[sinfire55]

Why would you be driving to Lansing when the meet is in Portage? Its not snowing down here....yet anyway.

 

[Tsi_User]

well it's not snowing in Lansing yet. It's raining a little but it's definately too warm to get snow on the ground

 

[blackGSX2g]

Its like 40* here right now, we're not getting a huge snowstorm...besides the highways are always plowed anyways.

Hey Mike, sorry we couldn't log your car yesterday...I ended up getting a new wheel bearing shipped same day and was putting that on. I'll bring my logger to the meet and we can mess with it then.

 

[TSiAWDchick]

hm.. I don't see any snow.. thank god .. but rain sux

 

[khendriksma1]

I don't think I am going to make it to the meet this time. My car is torn apart in my garage (not that I would take it out with this shitty weather anyway) and I don't feel like taking the Ranger again.

Hopefully the weather will start cooperating and I can get my new T04B B-52 turbo installed and tuned before April 9th. I really want to run that day if the track is open and the weather is good.

 

[Tsi_User]

well it just started snowing a litte here around 12 but it's not really sticking. I think we're still gonna come though

 

[DSM Loki]

you'd better come to the meet. anyways, its about 3 right now, not snowing here in kalamazoo. just rainy-ish nasty stuff. better than snow though. hope to see you all there.

 

[WhtEclipse705]

wow.. i said lansing.. and ment portage.. btw, how did it go. alot of people show up? i think we need to start planning for the next one ASAP becuase i need to go to a meet.. but people got to get there cars working. but for those of you who made it today, hope you had a good time....

 

[sinfire55]

A decent amount of people showed, but not a lot. I blame it on the weather. I'd say somewhere between 15-20 came. About half went back to GR for a get together afterwards and that's where they're headed right now, but some of us stayed back.

 

[Eclipsei95cl]

The weather owned us on this one

But it was a decent turn out the last meet though was way better. Oh well this will be the last meet of winter thats for sure. The next one will be the trackday, I believe on the 9th. We will have some info for that shortly. Oh and sorry to the bay city, lansing guys, sucks one of your cars broke down and you got stranded in the ghetto for like 2 hours and then by the time you guys got it taken care of we had all gone home.. Sorry guys maybe sometime we can have a meet in your area to make it up to ya.

 

[blackGSX2g]

Yea, my condolences to the Lansing crew...one of their cars lost a tranny in the ghettos of Kalamazoo.

The next meet will be track day at Martin on April 9th...weather permitting. We were hoping to get people to come a little early for this one so that we can get a good section roped off for the WMDSM club. Once we finalize things with Martin, we'll post up on this site as well as the WMDSM forums.

Overall the meet went pretty well, we had a couple of new people show up for this one which is always good...too bad the weather sucked. We still ended up getting some good pics and a few good videos as well of us rockin through the streets of K-zoo.

That bites hard. Did he have it towed all the way back east?

 

[yup talon]

he had it towed to his aunts house in portage. but his bro came down last night and towed it back here to bc.

 

[wishihadatalon]

Hey Don sorry about your car man. I am also sorry to all you bay city guys that made the hike out and didn't even get to the meet. Was glad that we all could bring the meet to you Anyway since you were all good sport about it I think we should have a wmdsm caravan out to Dons car show. Just hit me up with more info man and I will get the ball rollin on setting it up.

 

[sinfire55]

What's Don's car show?

 

[Tsi_User]

damn, we couldn't get out there either. My friend had to work until 5 and the weather sucked also. Hopefully we'll make it out to the next one though.

i'm taking the block and head to be machined tuesday, should have it bacl thurs or friday. going with all stock parts, i want to go with HKS 272's but i'm not sure what is needed for the install and if i'll be able to afford them. i've never put cams in before so i'll need help with that from somebody.

oh yea, to answer the question: i hope so, but doubt it

 

[1fstSS]

i think i split a cv shaft, but ill know for sure tomarow. and thanks to everyone who brought the meet to us!! it was definatly a cool sight seeing all you people pull in and i dont think the shop owner knew what to think!! but the car show is june 17th and 18 here in baycity at the baycounty fairgrounds, its in conjunction with the Great lakes nationals tractor pull even those days in the evening, the show is from 7am to 5 pm then we will do a cruise or something after both days, the show is a judged event, trophies awarded, and theres a burn-out contest, kind of irelevent for the awd people but still fun to watch!! the prices are up on my site Baycityrides.com
But on a side note my brother said when they yanked the car off the dolly the tranny freed up, but im not risking it and my tranny guy is gonna eat this!! this is the 4th time he has had it!!! GGRRRR!!! but i have to give him the opportunity to rectify the situation. but like i said, thanks to everyone who came out to see my busted ass wheels!!

 

[ReMiX]
