Bay Area Grant Ranch Final Information

[knghtryde]

:x:

Here we go guys, here's the information for the Grant Ranch Meet. The first one didn't have a huge turn out but I think it went well and I think we can make this one go a lot better.

Sunday, February 15, 2004, at 12:00 p.m. (noon).

Address: 3457 McKee Road, San Jose, California 95127

We will meet up in the parking lot at 12:00 p.m. There is an 8 Mile drive to the park. The drive is all turns so it does get pretty fun.

The first group of people will be leaving the parking lot at 12:15. The second group at 12:30. The groups will be no larger than 15 cars at a time. And we will shorten the time in between depending how many people show up. We want to have everyone at the park by 1:00 p.m.

It would be kewl if people could bring stuff, like drinks, meet, buns, chips, or other stuff for the BBQ. If you don't wanna bring stuff, help will be greatly appreciated. Also, there might be a parking fee of $2. There wasn't last time and I will go on Sunday and find out if there is going to be a fee this time, so that way you won't be suprised, but $2 bucks isn't anything.

Other than that guys. Lets do this and lets get a great turn out for this one. :rl:

[knghtryde]

I posted this on Club 4AG. I'm not registered to any RX7 forums but if you guys want, go ahead and post it on one of them. Hopefully this all goes good and everyone has a good time.

Please tell me if people are gonna be bringing stuff or you perfer for me to buy everything and people just help out at Grant Ranch.

Also, Who's Comming.

I really do want to invite the RX7 guys and the Z guys, but like i said I'm not registered at any of the forums besides Zilvia and Club 4AG. So if anyone is they can go ahead and copy and past.

[knghtryde]

Okay guys, for all the Club 4AG guys here's the link:

[GeeThreeFive]

I'll bring a bag of 100 paperplates, not cheapy. Are we going to need napkins and any forks? Bags of chip? I guess potato and macaroni salad would need to be on ice.
And everyone pray it doesn't rain.

[GotDriftS14]

i guess i might go. even though my rear shocks are blown i should be able to handle some bumps....we'll see...


are any of the "veteran" NorCal240SX people going??

[fliprayzin240sx]

Ray... I can get you a fully rebuilt one for about 500 with your core, also regearing the 5th gear to pick up higher speeds, and excelerate better...
Well if i cant find a used one then, imma have to have it rebuilt. The only thing that sucks is that imma only need the damn thing for bout....6-8 months till i go SR. Im trying not to drop any more money on this damn KA. If i get this damn thing rebuilt then imma HAVE to try to sell the setup when im done with it jes to get some of the money back. I was jes gonna give the damn thing away...

[knghtryde]

Ray... Shit.... I wasn't thinking... You cannot use a different Tranny... you have to use the Tranny for a 97 or 98 cause of the daym OBDII sensors in the fucking Bell Housing.... I didn't realize that till I tried throwing a 97 Tranny on an S13...

[stocked86]

maybe we could get a list going? people should state what car they're bringing and what essentials... that way not EVERYONE brings drinks.
for example:

Rick
1985 Corolla AE86
Drinks (HAHAHAHA)

[Ghst 01]

Heres my info:

Alfredo
1996 s14 zenki/ or my 2002 Accord SE if i can't get the s14 out of the shop in time.
Drinks and chips.

[Var]

Var
1990 ford probe..damn!! i mean S13

[knghtryde]

David

A bunch of shit since I'm hosting... LoLz

Hey Var don't worry about the Grill I'm reserving an Area for this so we won't have to worry about those crappy as grills I used last time.... The reserved Areas are nicer, and hey everything is Green Right Now...

Anyone Have a Valley Ball Net?

Can anyone Bring a Foot ball or SoftBall Equipment?

If no one says anything I'll go buy something. Lets do an all day thing here... LoLz

[Ghst 01]

So is this a non-alcholic meet/BBQ?

[knghtryde]

Yeah I think we should keep it that way to be on the safe side...

[Ghst 01]

Ok kool, just wondering.

