i would like to go, i have made the trip twice to nopi, once with my buddy in 2000, then drove down with my friends on 2002, cool thing was that both times a pic of me made it into super street. i was on my way down in 2001 but my car broke down in virginia.

ahhhh, memories.....hell, me and my friends in 2000 almost got arrested for setting off fireworks near our motel.......hehe

even been to nopi, like i said ive been twice. the ENTIRE infield of atlanta motor speedway is covered with cars, vendors, cars, displays, cars, and more cars. its definately one place you can find just about anything for any import car. you have it a little better than i do, as i live in delaware, so the trip is a little longer, but both times i went, coming back we pulled an all nighter and made it back by 7 am. then slept all day.

well--if ya'll think you're going to want a hotel, i reccomend booking it NOW and getting a place with 24 hour before cancalation. We had a really hard time finding a decent hotel left.

I'm totally new to the "group" here, from Atlanta - and I just bought my Shinka 3 weeks ago - but I'm interested in going. Are there any "8 events" or hangouts planned?

Cheers.

The URL responded with "abc" on a white page. You may want to check your code. I deleted the last part and got in.

Drifting, Hydraulics, Drifting, Swimsuit, Chick Model Search, Drifting, Jello Wrestling, Burnout's, Swimsuit Competition, Neon's, Freak Show, Drifting, Booty Shake Contest, Jello Wrestling, Swimsuit Finals... Dang, this sounds like a lot of fun!

I think maybe I will lay off on this one. At 53 I think I will feel a little out of place. Especially if my wife new I was gawking at those luscious, well rounded, titillating cars! :D

All I need is the date & time, and I'll be there!

If we put our cars in we're going to stay the weekend down there, if not we'll probaly go both days but we'll drive back and forth. You're more than welcome to come hang out with us Shinka.
