It's on for the usual place and time (Starbucks at Hwy 99 & Bond Rd in Elk Grove at 9AM), unless q2killer (he of the most pimpage ride ) can suggest a better meeting place in the Roseville area. :p

The usual agenda: BS and check out our rides for an hour or so, take off for a couple hour road trip, then back to Mel's Diner for afternoon lunch and road trip debrief session.

Any other local or Bay Area CL/TLs are welcome to join our humble meet in "semi-civilized" Sacratomato.

We should probably do a different road course this time so we don't wear out our welcome (or press our luck) on the Sac river road...suggestions welcome. I'm thinking perhaps something off Jackson Hwy, Latrobe Rd, Green Valley Rd...something out in eastern unincorporated portions of Sac county.

Post here if interested.

"q2killer (he of the most pimpage ride)" will be there!!!

Red Rider

I will be there, hopefully with Valentine One hard wired and ready for serious testing.

Norcal CL-s

Count me in....

bobowah_RENAMED

why don't you all come down to the BayArea meet on the 28th?

You all are welcome.. =)

H@mmerm@n

Thanks for the invite, but I can't make it on the 28th...I have to go to a co-worker's wedding. Given the choice, I'd still rather spend the 2+ hours it would take driving I80 & Hwy 101 to get to the bay area doing some spirited driving on an uncrowded Sacratomato-area country road instead.

PimpD@ddy

I would but have plans. Maybe next time.

H4mm3rm4n, I guess you won't make it to the 28th Network Party then?

Red Rider

Mike, i see the tint is in your sig, how did it come out. Maybe we can hook up on Sunday,
after noon or later in the day could work for me.

H@mmerm@n

q2: No chance I can make it...the wedding is at Tahoe south shore at 2 PM...probably won't be back here until after 8PM or so. Even if the LAN party was still happening then, I'd be worthless fragbait.

Red: The tint looks great. 20% tint is not that overly dark looking out of the car from within, but it's nice and dark when you are outside looking in.

Sunday afternoon is OK, I'm just not sure what time. I've got a few errands to run in the early afternoon, not sure what time I'll be back. I was gonna call you this afternoon on the way back from the shop but I don't have your home phone number. Do you want to email it to me or try and hook up during next week after work?

Red Rider

Mike, i'll e-mail you my number so you can have it. Enjoy your Sunday and we'll hook up during the week. I'll be in Portland on Tuesday, how about Wednesday after work. Let me know. Glad you like the tint, looking forward to seeing it in person.

H@mmerm@n

Wednesday after work sounds good...I'll email you Wed to confirm.

PimpD@ddy

Any of you guys seen The Fast and the Furious? If not, would ya like to go and see it after the meet?

H@mmerm@n

I saw it with my wife a couple weeks ago. I really didn't think it wasn't all that bad as I had heard. My wife even liked it. I guess I was expecting it to be worse. To be sure, it is no tour de force (sp?) of great acting, but the plot is passable if not entirely believable, and the cars are pretty trick.

Did any of you varmintz :p have any ideas for the road trip?

Norcal CL-s

Fast and the Furious? That's sounds cool.

I have No idea for the road trip though, Maybe Winters?

PimpD@ddy

I don't have any idea for a road trip either. Red Rider?

Edub-TL

I'm planned on heading down to Sacto this weekend.. was gonna head up Saturday afternoon.. 9AM is pretty early though..

I'll know for sure if I am going or not by Wed or Thur.. depends on what I have to do down there.. but most likely, I'll try to make it.

Ashburner

Hey Q2,

What Network party are you talking about? Have you ever heard of Lantrocity?

-Ash

PimpD@ddy

Yeah drop by now and then. Don't actually bring my pc. Have a friend (Glen Graham) that goes. I have a network party about 4-6 times a year with friends etc. We coordinate them and get together at each other's houses. Ranging from 14 - 28 people. Much more personal then the 100+ lan parties of Lantrocity. But I may go sometime. Do you go?