[hiryu]

ill find out if i could go tommorow or not, the job interview. But i could bring a football if i come

[z_boi]

Hey day, can i jus throw some cash ur way, I never know wat to bring anyway.

[kazuo]

are any of the "veteran" NorCal240SX people going??

Sup foo! I'mma be there prolly...

Will SECOND STAGE make an apperance? Maybe... :rawk:

I don't know if Danny or any of those other heads are goin... call up Ben, tell that foo to come. hahaaha

See you there man

[fliprayzin240sx]

Ray... Shit.... I wasn't thinking... You cannot use a different Tranny... you have to use the Tranny for a 97 or 98 cause of the daym OBDII sensors in the fucking Bell Housing.... I didn't realize that till I tried throwing a 97 Tranny on an S13...
ah fawk...i was scared of that....I posted up in the couple forums to see if the plugs would be different and you just answered that Q!!! I know mechanically it would work but the fuckin OBDII BULLSHIET...tell me that when i go SR that all these OBD crap will go away!!! So now I gotta look for a 96 and up DOHC tranny!!! *imma go hang myself now*

[GeeThreeFive]

I picked up a stack of 100 plates today. I'll make 50 cupcakes (gotta have dessert)
Are you BBQ hotdogs or hamburgers? Do you need mustard & ketchup?
X-tra ice chests & ice?

[Salty_X]

Hey guys, Nightwalker/mechaniac/blah just told me about this. I haven't been out to any meets yet so I'm going to try and be there for this one. :coold:

Person: Goofy white kid named Tanner :D

Just bring what you want or what you can. I'm buying some hamburgers and hot dogs, someone said they where bring mexican steaks. If only the peeps that have responded are showing up that's about 40 to 50 cars between the 2 forums. I was hopeing for more but after a count of people who said they where definately coming, that's all I got.

[Ghst 01]

Shit i dunno how to cook! i might just bring a party platter of chinese food. hows that?

[knghtryde]

AutoRND will be at Grant Ranch Selling Tien Stuff, such as tie rods, tension rods, and they have a set of S14 springs.

[dvdevo]

wow.this meet is gonna be cool.

[Var]

sorry to go waaay off topic but phase2motortrend has a combo deal for :

Tein pillow inner tie rod and Kazama pillow tie rod ends for 250 bucks.

what do you think?

[Ghst 01]

Thats sounds like a good deal right there.

[Var]

For anyone that's interested i have a set of powerstop crossdrilled front rotors for an ABS s13. they wont fit on mine, i payed 120 bucks for them i will let them go SUPER SUPER CHEAP. Brand new.

[ghostuss]

crap crap i want to go but I got pick up my dad on sunday at the airport. I will go if I get that done before 12 :hsdance:

[AutoRnD]

yup we got 5 sets of like tein tie rod n ends for s14/s13
and like 4 tc rods for s13
and 1 set of tein s tech springs for s14..
yaya!!!! everyone should bring lots of cash
yay!

[GeeThreeFive]

Unless the food really isn't that important, this is what I sugguest.
Let everyone know

This is what will be needed:

Briquets - Lighter fluid
Tongs & Burger Flippers
Squirt bottle (for flare-ups)
Foil (to keep warm and cover leftovers)
hotdogs & buns
Hamburger patties & buns
Ketchup & mustard
Chips, pretzels, cheetos, etc....
Cups & napkins
Paperplates (I will bring 100)
Spoons, forks, and knives
Sodas
ice
etc........

Anyone with an ice chest try to bring it.

Have everyone volunteer to bring something off of the list and that you are counting on them to bring that item. If they would rather donate $ to let you know. As people volunteer they can see what needs to be brought and what doesn't. It sounds like it won't be to convienent to run to the store otherwise. Just a suggestion.

[Var]

Hondas Welcome as well.

[Ghst 01]

[autobahNESSA]

David -

This will help us all a lot.

[knghtryde]

So the things that haven't been claimed....
1. Ketchup and Mustard
2. Extra Paddies and Buns
3. chips
4. anything anyone wants to bring.. LoLz...

