What's up, Epit!? It was cool to see you on the road tonight.

I saw you pulling out onto 434, and revved to say hey, not as in the, "hey i'm gonna race you...let's go" sort of way. Just so ya know...

Sorry that I didn't lower the windows to chat or anything, but I was running 15 mins late on my way towards Mall at Millenia and wanted to watch the road.

But MAN did you HAUL *** after me lol! I passed you going at least 45mph, and 5 seconds later, you were right next to me. I got a nice view of your, "PWNED" plate as well lol...How fast did you get up to?

Anyways, it was good catchin you on the road...It'll be cool when we're all chillin in a few weeks.

By the way, was that your girl? I wasn't paying too much attention..but I remember her being cute... You lil' pimp, you

lol, no it's all good. i was on a first date with her, so I had to strut my stuff :D I had it up to the end of 3rd I think, so 90 I guess. I got to play the "how fast you think im going" trick, like I do with all the girls. I figured it was you anyway, you're the only WB 8 around I think.

thanks for the props on the girl though! if I play my cards right, I'm gonna bring her out to the meet.

BTW - blanchard park is between university and 50 on dean rd about a mile north of 50.

Okay...website is updated. If I've missed anything, please feel free to lemmee know.

I took Monday and Tuesday off to install a 10" woofer, 200 watt Orion amp. TALK ABOUT A PAIN IN THE ***!! WOW!!

I had to take out the back seats, center console, CD Player, and trunk carpeting. Andjust so you know......I'LL NEVER DO THAT AGAIN. sheeeeesh

The amp required a direct connection straight to the battery. Routed the power cable around the engine, through the firewall, under the dash, down (under) the center console, under the trunk carpet and into the amp in the trunk. I hate those self locking plastic, snap fasteners.

Anyways, after I got it all put back to gether, it sounded great! Not a "boomer" but the added thump is great for a little power to the tunes.

I also used a chrome spray on the rotary symbol on the front grill. It looks great and I saved myself $158! I'll take some pics this weekend...

As far as the Meet is concerned, sounds like Titan is giving us a load, so maybe we would be better off at Blanchard? We'll need someplace big enough for all the cars. My brother works at Walt Disney World. Maybe he can arrange a photo op in the courtyard of Cinderella's Castle (yeah right). Wouldn't THAT be choice?

Anyways, if you haven't sent me your cellphone number yet, and you want it on the Contact List for the 24th, send it my way. I'll be sending out the spreadsheet soon, so we can communicate on THE DAY.

SEEYAS soon!!

I could do them. A couple of burritoes and I'm loaded for bear!

:D :D


Seriously though, epitrochoid said he would check into Blanchard if that location was a "GO." Seemd like everyone agreed Blanchard was an acceptable site.

The last I heard, BlueGrim was seeing about dealer sponsored shirts and evot23 was looking into the bar-b-que.

I'm doing the website, listing information and will pickup name tags for those who want them. I'm also bringing a digital for pictures.

Anyone else with special assignments or responsibilities, stand forward and be counted!!

What did the Titan guy say about the dyno? Any word yet?

I believe that's about it...

HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO KEEP TRACK OF ALL THE INFO WITH THIS RAMPANT DOUBLE POSTING?!!!?!!1111

just playing :D

If it's a go, then I'll call blanchard tomorrow. My only concern is that the lot may be used for parking during little league games on saturdays, if it isn't i don't see why they'd have a problem with it. if it doesnt work out there, my buddy said his mr2 club had a big meet at red bug lake pk. never been there, but he said it can hold 50+ cars, its a ways from titan, but I'll check it out if need be.

what's the word on the dyno day and BBQ? Are we still a go for that? And also, someone should let the rx7 and s2k guys know we're moving from titan.

If there's gonna be any whoring involved, lemmee know. I'll leave my 15 year old daughter at home and bring my unmarked money stash in small denominations.

We'll still have the bar-b-que though, right?

:D

p.s. What does one have to do a make this a "sticky". They always stay at the top.

Wasn't someone going to call a radio station or something? Also, how about someone in O-town start getting the word out to some of the auto shops to get some vendors there...just a thought.

Any updates?? Also if we are going to try and get some vendors and stuff there I'll need to know the location ASAP and I can see if a couple customs shops in the Tampa area have any interest or know anyone else who might not be on the boards and is into rotaries.

So that means no more Titan at all? No dyno-ing?

I guess the site needs to be updated to show that we just meet at the park n BBQ/chill.

well I suggested that we go over to titan in shifts, cuz i'd like to get dyno'd. if we do do that, we need someone that knows just what we all need to do to our cars so they dont go into homo mode on the rollers.

potent: were you on 86th ave in seminole around 6:30 today?

Yeah I was actually taking my dad for a drive in the car first time hes sat in it. Didnt even see ya

As far as Titan goes I think going over in shifts would be cool, I dont plan on getting dynoed but I'd love to see just what some people are getting.
