aroudn tampa we are gonna have? if you have a walkie-talkie bring it!!!

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Walkie Talkies is a an excellent idea. I have two walk-abouts. Man, I am happy with like 5 cars, can't imagine anthing over that, especially over 90....WAHAHWAAHHAWAWAHHAAA

Bill: You can stay up late don't be s pu$$y. Just tell yourself your gonna go play DDR and you will stay up hehe

I got some walkie talkies I'll bring them along.

[irocsx2002]

DDR!!!!!!!!

[Una]

Hmm..
Hows about we setup mini groups of like 5-10 cars, preferably with people that allready know each other, with everyone having a 2way radio (talkabout field radio style, not just a ratshack walkie talkie) to communicate, with each group on a seperate channel.

That would make orginization much easier, not to mention travel.
Imagine 90 cars trying to make a light.. I dont see that happening too well images/icons/smile.gif

As for the party, I cant imagine everyone wanting to street race for 5 hours...
I say those of us that want to party head back to the hotel, meet up in one of our rooms, we'll do a BYOB kinda deal, get drunk, and do whatever..
Im sure I'll have enough extra room in my trunk for some blacklights and such images/icons/smile.gif

N-e-wayz, tell me what yall think about those ideas..

hehe

i wish i could drift...no LSD and really sticky tires make it really hard to do...but i might have to bring along some spare tires just incase images/icons/wink.gif

thats a good idea of splitting into smaller groups...have locals lead us around to the various places...hey Ian...why dont we all go to that island place in the middle of that one bridge and have a lil "show" there for everyone...there is plenty of parking images/icons/smile.gif

for you people around orlando...we usually meet up sat. nites on e. colonial dr. (hwy 50) in the bennigans parking lot infront of the library at 10pm...all are more than welcome!

[StealthmodeS14]

I wasn't too worried about having a party per say anyways. I was just going to go back to hotel room and drink with some buddies. I'm all about some street racing, but we all know how gectic that gets running around all over town from cops......I'm just gonna play evrything by ear until I talk to folks at the meet....

-Bill

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Chris, over the Gandy Bridge we will go....hehehe. That would be a nice little ride, especially with all the cars that we will have. I am not all that into going to one place and then sit around for an hour. I'd much rather drive to all the spots that people hang out at, crash it and move on. Of course, that will be different for spots that actually have races going on. Hope all goes well.

[StealthmodeS14]

Yeah guys....we need to make it a point to hit up any other possible meeting locations that night...crash the party and then move on. What I wouldn't give to roll into rice hangout with a crew of 50+ Nissans....BOV's sounding off like a God damn marching band.......WOOOHOOOOOO!!!

-Bill

[P2W]

yeah make me one of those cd's ahahaha

[**DONOTDELETE**]

I can't wait till the Sat night, I can already feel it!

For get burnin CDs, they have those things that you can install now that makes any BOV sound you want, and it's suppose to be EN SYNC with every shift, I have them on sell for $350 (not really).

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Hey guys, I haven't visited this thread in awhile. WOW! Got big.
Anyway, I only have two friends with Nissan's and only one that might come (300zx). I'll be coming by myself most likely (from Palmetto) in my stock a$$ S13 HB. I wasn't planning on staying for the second day since I won't be on the dyno but it's sounding more and more fun. If I wanted to stay, could I get a room with someone? 60 bucks is a bit much for myself just to hang out for the next morning!?
Also, I have done alot of photography in college and as a hobby. I would LOVE to document the meet and take pics for eveyone. HOWEVER, my camera is out of service! If I can find one to use, I'll be more than happy to be the photographer. If I can get a camera to borrow,(hint hint) I can scan ALL the photos after the meet, and make prints for anyone who wants one. Dood, I can do individual pics and group pics, as well as an 'official meet pic!' Ooooooooh..
Oh Ian, make sure you change my info on your site. I'm john@digitizelife.com and drive a White '91 S13 HB. Thanks!

