I would love to do that, as I've never actually shot a real gun! I know I've lived a sheltered life. I don't know if this will attract to the masses. How far is the Fremont Go Karting place?

I'll call this weekend when they aren't as busy and ask them if they have one to use. I actually try not to boost most of the time. Helps with the gas mileage!

When i organized the 6club meets, we went to Leman's Go Karting. Its not too far... its right off of 680.
About the rifle range... yeah i'm sure it won't appeal to everyone, but I'm interested, perhaps half will go shooting the other half will go karting? eh?

All in all I think a BBq is a fine idea.

Damn, I love karting (even though I suck), but I've been wanting to go to a shooting range for a long time. I'm torn!

yeah, you know... the meet is already pretty set. I don't think there is much else to do other than wait for it to happen.

Besides... i live in sacramento and am not looking to make an extra drive down. But if Dluxxx (derrick) wants to meet up with Rishie on his own, its all good in the neighborhood.

-btw... as much effort as I put into this upcoming meet, my car might be in the shop getting painted and fitted. Hope i can schedule it out so that my car will be done before that.

when are you getting the kit? It shouldn't take that long unless the body shop you went to has a long line of cars.

i dunno... i bought the tsunami kit off nopionline, and it just so happens that the manufacturing plant for the kit is based in sacramento.

The dude from tsunami called me a couple hours after my order (thursday) and said it should take maybe 1-2 days to get to me. So, hopefully sometime this week. I'm also painting a CF hood that i acquired.

This is my first real bodykit and am wondering how long it should take to get done, i haven't called the shop that tsunami recommended (shop that did their test fits), as i still don't have the kit in my hand.

Does the scenario usually go like this?
-drive to shop with parts.... test fit and put back stock.. leave fitted parts
-They paint the stuff overnight or whenever
-I come back and they put it on?

I'm hoping i don't have to leave my car at the shop. As that would be a bitch to coordinate.

All in all i'm hoping paint and fit will cost maybe $900. For front bumper, sides, and hood. But who knows.

You're about right with the costs. Give or take a few hundred. What are your plans for the rear? You may have to leave your car there, so make preparations!

the rear i'm not too sure. I think that the rears of many many bodykits make the car look frumpy and heavy. I like the OEM rear so i'm thinking of maybe just a lipkit or the MS rear.

But that's a long way down the road... i've had my car maybe 2 weeks, and i've already used up my once per year "momentary loss of sanity" ticket.

Just fyi guys I posted up on msprotege.com boards. I have a handful of guys that have now graduated into the rotary world but they still lurk around that board. I got a buddy with a pretty much fully built MSP and hope he can make it.

I'm gonna put together some crazy discount deals as incentives to come to the event. Whether in stock or not this could be a time to get a spaking deal on the wheels of your dreams. Some products we can do super on, others we can't because frankly we don't have a good deal to begin with.

But don't worry, you're just stuck with the good options.

We have a Q stored at the office at all times. A good ol' Weber. Just might need coals and stuff like that. I got the grille tho. you might need "hardware", spatula etc...

See you guys soon,

Rishie

Hey I think I saw your ride a couple of times. One time at Kezar stadium and another near GG Park by the school. Not sure if that was you or not, but very nice ride from another soon to be MazdaSPEED'd 8.

Ok folks, sounds like we are on for a BBQ. Is everyone down for this, and down to bring something? If so I'll start trying to get a list together from the various forums, and coordinate what food and other supplies we should have.
