Hey everyone, didn't get time to do the brake conversion, so I'm going to swap pads. I was also planning on doing a little maintenance on the car too. Do a couple of you guys want to meet at my house prior to th meet, let's say aroud noon to work on the car. If so let me know, I could grill up some goods . It would be cool if three or four want to meet up and then we could cruise up to the meet together.

-matt4pl?-underground57?d1sr240?

if you guys or anyone else wants to come out let me know. Maybe I'll also invite some of my non-nico buddies over too.

Hey Jon, I'm down. I don't know if I can make it by noon, but probably by 2 or 3. Just give me a call or email me with directions to your place.

Hey, here are the pics from the meet that actually came out. We should find a better lit spot for next meet. Maybe even a warmer day, haha. I didn't get a chance to take pictures of Jon's 240 and his friends' SRT4 and WRX before they left, but I think Matt got them. I missed a couple other guys too, but maybe next time.



I also wanted to say thanks to everyone that came. I had a ton of fun, despite losing the group twice, haha. I'd probably be driving around still if it wasn't for Daryl (I think that was his name), so a special thanks to him.

Meet was definately a good time. Sorry I had to cut out so early, my buddies were getting bored with all the 240 talk plus I somehow got the idea we were meeting at 6 instead of 8 so we were there a long time. Wish I could have been cruisin with you guys, but oh well. Steve, sorry we left you behind buddy. You'll have serious power soon enough. Anyways, good times. Definately should do it again soon. I know some of you are thinking next Saturday, but I was wondering if you guys were serious, if we could move it to Sunday? Let me know.

Good to see everyone had fun.Hope the Nico stickers were used on some cars..

PS: Board man does have a point this thread should been on Meets section. I was toying with the idea of moving it there but it had already gotten big and I didnt want this fledging scene to lose momentum.Lets check meets section more guys:)

I'm also just a few minutes from there! Some of the locals who usually don't come out to the meets use Bluff as their playground. A little scary if you ask me. We should meet up in the area whenever you come around.
