I know we all like to track and not drag but this looks like fun. I might go to spectate since I might be in the area and friends will be dragging too.

Thanks bro , the exhaust itself is the hks hi power, but i also have a racing beat dual res midpipe, gtspec header, and the racing beat rev-i w/ duct. I'm guessing all of it affects the sound, but even when i was just running the hks hi power i got compliments on the sound. For me it's not too loud, but when i get on the gas it can scream pretty nicely.

Whose interested in doing a couple of meets a month here? If so, I'll get back to organizing them starting either spring or summer. Once May rolls around, i should be having a lot more free time from work. Let me know and maybe we can bring back NorCal Mazda's.

I'm always up for a meet. BTW I might be able to stop by in Concord since I will be in Vallejo around 7ish. I will head back to Cupertino using 680.

Our next meet should be at a go kart track. Either in Freemont or Livermore. I prefer Livermore's track. Meet up, snap some pics of our rides and you guys try and keep up with me in the karts.

Its been a while since I gone karting, got an email from one of them and thought it would be good idea. So long in fact I don't remember my best time around LeMans Karting.

Would you guys like weekend meets? I like to jump around so we don't get too tired of one place. We can rotate between 5 different locations or something. Give me the days you guys are open, if you want weekend or weekday meets and times and such. Once i get another info, i'll definitely start setting these up again.

What i'm thinking is definitely going to all parts of the bay area. Also, i plan on doing it twice a month to start off. I used to hold weekly meets and it worked out but died out quick. We'll definitely do twice a month though. Keep the suggestions coming!
