I am trying to find out from my local contacts where all the tuners are trying to meet up this Saturday. There was some at Bass Pro last Sat. night according to my sources and Navy TL stopped by around 1030. He said that there was a few nice cars out there. If I had known he would be there I would have gone out there too but oh well. I have been trying to get the info in case some of us AZ'ers want to get together. I know that it is short notice but if anyone wants to come out, we have a chance to look at other cars as well. Right now I do not have time to organize anything better. I may soon be accepting a job outside the country anyway as noone is trying to hire me for the type of job I am looking for. Just trying to get together before I leave.

If I hear anything about Bass Pro and anyone is interested, I may see if some one else whose phone number I have can post it for me. I will be working tomorrow and can call him to post it if he is willing and able.

Not much was going on last night. Home Depot had abunch of Mustangs. Wal-Mart had a pretty good showing although it was a very young crowd. A little to much clowning around for me. Bass Pro was dead but the club was packed. Think they had a concert. Saw a very nice Supra. He was driving like a idiot. Other than that, not much else was happening. I was out till about 0030. I figure wherever we get together we will be the most civil group.

If you guys want to hang out sometime with our Acura's, PM me and I will give you my number. It will be easier to get in contact in case we go out impromptu. I don't mind last minute notice anyway. I sometimes hang out at these "meet" spots anyway if someone else I know is going to be there. I sometimes have the inside scoop where they will be.

Yeah, I'm usually down to meet up and don't mind the last minute notice...so Dave, feel free to give me a call. Of course with school and work, I am not always available but if I am I'll make it out.

What do you guys think of a meet Sep 29th? Not sure what we can put together before then but I know I don't have the time right now to invest like I did on the last one. I can definitely assist with planning though. Not sure if people wanna try doing a big meet like the last one or not.
And Dave...sorry I haven't been able to get back to you. I'd really like to head out with you guys some night but I've been busy as crap lately. I was at a wedding when you called on Saturday, this weekend I have to work a 24 hour shift (Sat into Sun morning) and the weekend after that I'm heading up to CT to visit some family. So maybe the weekend after that, we can try hitting up a couple places. Let me know.

I say we just get together, maybe get something to eat. This way we dont have to plan too much and worry about cooking. I say lets go with the 29th like snowman said. Who is all up for it?

Well, I can't take credit for thinking of this one. tl_badboy96 sent me a text asking what I thought about the 29th, so I figured I'd get some opinions. I like the idea of getting together to do something and not necessarily a BBQ, it was quite a bit of work and planning last time. Maybe we can hit up a restaurant and have some drinks there. I'm not a big drinker, especially if I'm gonna be driving, but I'll have a few. So if you guys have some ideas, through them out there. We can probably even hit up a local meet since there are a few in the area on Saturday nights. I've also heard AIK (American Indoor Karting) is a pretty good place to hit up. I work with a guy who is on a GTO forum, and he used to go there quite a bit. So let's see what we can throw together. I should have my headers on by then, so maybe MaliciousRC will let me see if I can keep up with him.

damn i wish i found this site earlier, for the next month in a half i will only be in the country for the saturday of labor day weekend i would love to meet up with other Azine members from hampton roads. being in the navy makes my schedule so screwed up. i was told my one of my friends who owns a Charger that the bass pro meet on satudays is pretty nice, i just havent had a chance to get there yet.
i am working on my car a little at a time as i have the time, so getting together and discussing stuff would be a great idea. if you guys want to meet up during laborday weekend hit me up, if not i wont be able to go until mid october.

i will be back in the hampton roads area for labor day weekend but am unavailable on sunday sept 2nd. so if a bunch of people want to get together somewhere, let me know so we can plan out where and when. i just hope we can get a few people together, i am tired of driving past people and seeing them look stuck up.

Hey Jeff, I wish that I could be here for the 29th of Sep. I will probably be out of the country by then unless another job locally calls me. KBR called me today.
Anyway, don't let me not being here stop you. As for Labor Day weekend, I am cool with that. Maybe a restaraunt or something is cool. Meeting at Bass Pro is an option also as I have said before. There are several restaraunts/bars next door (McFaddens', Joes Crab Shack, etc), and we can see some other cars as well. Does anyone know of any places locally that have gatherings of cars on Sundays? They used to out on Route 17 in Yorktown during the daytime if I am not mistaken. {Time for me to do some checking around on that too.}

I'd like to be able to meet up with you guys after the next weekend or something though. I think the more that we get together with local meets, the more people we'd be eventually get to show up. I think the next meet that we have where there are a decent amount of people, we should have some kind of list to write down everyones info, if they are willing. Then we should be able to get a pretty good turnout.

Good luck with that and make sure you hit us up when you come back. Do you know when you're leaving yet and will you're daughter being going with you? I would imagine that's unacompanied though.
So does anyone have any ideas what we should do for a meet?

The only other thing I can think of is an intake though, it's not to much IMO. And get rid of some of that damn plastic that covers everything in the engine bay. My preference, but I don't think it looks good at all. Maybe if it were painted it would be okay though.