After that we should be covered... and Like I said before if you can't think of anything to bring you can always just help me out once you get there.

I am bringing, the charcol, lighter fluid, some drinks, some paddies, etc. etc. etc.

[knghtryde]

OH and to make sure that nobody tries kicking us out or telling us that we can't be there I reserved a section of the Park.

We will be in the Rose Garden Area. It is designed to Allow 150 cars. So we are garanteed not to have any problems if alot of people show up.

Lets just get people there and have a ball. This should be really fun.

[Var]

[Ghst 01]

[knghtryde]

[knghtryde]

Okay... Okay...

Anyone who misses me has issues, or misses my car. I have a Red S13 with a Red "Team Knight Rider" sticker on my rear window.

Anyone who misses my brother same story. He has a Black S13 with a Silver "Team Knight Rider" sticker on the rear window.

Sounds like a good idea, but like my good friend Edwin always says, it's not how you stand by your car...
So how will people know who I am when I'm not posing by my car? Maybe we should wear nametags... :D :loco:

BTW Westborough, how do you like that Autopower cage?
I've been thinking about getting one, depending on if I can decide which part of the car to do next... :ughd:

[nightwalker]

Hey Salty, nightwalker is mechaniac. mechaniac is nightwalker. Also check out the tech section for "Hicas sway bar impressions" I just installed Tein HEs, whiteline sways, SPL RUCA, and cusco strut bars on my cousins car. All at one time! Insane! He has too much money. I had to take my time with my stuff. :wtc:

[Salty_X]

Hey nightwalker, I was wondering what kind of settings on the HEs you run for highway driving? I've been on 6 from the hardest and it's great for in-city, but kinda sucks ass for the highway. Just wondering how yours are set. :)

I want to caravan with the sac people. We just need a location. If you are coming down I5 I'll meet up with you in Tracy. If you are coming down 99 I'll catch you in Manteca. Just let me know what time and where.

[nightwalker]

Hey nightwalker, I was wondering what kind of settings on the HEs you run for highway driving? I've been on 6 from the hardest and it's great for in-city, but kinda sucks ass for the highway. Just wondering how yours are set. :)

I have mine set at 5 clicks counter-clockwise from the hardest in the front, and 6 clicks counter-clockwise from hardest in the rear. It's a nice ride with some stiffness, but not harsh. I have the rear of my car gutted so you might want to take that into consideration. My cousin's car which has full interior is set 4 clicks counter-clockwise in the rear. The weight makes a difference. You can go one click or so more all around for a softer ride, but not too much because it starts feeling underdampened.

[ghostuss]

ahh, I am gonna post something that probably don't belong here. But I am getting :hyper: :bash:
Does anyone know where I can get a reliable SR swap done around san francisco area or within 30 minutes driving distance? My budget is around 3k like including the engine and all. Let me know plz, plz >.<

check rcrew racing

i've been reading that they are the best in the bay area

i just got my ride and it came with HE's - i adjusted mine, its 6/6 F/R i think from hardest - and it sucks for city and highway driving

is there any danger in setting it softer??? my car is lowered like 2 inches i believe, so take that into consideration

[Zoom8112]

also, i may not be making this meet, because of the driving clinic in redwood city

[JtWo]

If BAS go's......there WILL be a fight....

[CustomS14A]

I all most forgot about this meet but i guess i can bring around boxes of mac and chees but i guess ill cook it first.

Try "R - Crew Racing. 415-467-2246. I am not sure where they get their engines though. I know they just moved from SF to Brisbane so they are waiting on their permit. Seem like cool guys though.

[criquinha942]

If BAS go's......there WILL be a fight....


OK, so I might get blasted for this one. However, I am wondering what this scene is really going to be like. I am 32, have a wife, 2 kids and one on the way. I love my car but I love my fam more. Is there a possibility of violence or will people be cool. I am new to the area, and am just lookin for some guys with the same passion to hang and talk with. I would like to bring the fam as they are into the cars as well.