PimpD@ddy

Oh that was my 99th post. Wooohooo. Well here is my 100th. Does this make me a Post Whore?

Ashburner

Yeah, I usually go to Lantrocity... Kevin Roe sits right next to me at work and I've been going since there was only like 15 of us.

I'm a pretty hard core gamer (when I can make the time for it)

We should meet up at one. How old are you BTW

Ash

PimpD@ddy

I have been thinking of going lately. But I forget about it and then I pass it on the weekend and remember that I wanted to go. I am 28. I live in Roseville by Denios...
Where do you work?

PimpD@ddy

Can you make it this Saturday for the meet? We can get together and head down to Elk Grove on Sat?

Ashburner

I work at HP off of Foothills. I try to go but usally have something going on that weekend so I have to plan it at least a month in advance. I think I may have seen you driving around yesterday. If so, your car is pimp!

-Ash

PimpD@ddy

Thanks. You contracting or full-time there? They hiring???
I think I saw a silver CL yesterday, maybe you?

PimpD@ddy

So you have something planned for SAT?

PimpD@ddy

H4mm3rm4n said that if you wanted to come to the meet that we could meet in Roseville instead of Elk Grove. Do you know of any nice places to take a drive around here?

Ashburner

Yeah, I am perm but no we're not hiring at the moment. I think that the only people that we have hired lately are contractors and that is only in the bay area and in Atlanta.

Yeah, I was driving around yesterday and my CL-S is Silver and Stock besides an intake. Hopefully, I can change that soon enough. I've had my eye on a Z06 so who knows...

-Ash

Ashburner

Just got married and moved into a new house in Diamond Creek off of Blue Oaks and Woodcreek Oaks... We're pouring concrete this weekend.

PimpD@ddy

Well congrats on gettin Married and the new house.

PimpD@ddy

Responding to your web site about "So, does anyone ever look at this site, or am I just wasting my time?" I LOOKED AT IT!!!

H@mmerm@n

Sounds like you wont be able to make it to the meet this weekend, Ash. But getting a new house is cool. And congratulations, of course, on getting married.

We should come up with a date for the August meet at our meet this Saturday, so everyone has ample time to check/clear their calendars.

Ashburner

A future meet would definetely be better for me... The further ahead I can plan, the better chance I have of going

Jacobian

So is it still on for tomorrow, 9 am, in elk grove @ Harbucks?

Erik

Norcal CL-s

Yup!

Red Rider

Come on down Jacobian, we need a TL-S to check out !!

PimpD@ddy

Yeah we'd love to have ya Jacobian. See you there.

H@mmerm@n

Jacobian: the place is the Starbuck's at Hwy 99 & Bond Road in Elk Grove. It would be great if you could make it.

As for you Jim, P1mpd@ddy, you'd love him to be there not just to check out his car, but so you get your promised free lunch too!

BTW, I expect to be "strutting my stuff" at the meet. I got the Neuspeed upper strut bar that I ordered a couple days ago, and I will install it this evening.

Norcal CL-s

Hey H4mm3rm4n, Very cool can't wait to see.. I ordered mine last week??? Still waiting I'm hoping to have a chance to wash my baby before the meet...

PimpD@ddy

NO. Actually I would love more people to show up. More people to talk to then just you. j/k And you don't have to buy my lunch, I'm just playin with ya! Hopefully this meet will grow by 2 people this time. COOL! Now we can all check out our mods we got since last meet. Hopefully I can wash my(H4mm3rm4n quote) "P1mpd@ddy P1mp4ge Ride" before we meet. I also shaved some emblems you guys can check out and let me know what you think... See you @ 9AM boys!!!

Red Rider

Hey Sacto dudes, we should discuss a group buy on a G-Tech. They're about $139. $25 a piece and we can move it around. I mean how often would you need to use it. Anyway if you're interested let's do it and be prepared to put up your share. I'm in.