[StealthmodeS14]

Sounds good Jhon...I have a digicam and a regular, but can only take so many pics on the digi.....crap.

I'm sure someone will have one...we'll need tons of pics.....we need to find some way to get one huge A$$ pic of every car that came...groupshot...might be hard seeing as how the number of cars attending won't stop growing...hahahaha

-Bill

[**DONOTDELETE**]

John, already done!

If anyone wants any parts or anything, tell me and I will be able to get it for gathering.....shameless plug.....please forgive me.

[PongAtari]

Hm.. drunken DDR? Sign me up for a BOV CD too.. If I crank it and make "WSSSSSHHHHH" noises, I might forget that my car puts out a ground pounding 110 hp!

Oh yeah, if anyone has a place I can crash or wants to split a hotel room, let me know. sideshowjaime@gospeedgo.com. I ran out of cash because I went to all of the Central FL autocrosses last month. Oops.

[StealthmodeS14]

John R. Craig..meet..PongAtari...in regards to the room situation... images/icons/grin.gif

I'd share, but I already have three guys splitting up my room....sorry. If things really get desperate for places to stay for some of you, let me know, the tub is yours images/icons/wink.gif

-Bill

[**DONOTDELETE**]

LOL! Ceramic pillow... nice. I was just thinking about splitting a room... maybe I should meet everyone face to face before I go saying I will split a room with them huh? images/icons/smile.gif That could be scary... images/icons/shocked.gif
Anyway, so photo's are already taken care of? Ok, coo.
Oh Ian, parts? You mean from your shop? If you can give me a good deal on Tein HE's that would save me some shipping! DOH! images/icons/smile.gif That'll be my first mod to my 240! Wow, and you guys would all be a part of it.... I think i'm gonna cry.. images/icons/frown.gif

Lub you guys,
John images/icons/wink.gif

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Oh woops, forgot to mention I am bringing a friend. Bret - Black 96(?)300zx. I don't think we will be staying over-night. Scratch the room share for me! We will bring our own food and drinks. How neccesary is the pre-pay for Malibu? I will be happy to pay now if you think it's a must. Sorry, just trying to save for them Tein's!Tanks

[Una]

Heyyyy... Some of us dont have turbos remember.. images/icons/frown.gif images/icons/frown.gif images/icons/frown.gif

Well, I suppose I could burn a CD with some BOV sounds on it, and drown out everyone elses real BOVs images/icons/smile.gif

Now if only my mother would get home so I could pick up my 240... :/

-Ed

[StealthmodeS14]

Hahaha....just got word that "Greaser" from VA will hopefully be attending the meet as well...coming down with the Atlanta crew, so my room is now full......

.....8 more days!!!!

-Bill

[Una]

Damn Bill.. sounds like your room is a little overbooked images/icons/smile.gif
Looks like theres gonna be people sleeping in dresser drawers all japaneese hotel style. hehe

So, anyways, it looks like I get my 240 back at 8am!
With only 8 days left, it looks like I gotta do a LOT of work in a really short amount of time..
This is gonna suck.

I have to spraypaint my bumper, install my Diamond HEX 3ways in my doors, install my prokits and blues, and clean, clean, and did I mention clean? images/icons/frown.gif

This is gonna be a looooooooong week.

-Ed

[StealthmodeS14]

So am I to assume that the G35 is not being brought Ed????

-Bill

[Una]

Heh, well, Iv got the totally pimp system in the 240, along with all my mods and stuff,
And my bone stock G.

While the G may be much much much faster and more comfortable, I really see no point in bringing my completely stock car that Iv only had for a month, when I can bring my highly modified 240 that Iv put countless hours of labor into.

The way I see it, the idea behind the meet is to, well, meet everyone, show off what you've done to your car, check out what everyone else's done to their cars, and generally have fun.
You cant exactly show off the work you've done if you have a completely stock car, unless you happen to have designed it. images/icons/wink.gif

Now, if my G had a signifigantly higher towing capacity, It'd be a diffrent story images/icons/smile.gif