[stocked86]

if the weather doesn't cooperate... what's the deal?

[nightwalker]

I think the guys are joking about the fighting. Everyone that I have meant at the meets were all really cool.

There's really like 24 steps, but you should never go past 16 steps starting from the hardest (full clockwise), doing so is not good for the coilovers. So as long as you stay within the last 16 steps you'll be fine.

I'm with you man, I don't have a wife or kids to bring but if the shit start's hitting the fan I'm gone. I'm not driving an hour and a half to brawl with some Supra guys for no reason, I'm just going to hang out, meet some people, eat some food, and whatever else is planned...

Is there a possibility of violence or will people be cool. I am new to the area, and am just lookin for some guys with the same passion to hang and talk with. I would like to bring the fam as they are into the cars as well.

This is the second time this meet has been organized. I went to the first one, and everyone there was really cool, and we just had a good time talking about cars and having a BBQ. Looks like it'll be way bigger this time though.

[Salty_X]

BTW so everybody knows, I'm bringing 2 12-packs of Coke, 1 of Sprite, 1 of Sprite Remix, and 1 of Doctor Pepper, so 60 sodas total. If you don't like any of those I guess you can bring what you like (or maybe somebody else is also bringing some other stuff), and you can just throw them in my cooler if you want... :)

[Var]

The driving clinic is gonna be whacky. you guys have any idea how much traffic woodside gets on sundays? you're gonna be going way too slow to have fun.

[Knuckles]

to all the sacramento heads i made a post if you didnt see it for a caravan!

[GeeThreeFive]

Even though I have a map off of microsoft maps I would like specific directions going south on 680, please and maybe a cell # of someone who knows exactly where we are going. Thanks.

[asdf54]

Even though I have a map off of microsoft maps I would like specific directions going south on 680, please .

-680 S.
-exit Mckee heading East, so to your left
-go straight past White Rd.
-Keep your eye out on the left side for the shopping center before it hits Alum Rock

[neevosh]

Is it gonna cost $2 to park?

[NinjaGaiden]

Is it gonna cost $2 to park?

We'll find out when we get there. $2 for all day is not bad.

[GeeThreeFive]

-680 S.
-exit Mckee heading East, so to your left
-go straight past White Rd.
-Keep your eye out on the left side for the shopping center before it hits Alum Rock
My map shows that White Rd. is about half way between 680 and Alum Rock Ave. Is the shopping center before Toyon Ave?

BTW, is there anyone over 19 yrs. old going to be there? Because I am going to feel really old if there isn't.

[Salty_X]

Fun event... It was nice to meet everybody, grab some food, and just hang out and have a good time.

The drive from McKee to the park wasn't too bad, I didn't soften the damping in the front enough and understeered around a semi-bumpy turn and dropped the bumper off the road and busted the front lip a bit. Luckily I brought zip-ties :D After turning the fronts down some more though the drive back was sweeeeet!! :naughtyd:

It was real cool to meet you Nightwalker, hit me up next time you're in Modesto. :)


P.S. - Y'all some thirsty mofo's!! :mepoke: :D

[srpowereds14]

Yea the meet was cooo but we got there alittle late.... what happened to everyone as soon as we finished eatin everyone juss bounced :confused:

damn, my mac and cheese was gone within seconds :p , but anywho, nice cars everyone and thanks for throwing down a hundo for reservin the spot and organizin a sick event knghtryder

-ken

[stillmatic]

SaltyX, much props for bringing them sodas man.

The meet was cool. Good turnout except for the Honda folks who got their by word of mouth and talked sh*t about other people's car... Well, somebody hit my rear end on the way down :x: and I think half of my brake fluid evaporated..

David, they're talking about geethreefive post up above.

