It's worth your time to swing by! I love just seeing 8-10 galants mininum showing up. Where else will you find 8-10 galants just parked in a row? I hope the evo crowd makes a good showing too and having the dyno there with all the soccer mom's and little league dads will make for an interesting day of fun.

Most of you guys already know this, but the club that hosts it is the DSMCA which can be found at http://www.dsmca.org/dsmca/index.php

Here are some pictures from GT7 last summer.

hmm sounds like fun.. first dsm meet for me possibly

hey bill you going to the mega meet afterwards???
 
I can't speak for bill, but I and many other DSMer's will be in attendance at the commuter lot meet of 95 (exit 160) can't miss it. I believe that meet starts around 7:30?? anyone know?
 
not sure if im going to be at the gt8 meet, i want to get my MBC and boost gauge installed..
 
Yes, I'll be at the Megameet after GT8. And VaBoys2ndGen, you should definately come out to GT8, hell, we could probably install the boost gauge and (obviously) the MBC there! It would NOT be the first time we installed parts at a meet...everyone in Team Trinity knows whats up.

Ahh darn, wish I could caravan with a fellow Front Royal dsmer, but I work that day and I'll just jump from work to GT8. plus my car is still on jack stands.

Anyhow, See you guys there.

and if for some reason I dont happen to make it, I'll just see you guys at the MegaMeet later that night.

sounds good man. LOL who all is coming up there from fredericksburg. obviously i dont know how to get there but i did mapquest it so its all good i guess.
 
the event was a great time. i hope everyone had as good as time as we did.

Slowboy Crew- It was great to see a few most of your again and it was great meeting more of you. We'll be sure to make it up there sometime soon to see how you do up in your neck of the woods.

p.s. Anyone who rides in the Back of Marcs MR better keep their ears open for "Brake Check". LOL.
 
I showed up waaayy too late I think. I was about to head out when this guy came over and asked me to take off his fenders real quickly, he may be giving me his brand new hid kit so im being nice :D . Anyways, I get it off and he is like, yeah I need em off so I can take off my headlights, im like oh #### no you dumbass. So I took off the front bumper and headlights threw em back on along with the fenders. Then it took me a goddamn hour in traffic to get over there. I left my house at 1pm, LOL left my driveway at around 4:20 andn got to the meet at 5. Oh well I stayed at the Mid-Atlatnic meet most of the night.
