Time to Climb
i'm always on the lookout for another, better opportunity, but they don't exist. i'm sure if they approve the highspeed train/railway then the feds will come a knocking for jobs!

Tyler, April will be here before you know it. Are you getting a Raleigh meet setup soon? Looking forward to the warm weather and meeting up with everyone again.

^I know man! I'm so sorry guys. I've been swamped with school work and such.
I'll be contacting a few places for group pricing this week. Would everybody be okay with a lunch at a wing place or somewhere like Red Robin and then go to a place like Adventure Landing or Frankies for some go-karts and putt putt? That way we can split up and do our thing whenever we want. I'll see if they can reserve some parking spots for us in a section so we can all be together. I'm more than willing to hear suggestions.

Wings and karts sounds great to me. And maybe it's just me, but I think putt putt is always fun...I don't think I've ever gone to Myrtle Beach without playing a round of it.

I'm glad you guys are cool with my idea! I've e-mailed two places about reservations and such. As soon as I hear anything, I'll be sure to post it up here.
And incase anybody hasn't looked at the Charlotte C&C thread, I'm thinking about driving over next Saturday, March 6, to attend the meet. I've never been to a C&C meet and I've been wanting to for a while. Plus this would be a great time to put my D60 to work
If any of you Charlotte guys would like to meet up with me if I end up going, let me know!

No kidding about the activity in here. I was about to bump this thread just because.
Alex - Life's good, I suppose. A lot going on right now, so my mind is always racing...not how I like to be. And because I'm lazy, I'm slow to take action, so I continue to think about the stuff. It's a vicious cycle. But it's so much easier to surf AZ or play video games than do things, you know?
. Oh, and I HATE the weather. How about you; what's been going on?

bought that ATLP base exhaust and picked up some used HRE 540R wheels 
This weather really sucks though, I can't believe it's going on for so long. I moved here to enjoy the warmth, not snow or rain I was going to buy an Xbox 360 this winter but never got around to it. I miss video games Hopefully we can get Sean and Jim to come out to Raleigh for the meet, I haven't seen or heard from them since our last one.

Nice pick ups on the exhaust and wheels! Your car is going to look and sound great come spring when we finally have decent enough weather to get everyone together.
By the way, you want a PS3, not an Xbox.

And you aren't allowed to get the Xbox unless you buy Forza 3 at the same time
Agreed! Alex how are you going to get all of this sweet shit for your car and not put pictures up? Shame on you

Well fellas it's official that I'm coming to Charlotte next Saturday the 6th! Two days before I turn 21. Finally 
I'm hoping a Cars and Coffee happens, but I know that depends mostly on the weather. I've been on the website multiple times during the last week but there is no talk of a meet.
As some of you know, I've been fortunate enough to get some parts on my car. I've added a set of TEIN S-Tech springs and the side and rear parts of the A-Spec kit. I got all of that from JAYDM24 (Jacob)who parted out his car. You guys may remember him, he rode over with Bobbylight83 (Jason) in December. He had a 07 WDP TL that has been replaced with a sexy 05 G35 Coupe. I got both the suspension and A-Spec pieces for $380
I was lucky that both Jacob and Jason were there to help out with the suspension swap. That shit took forever since I stripped a bolt on the strut bar. Because of that bolt, the swap took 13 hours 
Hopefully I'll have the front lip on before next Saturday, but that's pushing it. I FINALLY sold my RJ Legend II's that I rocked to the Charlotte meet in March 08, so maybe I'll order the lip once I receive payment on those.
Have any of you ever eaten at Danny's BBQ? It's at the Concord Mills exit. Being born and raised in Orlando and having one very close to my house, my parents and I made it a weekly trip. Unfortunantly the one in Charlotte is the closest one to Cary. Would anybody be interested in going there with me? I'm not sure how far of a drive it would be from where the C&C meet would be. I thought it might be cool if we all rolled out there together
Here's a link to the Sonny's BBQ website. It's so good...

It's coming the car isn't completed yet cuz I don't have a lip kit and tires for the wheels
Haha I'll be getting the Xbox for sure and Forza 3 is the first game I've never really been a fan of the PS3 and I'm so used to the controller on the xbox it's just perfect.
Pictures are coming, maybe tonight or tomorrow. The wheels are not going on the car for a couple weeks though, gotta get tires and maybe refinish them in a different color...say brushed aluminum with polished lip we'll see, I gotta get quotes for all this $$$$

I'm looking forward to the pictures Alex! That would be sick if you got them refinished.
And I'm sure I'll still be in Charlotte at 2:30 so we can meet up.

I'll pass on Sonny's (not what I consider good BBQ), but I'll be happy to meet up with you guys. Looking at the weather, I'll probably wash the car Saturday, so it'll be nice and clean.

Unfortunately Jon I am! It seems like it will be really nice for a day or two and then we are threatened with snow and nasty weather for the next week.
