Sorry, but I sized these things like 3 times. I'm tired of it and cut out some of the pics that weren't worthy of being on here. A couple below are still too big, but I just kept it. From now on I'll play with the size of pics my camera takes ... 
Scan Across the whole line took 4 pics:

Did you see how pissed she got when you did that though? It was great.

Dream and Snowman,
I have about 3 - 5 more. Ill try and get those postes tonight. It takes 15 - 30 minutes for them to upload to photobucket, depending of traffic, so I was having a "BEEYYOOCCH" of a time getting them all to load, expecially when some of them failed during the upload.

Yeah, that lady messed it all up. Next time I'll have a lot better videos. I possibly might want to get a video camera now ... that was taken off my digital camera.

I wish we could do one with a cruise through Georgetown's shopping strip and break EVERYONE's neck, haha, but that might be a little difficult.
It's $170 to reserve a shelter and then a $150 refundable security deposit for each shelter that has tables, etc. But if we just go there and have something to eat, etc. then we shouldn't have to pay, right? Or maybe just eat on the grass somewhere...
Btw: I'm not going to lead a BBQ meet (for the food aspect anywayz) because last time things got out of a hand with people paying, ETC. and I dont have room in my life for anymore drama than I already have, haha. So maybe if someone wants to arrange that section of the meet and I'll go scout some places this week, take some pics of the place, etc. But I think people should just either go through a drive thru and bring food or pre-pack food for themselves then we all just chill, eat, and talk about our cars for a little while. Then go for a small cruise maybe?
Is this too far from people ? Click here for map location

I had some ideas, but the dates were fuzzy for me. My schedule will be kinda hectic over the next couple weeks and I wouldn't want to plan something and not include myself. I seriously want to do a video cruise meet one of these days, but that will take some MAJOR lead and plan time.

Jeff and I (jmbnova) were going to suggest a BBQ/DIY install sometime around June 17th. He has a big backyard where we can throw around/kick around soccer ball/footballs and there is a cu-de-sac where people can work on their mods and get help from people if they need it. If you dont wanna install, you can still come and chill with us. Of course there will be food, cold bev's and music as well.
Kinda like a 1st Annual DC Metro Acurazine All American BBQ type of thing
How many people are down with this?

All those ideas sound good. I'd be down for any of them. Keith, I know you are dying to get those mods done. If you'd be willing to make a trip down here, I could definitely help you out. I have a hard time making trips up there because of my schedule. I am paying for this past weekend...didn't get any homework done at all so on top of my school from 8-1 and work from 2-10, I'll probably be up till 2 or 3 finishing homework every night this week. And I have finals next week. I am still planning the Va beach meet for the 27th of this month if anyone is interested. I am gonna go bump that thread now as a matter of fact.

I'll have to look at what's coming up. I have Fri.s and Sat.s off. I seriously gotta plan the rest of this month out too. So much going on. One thing, as far as coilovers....what gets transferred over from the shock/springs? Just the top mounting bolts?

There's a "squeaky coilover" thread I need to look more into also. Someting about modding MDX suspension parts to quiet the Teins. I need to write this stuff down so we have it as notes beforehand.

I was in 8, got tired of pentagon duty, and getting crapped on for doing my job and knowing my rate, and not having 11tybillion collateral duties. So it was time to go bye bye.

mr_luv, how many years were you in? I've contemplated getting my degree and getting out but the retirement options look so good. And to be able to collect retirement at 40 and still get another job...that would be some nice $$, especially if I retired as an officer.

** Upcoming Harrisburg, PA Meet**
Hey guys,
Jason (CCColtsicehockey) wanted me to let everyone know about the upcoming Harrisburg, PA meet on June 3rd which we are all invited to attend. I realize this meet is quite a distance for most of us, but I thought I might pass on the information in the event that anyone might be interested.
Info for the Harrisburg, PA meet can be found here:

Yeah, that's a bit far for me. NoVA and Maryland aren't bad but PA? Now you're talking about 6 hrs one way for me. That's pushing it. There is also a car show that I am registered in down here in Va Beach that weekend so I wouldn't be able to make it. Hope all that go have a good time. Jason can set up a meet pretty well as far as I am concerned.

Nice....glad to see we got some peoples attention at the meet. And they even took a shot of my engine. Not sure why, it's nothing special but I'm not complaining.