[nightwalker]

nice to meet you too Salty. You've inspired me to buy some decent wheels for my ride. I have 12 different wheels, but they are no where as nice as yours (probably because they're all curbed and scratched). Would of tried to chase your a$$ down the mountain, but my car was not in shape to be doing any kind of handling. Glad I made it home without popping that tire *sigh of relief* Also wanted to say that your car looks nice going down the freeway, doing what I call >the race car bounce< SWEET!!! wish my car bounced nice and smooth like that, must be the suspension ;)

homeboy that hooked me up with the jack, are you on Zilvia? I'm the guy with the really worn out front tire. THANKS a MILL for helping me out!!!

I had a good time everyone, just tired because of the long drive home. :w00t:

[ZK]

Nice to meet all you guys there. Had to leave before the food got cooking but saw some pretty clean rides and the snacks and soda was pretty cool too.

On the way back had a little Initial D action going on with someone in a red Hachi-roku... damn corners, no where to boost! ;)

Major props to the driver, not once did I look back and not see him in my rear view. I couldn't concentrate on the road, lots of pressure having someone tail you the whole time you are trying to pull away. :)

[brwnrice]

nice to meet some zilvia.netters today :wavey: did'nt experience any negative attitudes so it was a positive meet for us evo guys. saw some dope silvias and hachi roku's make sme wonder i didnt buy one of those cars. sorry if us evo guys left early because we had some other things to do like go to speedring (indoor go-kart). we have a meet on feb 28th and you guys are invited.evo meet (http://www.norcalevo.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=256)

[Knuckles]

first of all let me say :wiggle:

nice meet! i had lots of fun!! great turn out! next time we all need to go on a drive :hsdance: ....man i havent seen so many RX7's in a loooong time i was very impressed! and the drive to the spot was dope! gave me that mushy feeling when i was driving around all these dope rear wheel driven cars! :faint:

hope to see you guys again at a next meet :sadwavey:

Sliding Free...

[neevosh]

Thanks to all the people that brought food. I had fun hanging out with the people I knew and meeting a few new ones. And boooo to the whoever was speeding around in front of the ranger station and pissing the rangers off. Makes the rest of us look bad. And I hope whoever fell off the road made it out alive.

Any meet where I don't get pulled over's a good meet.

[Andrew Bohan]

to the guy who paid my $4 parking fee: i'll get you next time bro! :bow:

for some reason i think the first grant ranch meet was more fun. maybe cuz it was more intimate, or maybe just cuz it was the first one. anyway, this one was fun too. we should do it 2x a year i think. thanks david! :bow:

here's my new favorite corner:

[dragndrifter23x]

Did anyone find a black baseball cap? lolz, it flew off when I was trying to flip off Chris in front of me and slideways during the drive on the uphill =P haha. Stupid me! The meet was pretty tight. Thanks a lot to the guys/girls that bought food and "sausages". My wiener ripped in half, lolz. Hope we could do another meet like this some other time :bigok:

[Var]

I didn't soften the damping in the front enough and understeered around a semi-bumpy turn and dropped the bumper off the road and busted the front lip a bit.


sorry to hear that. almost happened to me last time, i made sure to stop at the save-mart and turn the dampening to soft in the front. dont say i didnt warn you guys

On the way back had a little Initial D action going on with someone in a red Hachi-roku... damn corners, no where to boost

that was probably my friend rossi.. lol he said you were boosting hella hard on the straights but his 20 valve was keeping up...those turns can be intimidating for s13's--> mad understeer while the corollas showed some oversteer and as usual, endless front traction..i'm gonna buy one today.

[thaiger77]

Hey,
I agree, this meet turned out to be really cool. I came with the rest of the Travis A.F. crew. We got there a bit late but just in time to grab a bite. Too bad there 's a few dumb asses who ruin it for the rest of us by racing in the park. Anyone heard about some guy that flip his car down the cliff? Damn! Sucks to be him.

[Knuckles]

dam the red corolla had a 20v! and i didnt even see it...ah well next time....

[GeeThreeFive]

The only Infiniti but had a fun. Everyone was friendly and hungry. Good thing, nobody seemed to mind the smashed cupcakes.
Pics:

[CustomS14A]

there were cupcakes?

