**mrmephistopheles** · 09-25-2003, 04:22 PM

BTW, Chris and Jon from Speedalliance are sponsoring the event, ok well they are sponsoring the shade! heh. I recommend bringing sunblock &/or shade, something cold to drink...and if you want something to sit on, or a picnic balnket...

**mrmephistopheles** · 09-25-2003, 11:56 PM

I know it's last minute, but bring items you have for sale or trade!
we'll hold a little swap meet/part sale while we're there! sound good?
For items like wheels, i recommend just bringing one and getting the rest after the meet..
Also, everyone have your checkbooks or some cash ready to buy stuff with!

We usually have a meet every couple of months or so.

Anyways, defenitely come join us man! You'll get to meet the whole "family"!

hahahaha!

Hope to see you there.

WhiteNissanS13 · 09-26-2003, 06:28 PM

i dunno if im gonna be able to come, my parents want me to go up to vegas with them.

but i know its bad to put a meet in another meet, but i have a school project and i plan to use a 240sx meet for my presentation. SATURDAY JANUARY 10th 2004. its a long time from now but i wanna let the word out, so maybe it'll be a good size crowd of attendance.

**mrmephistopheles** · 09-27-2003, 01:12 AM

Ok folks, it's getting late and I need to go to bed!
We're bringing canned sodas (50c), bottled waters (75c) and chips (fuh ree), and a few parts we have for sale..

Here's the weather forecast for tomorrow:
AM Clouds / PM Sun 72°/65°

If anyone gets lost or needs directions, give me a call at 858 414 8432.

Remember its 5 (N or S depending upon where you're coming from) Exit Clairmont Dr, exit WEST. Goto stopsign at entrance of park and take a RIGHT, enter first parking lot on the LEFT!
Look for mad #s of 240s and such!

Here's the address for the park visitor's center (which is about 200m away from the parking lot we'll be at.

San Diego Visitor Information Center
2688 East Mission Bay Dr.
San Diego, CA 92109

One last time and for good measure: No misbehavior! No burnouts (Grant! j/k), Drifting, Wheelies, Donuts, Drinking & Driving, etc ad nauseum. I'm adamant about this. It's not only dangerous, but it gives everyone there a bad reputation that isn't warranted and shouldn't be associated with the 240sx crowd.
We've avoided undue attention from the vast majority of PoPo so far,, and it's not without reason.

Anyway. Can't wait to see everyone tomorrow!

-Kevin

***S13SilviaGirl*** · 09-27-2003, 11:13 PM

SpeedMonkeyInc · 09-28-2003, 01:13 AM

Good to see everyone out there today! And nice to meet new people. Nice cars.
Thanks Speed Alliance for the shade and thanks Lisa and Kevin for the drinks. See all of you at the next meet.

-Davied

s15dude · 09-28-2003, 08:39 AM

Hey thanks for organizing the meet kevin and lisa, weather was great, cars were great, people were great, we just need to fill that parking lot up next time!!! then it will be evn harder to remember everyones names tho, anyways, good times

**mrmephistopheles** · 09-28-2003, 09:49 AM

Well.. I dunno about everyone else.. but I had a great time!
It was great to meet everyone, BS about cars, give technical help and share info where I could.

Matt: thanks for the the D1GP disc. I've yet to watch it because I need to update my QT, but I dig the high res pics!

Vatche: Hook up that power steering! it's SO easy and so worth it! I understand you probably don't mind it now, but wait till you get wide sticky tires and rims!

Dave: who are you again? HAHAHA your car is coming along nicely..

Peter: uhmm her name is Lisa.

Anyway, thanks for giving me the grand tour of your masterwork, and if you need any help with that brake prototyping, lemme know.

Rory: Thanks for bringing your NICE S14 out! It was nice to have a few people there who were at the last Mission Bay meet. Maybe next time we should have another cruise!

SpeedAlliance: (Chris & Jon) Thanks for coming out and lending the shade. Chris - you owe me a new door panel! (

) Jon (chickenbone) - bitch. (

)

Jason: I'm sorry that particular shop did a gheto fabulous job on your swap. Get up with me and I'll help you get some reverse lights going. Did you get a new shifter bushing already?

Jay: lets hurry up and make your car 'five fast manuals!' You know I can help you!

Shaun: Uhmm.. see you at the hobby shop later? And you still could've done your speakers... I don't want to hear any more lame excuses like 'my wife grounded me' unless it's coming from me.
I mean.. uhmm... WHAT?

Grant: Your car is looking better & better. Sorry it was TOO low yesterday. Give me a call when you're free today.

Phong: Sorry you had to bolt after dinner, but it was great having you there!

WhiteNissanS13: It's too bad you couldn't stick around for longer!

Thanks go to everyone who came and helped the meet be great. Dinner was also pretty good (except for the service part).

-Kevin

Anubis · 09-28-2003, 10:15 AM

perhaps i'll show up next time when i'm fully recovered. I miss these meets

WhiteNissanS13 · 09-28-2003, 11:29 AM

The meet was pretty cool, how about another one same location on
January 10th, 2004.
Hopefully with that being a long time from now we could possibly get the word out and have a large crowd show up. what do you guys think? maybe even have a few more vendors along with speedalliance, maybe even a mini BBQ there? i know i can't BBQ for crap unless you want burnt crispy burgers. how does this all sound?

addicted2sp33d · 09-28-2003, 06:21 PM

OMG. Lisa.

I'm not worthy! I'm not worthy! This will be burned into my memory for all time. At least I got the 4-letters and starts with an L part right.

How 'bout next time, we just invade an In-N-Out burger. Good Food, MUCH cheaper, and no worries about crappy service.

Kevin, I'll definitely be doing SOMETHING about the brakes before October 25th. At the least, I'm going to be installing some HP Plus Race Pads (No Mr. TireRack, they're not going on a street car).

240Degrees · 09-28-2003, 07:49 PM

glad to hear plenty of you guys made it. maybe next time i can make it you'll see me with a silvia front

sil40, not sil80

*radhaz* · 09-28-2003, 08:29 PM

I had an absolute blast, the number of folks who showed up was just about perfect since all of us got to chat and "talk shop". Many thanks to Kevin and Lisa for organizing it and of course to speed alliance for sponsoring the shade :P

I look forward to the next get together.

A cruise would definitely be a fun addition!

Zenki_S14 · 09-28-2003, 09:46 PM

What did you guys do after dinner? I was tempted to stay but I had to leave.

We just talked as we slowly made our way to the parking lot, where we talked some more, then we kinda left. Yes a cruise would be tight, like last years where we had 20 something 240's cruisin on the freeway!! maybe out to julian for some fun curves and good pie!!

NeLO aNgeLO · 09-29-2003, 12:36 AM

cruise would be fun . i mentioned ortega hwy to a few people. if people have time we should hit that up. probably go sometime early(9 or 10 am maybe). go from west to east end up in lake elsinore there is a sizzlers there were we could reserve a nice big table. sounds good?????

**mrmephistopheles** · 09-29-2003, 01:28 AM

pics are up!

***S13SilviaGirl*** · 09-30-2003, 04:20 PM

I think Ortega would be a kick ass drive, but people have to have a lot of time and NO ONE can be driving stupid, or they would end up hurting not only themselves, but others, not to mention the 240's behind/infront of them. If anyone were to drive like an ass I would have to do this :hammer: and I don't wanna do :hammer: it just isnt any fun!

WhiteNissanS13 · 09-30-2003, 04:54 PM

i got bored and pasted your pics together

***S13SilviaGirl*** · 09-30-2003, 06:03 PM
