haha, it's not THAT bad. the roads are usually pretty clear. we had a mini s14 "meet" haha. i dunno if you can really call 3 cars a meet, haha. but yeah, we should have a meet. that'd be cool to see all the 240's that are around town.

I say we tenatively shoot for the 2nd weekend in April. I see 240's up here all the time and know of atleast 6 list members. We can meet at Wendy's or something and take a cruise down Ironto or one of the many other backroad twisties.

When you guys are talking about a meet at the Wendy's where would that be at. Will it be near V. Tech? That would be a hell of a drive for me so I would need more incentive (i.e. more activities other than hanging out)

I'll try to find out when the local autocrosses are gonna be.

That would be worth a trip. I have never auto-x before so it would be a new experience
we've got an autox coming up next week actually. march 9th in salem. a bunch of ppl from dragva are going (western dragva section). that might be a good time to meet up, but it's a bit early, since Tubed4evr was thinking 2nd week of april.

I think a good meet time will be in may or june, I should have my engine rebuilt by april(hope so). I think a cool meet would be some autoX(never did it before) or try to get a group discount at VIR(never been there either). Just some ideas/

FYI- you will not get on VIR without at least one year notice. (I think they are booked for the next two years)
The auto-x sounds cool. Also don't discount the fact of organizing our own events. Get enough intrest to where you could go to the area police and get our own little display of speed in a parking lot and have organized "Hooliganism".

Greaser
03-05-2003, 11:07 PM
100 an hour for the dyno....i'll see if i can get him to do 30 for 3 pulls. i'm sure there will have to be about 10 cars or more at least.
checking into it.

03-06-2003, 07:22 AM
What's the name of the shop? I would like to get an idea of how far Norfolk is from Springfield. Hopefully I will have a FMIC on and dyno at 14 lbs. My last dyno was @ 9 lbs and my actuator didn't hold and droped to 7 lbs so I only pulled 197hp and 205lb/ft.:mad:
Edit: I am shooting for 215-220hp:D ::set low goals so you won't be dissapointed::

Richmond here.
Only seen one interesting 240 in person, and that was in Portsmouth... guy with a stripped & caged red S13 coupe, SR20 on hellish boost, running on black steelies and S14SE wheels in the back. That sound like anyone on here? :)
hahah yeah thats my drag car.

Hey, I live in NC but I drive up to Va Beach to see my parents all the time(at least once a month). I'm actually probably going to be there this weekend. Saturday night will be my only night out though. So anyone around the area might want to meet up, hit me up. As for the meet, if it's in south VA I'd be down.
i just got off the phone with Shad from abacus.......for 10 cars 50$ for 3 pulls. He can talk to Chuck the owner and see what else for price. But thats 10 cars a day for this dyno. so it would be an all day thing.
Personally i've seen more than 10 go on a dyno in one day at the 2001 national convention , but this one is a drive up dyno not an inground dyno.