[AutoRnD]

yeah , they got eaten up fast....
the food was gone in no time..
one day.. i will actually bring my 240 to a meet instead of it just sitting here at the shop collecting dust,

[sLiDewAys]

im sayying, haha THERE WAS* CUPECAKES? anyway, next meet like this i say everyone pitches in. I REALLY DO APPRECIATE THEM WHO PROVIDED! buyt if everyone pitched in there wont be any HUGE swap meet by people hovering over the grill wondering who gets the first SAUSAGE:)

[lhracer05]

hahahaha, hell yeah man, my windshield whiper dance was the pimp shizzle for rizzle! j/p. i have no clue where it came from. me and dragndrifter23x just started doing in. RANDOME SHIT, but thats ME! lol :$

[Salty_X]

sorry to hear that. almost happened to me last time, i made sure to stop at the save-mart and turn the dampening to soft in the front. dont say i didnt warn you guys
Nah it's cool, I just replaced some of the broken zip-ties with new zip-ties and it was good to go. :D

I remember thinking that I should turn them down further in the front, but then I figured I wouldn't be driving that hard with the coolers in the backseat... but once you get going... :p

[dvdevo]

bwhahah brandon's sausage got jacked right after he put it down .

[sLiDewAys]

anyone want to donate to project ca18??? lol

[z_boi]

meet was pretty koo. I almost hit the wall on the way up. thanks to my suspensions. hahah only had time to put in my illuminas up front. Then my rear end got loose so i was good. ahhaha Good thing it was a left turn, left turns are the shizzle wit open diffs. Stupid me put the shocks on 3 on the way up, dunnoe y i did that. hahah then had it bak on 2 on the way down. The drive was fun! I've never seen soo many houngry people. hahah. But yeah, lookin forward to the next meet.

[dvdevo]

They Honnngry

[nightwalker]

btw, on the way up, I saw a black hat to the right near the cliff's edge right after you pass the entrance to that community.

That'd be me.

that was probably my friend rossi.. lol he said you were boosting hella hard on the straights but his 20 valve was keeping up...those turns can be intimidating for s13's--> mad understeer while the corollas showed some oversteer and as usual, endless front traction..i'm gonna buy one today.

20 valve? Pretty nice! My suspension was bottoming out on the corners, road definitely too bumpy and some understeer too. I gave up in the end, I kept pushing harder on each corner and I didn't want to end up going off a cliff or something. Was definitely fun though. :)

[lhracer05]

SALTY-X man, those are some dope dope rims....everyone was checkin them out, nice and clean

[sLiDewAys]

OOH HUSH MAN, JUST HUSH haha j/p. man. aghh. so what was the deal with all them fire trucks and ambulances going up the hill. i never got a strait story about that!

[GeeThreeFive]

I left right after the fire trucks went up the hill, and they were in front of me going down. So they didn't stay very long wherever they went.
Why has David been so quiet, he hasn't said anything? His brother went to the store for ketchup and mustard, but everyone left before he got back.
Oh yeah, I counted 80 cars while everyone was up at the bbq. I don't know how many left before that. Did anyone not come in the gates because of the cop?

[Andrew Bohan]

what the hell was up with that sheriff anyway? we're paying $4 to get in, and he's checking id's and giving out tickets and warnings? gee, thanks.

if there were 80 cars there, that's $320 we gave them just to get in. they don't need to be handing out tickets too.

if i'd gotten a ticket i woulda just left.

[BlackRyder]

geethreefive your car is the bomb :bowdown: if you get your supercharger in it i want to see it i don't no if you remember me but im davids bro

whats the story did someone really fall down the cliff or not & if they did were they with us :duh:

[driftcrazy]

yea this meet was surely tight, besides the fact we got there like nearly to the end when most the cars were gone :cry: . but i had things to take care off. But it was tigth for the time we were there. Props to david from dave lol. But besides that peep who dont come with the right mood to meet new peeps should not show period and also the other peeps who started to act stupid on the roads need to be more considerate about peeps who r jus trying to have a good time


but beside the morons the meet was loads off fun hope we have another one soon, (which i can come on time too, lol) thanks again david :bow:

[stealthj]

hahahaahah my car is in no pics

but it was fun speeding down the moutain with the top down....

till it started to rain...

