Group Drive July 22nd (second to last sunday)

[DJButton]

Alright as we did with our previous drive up north we'll do the same with this one, meet up somewhere and then take a leisurely drive, except this time up the NH coastline. I'll post up directions on where were gonna meet but a couple great places come to mind.

Tentatively planning on bringing the grill as well so keep that in mind if you wanna bring some burgers in a cooler or whatnot, and also a few bucks if the best grilling place happens to be a state park, they are usually around $3 to get in.

Alright guys, the last drive was a blast don't miss out!

Here are some teaser shots from the last drive:

Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, my fault I know! Time I can meet is 12:30 I hope that works for you guys, sorry about that.Dan B

[Mouse6933]

holy poooooo those pictures are sick, maybe ill make the trip, i think its like 5 hours but those roads looks amzing

[jspec603]

Those roads were a blast! The roads on the coast won't be quite so crazy, but the views will be incredible! I really want to try to come along for this ride! As of right now, it's not looking good...

[DJButton]

Well the coast isn't as brilliant as the Kanc, but we have our share of good driving on the ocean. Anyhow, I'd book a room if coming from NJ, North Jersey is about 5hrs drive. Actually I was in Pensauken/Cherry Hill area all last week.

Tom, make it man! On another note, I gotta give you a call about a truck/trailer, got the cage for the NICO car gonna need to tow it up soon.

[Fenris]

I just wish i could trust mine on a road trip. Saw what happened last time... Should have her back on the road later today though.

[DJButton]

Yeah I know what you mean, mine went down last week when my fan attacked my radiator. Oh well should have it up and running again tomorrow! Good luck with yours Steve!

[eazye2000]

I'll be there as long as I can weasel out of work again. I'll put in for it now and see how it goes. Steve, I hope everything works out with your car man. That radiator should do the trick. I never had any problems with it that I can remember. And if you guys need anything for the Nico Car, let me know. I'm going to be checking into getting that trailer from my buddy, and see if my other buddy can tow it. I don't think my Blazer has balls enough to do it.

Lets keep this updated so we can get a head count. I'll see if I can pack a cooler with drinks or something for everyone.

[Fenris]

Thanks man, the radiator is in and works like a charm, but i was right, i prolly wont make this trip as i didnt even pass inspection. zer...id=44

[tiger-SE-R]

Lets keep this updated so we can get a head count. I'll see if I can pack a cooler with drinks or something for everyone.

I'm in for this trip too, and I can bring something as well, just let me know.

[DJButton]

Well so far just those who posted here are going, no other local guys to me are cool enough to do a drive.

Well I should be able to rent a trailer for the Time Attack beast from Tom, but uh find out what you can anyway Erik?

Tell anyone you know who may be interested though guys, brand isn't that big a deal any car guys can share interest in some way so whatever.

[BoBa524]

i'm in!!! never been to one of these in my life.

[eazye2000]

BoBa, are you the guy I picked up the S14 bumper up from a while back?The car in your sig looks familiar, but maybe not.

And yeah, I'm working on getting a trailer too. Tomorrow (Friday) I'm calling in sick to work to help a buddy out. And I'm gonna see about getting that trailer for you guys. I may only be able to get it for a weekend at a time, but it's something...

[DJButton]

Boba, how's that Kouki conversion holdin up! I'd love to see that brand new paint in person, hope you can make it!

Erik, don't stress yourself over the trailer though, I'm not too worried. If we need to move it more then once during the build stage that's when I'd probably want one though, we'll see how it pans out. Either way, good to keep it in mind, the NICO car will be appeased.

[BoBa524]

yup it was me! and i talked to u over aim yesterday. painjob is ok got a door ding already and a small scratch DAMN BOSTON

[tiger-SE-R]

I hope the weather is good for this trip

[DJButton]

So far supposed to be good I'll those who's number I have a call tomorrow afternoon at some point with meeting location, I'm planning on the time of around 12 noon next sunday to meet up. As it is right now I think meeting at the hotel off of the Portsmouth traffic circle would be best, It's right off of the highway and Route 1 comes right out of it to the shore, anyhow I'll let you guys know.

Boba, didn't talk to me on IM? Maybe someone else around here? Anyhow my IM is JDMcarsalltheway so hit it up if you'd like!

[jspec603]

So, I'm STILL trying to get to go on this ride... I'll be kinda upset if I can't.

Oh Dan...sig stealer!

[DJButton]

I hope you make man!

Yeah I IMed you the other day about my new sig, lol.

Boba, yeah you were talking to Tom, my bad.

[Fenris]

I just noticed that your car is described as semi-modded Dan, what part of RB20 is semi modded?

Im gonna order those ball joints/lower control arms tomorrow/later today and was wondering if i could enlist some nico help putting em in. (posting here cuz this is where are the cool people hang) ill buy the beer you bring the know how?

[DJButton]

Heh I like to keep it under wraps ya know? I'll probably still call it semi-modded when it has a Kouki front end, kit, slammed with 18 Equips or something. I'll say it has work done once the engine is built. lol

Sounds like a plan, let me know when the parts come in!

[eazye2000]

Yea, I'll help out too, 'Fenris'. Just let me know when you wanna do it. Work is a bish, but I can always call in.. LoL

[x240xdrifter]

hey guys, as far as I know I am in

I would like to possible meet somewhere in newington (just above portsmouth) that way we can drive through portsmouth ( and turn some heads ) and go down Route 1B which connects to Route 1A, and these will follow the coastline. I think we can grill at rye beach, I know there is some real good spots that are not parks. this is going to be awesome guys

[DJButton]

Ok, that works too. I'll try and get some directions penned out. Ok, I just did a bunch of searching and it seems the only way we'll get to really drive on a the beach alot is if we start down in Hampton and cruise up, that way we can follow the coast on 1a and have a good place to stop, Odiorn if nowhere else pops up on the way. Here's a copy of the post I made on 240sxONE:Alright here's the official scoop guys, meeting up at the north side of Hampton Beach and cruising north on 1A. Just follow 101 into town and at the intersection of 101 and 1A we'll try and park around there to meet up. I know right in Hampton on the beach but it's probably the easieast place to get to from further away. It's not far from 95 so that's good too. I think we'll end up driving north from there to possibly Odiorn state park unless we see a better place to stop on the way.

I hope that can work, it's simplest place to get to over all, if we met at the Portsmouth circle and went down it'd be a lot more confusing for anyone that hadn't already driven it. Think that'll work guys? Google Hampton Beach and you'll see where 101 comes in and where Rt. 1A is.

Hey, Dan. I like the sig!

I wonder who shot that pic for you guys??

[DJButton]

Yeah whatever, I had to edit cause someone had crappy camera skills. I did blatently copy Tom's though, cause I could.Have fun up in NH btw?

That spot is cool with me, I'll start up the food list, I'll bring a bunch of burgers for everyone. Some one is bringing a grill I read somewhere right? If not I'll bring something else.

[DJButton]

I have a charcoal grill/charcoal/fluid etc. so I'll let that roll around in the back, lol.

Mark, if you brought some burgers that'd be great, thanks!

I can probably pick up some soda too, but I figured you guys could just pick up whatever you preffered to drink. I'll bring some buns too if needed.

[tiger-SE-R]

I bought some burger buns today as well, so maybe someone can bring plates/napkins, someone else soda/chips, ect. We'll figure it out....btw weather is looking good for the trip, 83 degrees and sunny as of right now!

[DJButton]

Alright sounds great! Yeah I hope the storms blow thru by then, it's looking like they will!

[DJButton]

BUMP! Just a few days before the drive people if you're interested speak up!
