Haha....it's not that bad man. I think on Ross' TL he spent less than $10 in paint and my buddy's Civic did not cost us anything to do. Very cheap mod to do and a lot easier than I expected.

We may have to plan a meet soon with the way this "winter" has been going. As long as it doesn't rain, we can shoot for a weekend some time in February lol.

Dont do the weekend of the 11th. I am running in the Tough Mudder and most likely will be in no shape for a meet.

The 11th will probably be too soon. How about Feb 25th if the weather cooperates? We just need to decide on a venue lol.

I'd be down to come to a meet. I'd just have to know about 3 weeks in advance since I'm down in Statesboro.

I won't be going to The Varsity meet since the parking situation sucks and my car is still stock lol. Even if it wasn't, once was enough for me. Also, who else will be coming to the Taco Mac meet tomorrow night?

I say winter because, it is winter. It might not be as cold as freaking New York, but I'm not washing my car in 40 degree weather freezing my fingers off. I hate to see my wheels all dirty, and if you have some extra sets of wheels for daily use, why not use them for winter when its cold, and less meets. Hell it might be 70 degree today, tomorrow it might snow lol.

Wow, pretty dead in here. There's no chatter of an upcoming meet either lol. Saturday 2/25 or Sunday 2/26 meet? Or should we wait to see how the weather pans out first?

It has been rather dead here. Not much going on, on my side at least. Think I finally got my stock wheels sold. Going to be so nice having the extra space in my garage. Ordered a ton more detailing products. Really hoping to pick that up in the spring.

As fars a meet up. I may be pretty damn busy with work here soon, but will try to make it out to something.

The 25th looks to be sunny and 65. Then again, the weatherman is known to be wrong too. Also, would it be better to meet up at Caffeine and Octane on 3/4? At least we'd have venue provided lol.

I went to Caffeine and Octane 2/5 an it was ok meet... nothing really great there maybe b/c of weather. All i saw was just avg cars an a few of the same exotic cars that always come support the show. Not bad over all.


I agree with you TY we should try to have AZ meet at Caffeine and Octane ( just pick a month an wake up early )

I agree, At, that Caffeine & Octane isn't that special. I went a few times when they used to hold it in East Cobb at The Avenues and I would see the same cars. We're always having problems getting people together because we don't have a place to hang out or we can't agree on a date.

Spring Mega-Meet @ Stone Mountain in mid-March instead?

My modding has now begun. Just received my A-Spec kit, but need to paint my front lip since they ran out of my color in the base model. Now I need to get coilovers so that I can drop this thing. So I know how you feel about money being tight, At lol.

No.. IA is a big car meet, it’s not like a car show, however the size and as many cars that shows up, makes it sounds like a car show . Just park, walk, observe, and chill. Maybe a $5 parking fee lol. Maybe we can all meet somewhere and roll out together so we can all park at the same area.