[knghtryde]

Okay, someone asked why I'm so quiet. For those who don't know I'm the one that organized this entire thing.

Nobody new about the Sheriff, apparently he saw the line of cars coming up and decided the check it out. Yeah, I got pretty steamed about that.

Second thing. They told me when I reservedt he spot and paid the 135 bucks that parking was only going to be $2 dollars not $4. I don't know why they changed it on us.

Third thing. Final Count was 97 Cars before linda's Count. And 15 more cars after Linda left. So that makes the meet haveing a total of 112 people showing up. That's a great turn out.

Third, the drive after the event had to be canceled, seeings how people decided it would be smart to Drag Race right outside the front gates. Where the Rangers post was. The rangers came to talk to me cause I'm the one that reserved the space. They are now gonna be on look out for a few weeks with Radar guns. DID EVERYONE NOT CATCH THE FACT THAT IN SANTA CLARA COUNTY THE RANGERS ARE SHERIFFS. THEY ARE ACTUAL SHERIFFS. They can give you a ticket and arrest you even outside the park.

Besides this, it was actaully a really kewl meet, I'm glad that so many people showed. I'll let you guys know if there will be another one and when it will be held.

112 cars give or take a few is a sweet turn out for a meet, and it was pitch black out before everyone finally cleared out. Some of us headed over to my house afterwards to have a couple of drinks, smoke a bit, and sit around a fire.

So for me this meet didn't end till about 11:00 p.m.

[Var]

dave you rule. hope to do it again sometime.

[knghtryde]

Like I said. We'll see. But if I go on the Twice a year thing. It won't be again till September. Same as last year, but hey it' worth the wait. If I do it any more frequently than that I'll go broke. LoLz.

[Knuckles]

Truly a great meet,good job David....if you have another meet ill be more than happy to travel from sacramento again kawz that meet was the BoMBiZZeL!!......haha... :wiggle:

[driftcrazy]

yea the meet was really good david, sorry but we had to cut after getting gas cuz of some business came up lol. but fo show holla when the nex meet is up. i ll bring my 240 fo sure lol

[D1drifter]

gotta say.....the meet was pretty awesome. Food was good as well. It was pretty funny seeing a bunch of people gather around the BBQ pit waiting for the burger patties...LOL. The turnout was great. Pretty cool to see that many cars in one parking lot (exept for the civic owners and their BIG egos). :rl: The drive up to the ranch was fun. Going back down on the other hand was..........What was up with all fire vehicles? And thanks to s13chica for lending me 2 bucks for the parking fee. Hopefully the next meet will be as great as this.

[kazuo]

That'd be me.

Sup man,

Whereabouts in the Bay are you from? Your car's pretty sicc, super clean.. I likey. =)

See you around

David, did you have to pay the $135 out of your own pocket? If you did that doesn't seem fair. Next time let us know what you need to help out. With all those cars there if everyone would have pitch in $2 it would have paid for the reserved area and some of the food.
I didn't know anything about the problems you had, when I left everything had went great.

[fliprayzin240sx]

Hey I didnt see my car in the pix either!!! No wait its in the fuckin garage with no muthafuckin tranny!!!

I am actually in the Sacramento area (work sucks :( ) but in SF a lot since I grew up there and lots of friends and family there. My car is actually my daily commuter and I drive 80 miles a day on it. I try hard to keep it clean! :)

[TodaAE86]

If you guys wanna know about the fire trucks, they were going up the hill because of a small cabin fire. at first I thought it was someone that fell off the road. That would suck :eek3:

[thaiger77]

Hey I didnt see my car in the pix either!!! No wait its in the fuckin garage with no muthafuckin tranny!!!

