That is awesome. Why does it have to be when my niece and nephew are visiting from CT. I will still go just probably not all day then. Would have been great to be able to host a party because of it. Hopefully it stays in Charlotte for next year.

Great to see you guys last night!! Sorry I had to leave early. I'll make an effort to get to a bunch of these, but odds are they won't be late nights for me. Too much to do!

Definitely was a good time last night. Great to be able to catch up in person. Recently we have been keeping them shorter actually mostly about 4-8 or 9. We actually left last night at 8:30 so you didn't leave much earlier. Definitely hope to see you at some more of them.

But it was definitely good to catch up

Yeah, the tabs were a bit much, but only because we did it every week. Once a month would be nothing. Still, I'd rather spend $20 a week than $60 a month.

I'm excited for this, nice to not have to travel far however (at the risk of sounding wayy older than the whopping 26 yrs old I am) I am NOT looking toward to all of the traffic and extra police presence (aka massive tickets) that this event is going to bring!LOL. I live 5 min from the location and anytime there is an event there the roads are straight gridlock. The highway leading to it is under construction, looks like no end in sight so the speed limit is 55 and down to 1 lane many times of the day :/ aggravation!!!

Welcome to the forum! You haz TL!? I used to live in the university area but moved away. My brother almost lost his life the other day on 85 north right near mallard creek. Managed to get into an altercation with a pink semi truck in his girlfriends TSX. Luckily they're ok. haha The concord police are going to have a field day when all the cars arrive that weekend. I honestly don't think they'll even know what's about to happen.

Oh hell, my friend lost his life same time last year on 85 near that exit.
Bad motorcycle accident. Gotta be aware of everything
out there.
Well IA may not be that bad, seeing that they have Nascar or whatever out there with thousands attending.

Sorry to Hear that truly sucks! I'm not sure which part of Charlotte you are from, but I live right by concord mills so it's pretty much a hop skip & a jump... When they have nascar races it turns into a nuthouse. They send home notes in my sons school to make arrangements picking up ur kids bc the traffic is so bad. One time I went on a normal 5 min ride and it took well over an hour! NASCAR isn't so bad bc most of those ppl have big RVs and post up and stay there... Wi IA every1 is going to be in their own cars, coming and going, plus the main little strip of chain restaurants is right there so I'm sure there will be plenty of DWIs goin on... Madnesssss lol

Yea the turnout was cool. Alot of scions which im not too fond of but the Resident Evil one was pretty badass. Mine are Both anthracite. Its just going to be a show. Throw some 20s on, camber kit, body kit , maybe some coil overs or air depending on how much money my kids suck out of me for their bdays... little kids are the worst at that! Lol... it has some sort of iPod connection that I can't figure out for the life of me and an exhaust but not sure what kind going to put it on the lift at my husband's job this week

Oh wow that's unfortunate the hatch was totaled. You have a picture of it? Glad he's ok. His children would be sad.

That's awesome you've got two TLs now. Looking forward to seeing what you do to it.

Yeah when i was working at the lego store the kids would usually win the battle lol. The parents would huff and puff, but then be like well he's a good kid, he deserves it.

There are a few choices for exhaust systems now for the TL. A long time ago I had a comptech and it was pretty nice. Now there are some ATLP and Greddy systems.
