First Annual 2010 RB20 / RB25 / RB26 Forum Cruise

[RustspecS13]

Rustspec - Are you rocking the RB out?
Or a DD?
A couple guys are running DD's out there because the NRRBA is holding them down.

My daily is a s13 coupe with a dohc KA for now. The rb20 wasn't ready to swap in and be running and driving. But I'm still taking an s13 so its all good. Mainly I have no idea what boost my holset hx30 is going to put out so I don't want to run on the stock ecu, so I need nistune or a haltech sprint 500.

Unfortunately we are moving the shop again, so I will be busy until mid friday and its a 7hr drive to the dragon, so I wont be there untill 7pm-12am. No idea exactly when And the bosses 3 rotor FD doesn't have a single mile on it so it cant make the 1000 mile trip yet. (1000 miles from driving there and back and of course driving around while there).

D356bud - what time are you planning on leaving friday morning?

Ryan- I'm down for Blue Ridge Parkway.
As far as the other hotel events, I haven't even looked.
Definitely not running though... I'm lazy :-)

Some people were concerned about Hurricane Earl, but its projected path is going to miss us.

Northeast guys are probably going to be driving through a little bit of rain.
But I would try to drive out West then head south.

So i might not be able to come, or if I do i might need to leave early. We (my bosses and I) are moving the shop again, and our ex landlord/business partner is being extremely s***. As in he just padlocked our bay door. So we might be moving out this weekend....

[d356bud]

anyone see the crash this morning on the dragon at around 9am?

[Carl H]

i was told that it was brian (bradical) that wrecked this afternoon...was it a morning crash or were there two the same day?

[d356bud]

well the one I saw was between what I believe was a maroon? color car and a blue ford focus. The maroon car looked like it might have went over the double yellow and slammed into the focus. I have a vid from this morning but my camera girl didn't get a pic of the cars

[sickness14]

Carl,

Brian did in fact wreck early this morning. Car is totalled, along with the ford focus that he hit. he's ok, just a cut on his head. lucky guy.

[d356bud]

[Sil240]

I'd like to Thank NICO for bringing us all together & Everyone that came out this weekend!!
Everyone had a great time and we had a really good turn out as well.
It was really nice to finally put a face to the screen name after all these years.
Not only did we all walk away from this weekend with an Awesome experience, but we gained a group of great friends.

Big Thanks to Alex - Busy Badger.
The Huge Banner, Posters and Cards came out GREAT!!!


A special Thank You goes out to Ricky and the guys from Raw Brokerage, the Official Sponsor of the First Annual NICO Tail of the Dragon meet 2010.



I didn't get many pics or vids, but everyone post up your pics and vids.