Hey Ray,
Don't cry man. U'll get yourself an SR soon. Or hey, you can always pitch in some money for my SR swap then you can have my KA motor and tranny too. ;-)

[kazuo]

Art, you wheren't at the meet where you.

Nope!

If i was there, EVERYONE would have known. :D

[knghtryde]

CustomS14A,

PM me and we'll talk it over I'll get those things installed for you. Also, wanted to know what you're doing this weekend.

PM as soon as you get a chance Late.

[knghtryde]

Hey Linda,

It's not a problem. I didn't have a problem until the rangers showed up to chew me out about the idiots drag racing in front of the station. Over all the meet went as I expected.

I'm sorry for the delay with the food, when I got out of the grocery store there where more people at the SaveMart so I had to stick around and wait for them. No biggie though.

And for those that care, I got my car working the next morning. It wasn't the blow off valve. One of the vacumm lines fell off and I didn't notice it before the meet so I had to leave my car home.

[CustomS14A]

The shop was closed from 8 through 9 so i came back home and for this weenend im open for ideas because i dont work weenends.

Hey Linda,

It's not a problem. I didn't have a problem until the rangers showed up to chew me out about the idiots drag racing in front of the station. Over all the meet went as I expected.

I'm sorry for the delay with the food, when I got out of the grocery store there where more people at the SaveMart so I had to stick around and wait for them. No biggie though.

And for those that care, I got my car working the next morning. It wasn't the blow off valve. One of the vacumm lines fell off and I didn't notice it before the meet so I had to leave my car home.

David,
Anyway it was a great meet, look forward to seeing at the next one. Maybe you can find some time to relax and visit with us for a while.

[SilviaNinja240]

Thanks to David for setting up another awsome meet. Perfect weather for it too (at least earlier in the day), I liked the cherry blosom trees on the way up the mountain, very pretty, and gave a JDM feel to it. Food was dee-lish of course, and nice to see everyone I haven't seen in a while. :)

[BlackRyder]

eyy roque i tried to tint my own glass yesterday.

:duh:

i couldnt get the damn shit to stop running. now it looks like crap. and after spending 1.5 hours just masking. weak. i think i'll just pay you to do it sometime in the near future. for now carb cleaner and a rag should take care of it.

[CustomS14A]

if you bought cheep film did you that off the backing clear coat

[Var]

make a proper sentence so i can understand what you're saying

[CustomS14A]

All right the film that is sold at autozone and some other places have a clear film one one side that must be taken off. That side will go on the window if didnt take the film off it wont stick to the window. Then bad things will continue to happin.

[CustomS14A]

I didnt find this out intel I really mad and started ripping the film.

[NZO]

very thx item ^^;;

[Var]

ok. i used glass tinting spray from an aerosol can...that's the misunderstanding..maybe i should try the film then.

something weird happened today. I was looking for FD's in the autotrader and before i knew it, i put my car up for sale on craigslist. I want to sell it and buy an FD, but if i dont i will definitely have you do my taillights.

[knghtryde]

how much you asking for you car

[Var]

4500 obo. i got about 8500 in it including the price of the car

[D1drifter]

did someone really fall off the cliff after the meet?

[SilviaNinja240]

I don't think so, the fire trucks just put thier sirens on beacause the roads are so small, that's what I've heard. I wasn't the last one out of there, but everyone's okay, I'm sure we'd hear about it if someone did.

[Andrew Bohan]

i went to the top of mt hamilton after i left, and on the way up i passed some of the firetrucks on their way down. i had to pull way over to the shoulder (if there even was one) and stop and wait for em, and they still had to go super slow to get by me.

it's a good view from the top. if you've never been up there i'd recommend it. you can see SF on a good day. i could see SJ and (i think) gilroy and it was cloudy as hell that day

[thaiger77]

I thought I heard the Park Ranger who complained about peeps drag racing in the park was talking about some dude fell off the cliff right before I left. It was one of the three emergency that the fire dept. and others park rangers were out and about. Not sure what really happen.
