they aren't friendly! where i come from you can go out cruising and meet all sorts of people that want to know you but here they could care less. maybe i made a bad desicion moving here. even more so now that my G/F doesn't want to move down here with me so she is probably going to break up with me.

I'm nice. Most georgia "tuners" are royal pricks. There are a few nice ones though.

"not everyone is mean, just most of them" - so true.

I don't even bother too much anymore, people just think I'm weird when I flash lights or whatever in a stock-looking Sentra. When I see a nice car I usually give the driver a thumbs-up. If I ever happen to run into any fellow NICOnauts around here I'll definitely do something to get their attention. PTC is lame anyway.

To top it off they're hardcore drifter so I like to hang with them even more. Where the hell is stockbridge? I'm in Vining, it'll be cool if we meet up hahah

Not all tuners in GA are pricks, some of us are nice. I almost never see any modified 240's around, especially south of the city. There's going to be a small get-together in Peachtree City tonight, I'll let you know how it goes. Zion, myself, and the other folks down here are almost always up for meeting other local 240 owners.There's a lot of guys up north, mostly 240's Over Atlanta members, but I've been to one of their meets before... They're friendly enough, but they tend to look down their nose at people not in their group.

Yeah, I wish I could make it to the mini-meet here in PTC tonight, but it appears I'm stuck at home for the evening... hopefully it'll go well enough to have another sometime in the near future. Just you 240 boys this time :D.

Maybe. I dunno what the plans are for that night (did you know the fireworks are on the 3rd this year? They didn't want to have them on a Sunday!)... I'll see if I can show up, I'd think I could, but we'll see. Hopefully I'll have a new addition to the Sentra then too :D!

Anyway, hope it all goes well tonight.

Jaypat: Check your other thread here in NICO general, I gave you directions to Partners starting on Hwy 54, which, as I say in that post, I'm pretty sure ends at about Stockbridge, so it should be perfect. I don't think there'll be any girls, but I'm sure if you guys cruised up to Starbucks about a mile further up 54 you could find some (and some ricers to embarass :D).

Hey man, you hang out with roterheads too? Are you on the SE-RX7 mailing list by chance? I hang out with those guys often too. We just had a big RX7 meet at American Pie on Thursday. Were you there? (I don't own a 7, but am just good friends with a lot of them).

There's definitely a lot of haterade being drank around Atlanta. I usually try to smile or give a thumbs up to nice cars...

I give thumbs-up's to 240's in my mom's Camry. But sometimes I hafta go through the trouble of rolling down the window before I let my arm out, and by then, they would have already passed by haha. Though, I think all the 240's I've given thumbs-ups to were all girls LOL. What, nice car? Nice boobs? Can't see your boobs, so must be your car. Haha. Damn horny Chink! Yes, I know, but it's genetic.

Vining is boring. SO many stuck up pricks...seriously. They think they're so badass in their Porsche n BMW that their parents gave them for X-mas.

MysteryIncMan: I go up Barrett Pwky sometimes too. We should meet up ^_^. It's surrounded by posers.

Haha, Vinings sounds like PTC, I've heard Alpharetta is similar (and from a few visits up there, it is). Though, typically, around the PTC area the parents give them a Civic, Eclipse, Celica, etc AND money to rice it out, it pains me.

Hey Ragingpanda....you go up to Barrett? I used to hang out on Barrett, back in the day...back when it was cool. I don't think I've hung out there in about 2 or 3 years. But let me know if you go out there....I'm only 15 mins from there. I might meet up with you guys some night.

had a good looking tastefully modded s14 pass me the other day, ****sucker wouldnt even look at me so I could give him props, guess he was too good to waste his time on a stock s13. Was beside him for a good mile, checking his car out, that pisses me off. But you guys are right, there are ALOT of pricks here in Atl, just not all of us, I give props to all 240s. Xcept for the ricecrap. I heard barrett is just a bunch of rice, couple of my srt-4 buddies have been a couple times.

Barrett *IS* rice....that's why I haven't been in a good 3 years. When I used to go, it used to be cool. It used to REALLY be cool about 6 or 7 years ago. It was typical to see a few ferrari's, lamborghini's, NSX's, tons of vettes, insane power RX7's, etc, back then. Those were the good ol' days. Now if you got a stock sentra, you are one of the fastest guys out there anymore.

hahaha. That's so true man. Last friday i was waiting for my girlfriend to get off work in Media Play; tons of hondas start pulling in. WTF. A prelude tried n pulled the ebrake to impress his buddies but slide only 2 feet. I wanted to get in my car n show them a lil thing or two about sliding around, but it's a public area so i just kept on waiting.

My buddy goes and rides his CBR on some road next time I talk to him I'll find out. Barret has become a giant rice paddy, but some times there are some bad cars. ie. supercharged viper, real wheel drive focus, some bikes. One night awhile ago they had a nice little stunt show going on. Pretty cool.

We should all go and invade and drive the rice boys away.
