December Portland Meet

[SpeedAddict62]

I'll tune your lean burn if you help me tune my VE .

Just washed the car. Can't wait for Sunday

 

[ssweeper2]

well, as is all too common my car is down @ the moment. My MPI relay crapped out. But it should be good as new come Sun. I might wash my car as well. It's more likely that I'll have my snow tires and roof rack on though.

My clutch swap didnt quite go like I planned. English should be getting my new presure plate monday, so the GVR4 is out of commision. Im thinkin about showing up in the Mazdaspeed3 anyways... not sure how accepting you guys are towards wagons, though.

 

[Bones420]

In my opinion the first upgrade for a dsm should be a secondary vehicle anyway.

Ain't that the truth...

 

[Brianawd]

So the galant will not be up and running. I am waiting for some gvr4 timing belt covers. Even if I got it up and running with what the weather is going to do I would not be driving. For some reason I don't think the Azenis RT-615 would do so well in the snow. I am still going to come but will just be in the Montero

 

[ssweeper2]

I'm gonna be there snow or shine. Plus i've talked with Nbayer and his bro and they'er in. What about the rest of you?

 

[slow1stgen]

depends on weather.. or if my car will run.. my car runs when it wants too.. just like a typical girl.

 

[Ravenous]

I'll be there, the Miss may skip out on it though... to much testosterone but we'll see. The car won't be washed... or vacuumed but it'll be there. It doesn't really matter anyway as half the clear coat is falling off.

 

[Ravenous]

Hey all, just doing a tally once again now that our "Winter Storm" has hit. I am not that far away from the meet location so I'm not to worried but I know that some people are coming from across town or further. Be safe out there, it is going to get icier as we get closer to the meet. If to many people aren't going to come we might want to call it on account of weather but we'll see how it goes once more people are in here.

I5 is closed at barbur in both directions. Just FYI

 

[Brianawd]

I will be there.

 

[SpeedAddict62]

I won't be able to make it. I would give it a shot but friends and family say otherwise. I hate missing meets, it sucks. Maybe those who want to go today can, but we should probably reschedule so more people can come.

 

[Ravenous]

Had to go get gas, it took 45 minutes for something that usually only takes 10... oh well. I hope it works out better next time. I saw 3 accidents and and 15+ cars on the side of the road. There are way to many asinine people out there driving on bald tires... ridiculous. I apologize to those that are there, I wish I could of come.

 

[SpeedAddict62]

Lol, damnit Hak! I ended up driving my girlfriend to work, it honestly wasn't all that bad. I got chains and I was good to go. A lot of people weren't so lucky though, quite a few were stuck in the ditch, mostly 2wd with no chains. It was fun though...

 

[Nbayer1614]

I went to red robin with ssweeper2 in his car and we met 2 other guys there. I set of snow tires on our cars makes them handle almost like it was dry. It was a lot of fun to drive around at regular speed while every one else just put put around. We should reschedule for sometime in january. let me know what you gus think.

 

[SpeedAddict62]

I could have made it...but since 205 was closed and 84 didn't sound good either, I decided not to. Plus, I had no idea who would show up.

205 was not closed. I took it to get to mall 205

 

[4thStroke]

We should shoot for a meet in January. Between the weather, being limited to FWD, and my grandparents being in town, there was no way I was making it out to meet up with you guys. the GVR4 should be running here pretty soon and hopefully will be running solid within the next couple weeks.

 

[SpeedAddict62]

Lame. I heard it was. Oh well.

January sounds good to me too. Although I'm planning to leave for Corvallis at the beginning of January...so it will either have to be right after Christmas or on a weekend if I'm going to make it.

 

[frostone]

I didn't go,but January sounds like a month with nothing but days in it!!

 

[SpeedAddict62]

Ok, now that we are well into January and hopefully out of the random crazed snow storms...what say we get an actual meet together?

Maybe say the 24th/25th? I'd assume that gives everyone enough time to plan ahead. Same place.

 

[SpeedAddict62]

Ok let's go with the 25th. Same place, same time, I'll update the beginning of this thread. Who is up for it?

 

[Nbayer1614]

I will try to be there. My buddy ssweeper2 and my bro should be able to come hopefully.

 

[Polyol]

I think, I'am going to try and make it up there.

 

[4thStroke]

My GVR4 has been running for some time now and has been doing pretty well, it should still be on the road on the 24th, so hopefull I can make it.
