where is this meet?

 

Thx Al!! Good meet!

 

thanks again Al. I learned alot and it was a blast too. really nice meeting you and the rest of the crew there. just wish this came sooner, i already bought my suspension . oh well, i got a good deal on it and the car will at least look good. lol. As for all the talk of coils and whatnot, i think all that talking scared my coils. it had a hard start when we went to leave the timmies...well, harder than usual. im definitly doing coils on monday or tuesday on my car. that was scary, hearing it crank for that long.

footman, did you notice how far back i was from you after that onramp onto the 401? that damn popped shock and gay stock GS springs....i thought i was gonna roll right off the road. haha. im sure my hideous winter tires arent helping matters. cant wait for this weather to be gone for another few seasons.

the race car was unbeleivable. and so was the first gen for that matter. cant wait to see it in action at mazdas at mosport.

 

Nah you weren't that far back... but regardless, we were BOTH held back by that gay-*** PT cruiser... we could have gone much faster on that ramp... much much faster....
Dunlop Wintersport M3 for the mother ******* win!!!

 

Thanks Al for your time and effort. It was a very informative session.

 

You guys are most welcome, it was great having all the 8's there!

 

Yes, thanks Al.

Now I know what we don't agree on. :P

The miata can run 10lbs boost all day without blowing up.

 

And the Slowtege!

 

i thought it was a protegay

 

Oh ouch. That sounds like something Josh would say.

 

Thanks for the meet Al,

It was well worth the drive from Oakville.

See you guys out at Mosport in May!

 

Who were you at the meet?

 

Wow you all work in real-time... I'm only reading this now... my inbox is always a beast.

I would have loved to meet everyone and learn from the masters. Oh well maybe next time. Would it possible to plan say 2 weeks ahead for the next one? That way I can try to shift things around in my schedule.

Sounds like fun was had by all. Good Job!

 

Andrew, My name is Kevin. I was sitting accross the table from you. One away from Al.

 

For the guys that were here, BFG/Michelin will be introducing a $50.00 rebate on all tires (except "R" compounds sorry Thief). So if your looking for tires this spring let me know!

 

DAMN. Ah well... For those who don't mind noise, go for the KDWs.

 

I've got the KDW's on my 8, they are noisy but not that bad!

 

Kevin, but Rotary Greg was beside Al on the other side of the table...
The other guy on the left of Al was some brown dood?

 

kevin was to my right, hence, one away from al...accept that rev (sorry dude forgot your real name) snuck in later, so kev you were two away.

 

True! but i wasn't counting our late arriving rev..

 

Al, what were the 3 companies that you recommended in the meeting as the best/most reliable? One was Racing Beat, I can't remember the other two.
And what was that guys name/companies name that does the transmission differential (located in Pickering)?
Thx!!

 

They were, Racing Beat, Mazdatrix and AWR (Anthony Woodford Racing). There are some other good ones bit they mainly deal in hardcore racing. Speedsource and Pettit Racing are 2 of the racing ones.

Mazdees (Dave Dietrick) in Pickering is the person I was talking to about the gear swap, I dont know if he has done anything with it yes.

 

Damn, I missed this post. I was at the dealership until 2PM on Saturday and had no idea this meet was happening. I would have stayed longer if I had known it was happening.

I blame Josh for not letting me know even though I was trying to help him sell a car!

 

bah... I wasn't late... I was just following up with the progress of the welding on exhaust for the race car..

sorry I couldn't stay longer guys.. ask you no doubt could tell by the hacking I wasn't felling 100%.

 

I know your pain Rev - I wouldn't have been there if it was the weekend before thx to the flu.
