Yup, ran the last 3. Not great but respectable.

LMK if you plan on doing the Dec 10. If so email Claire and have her give you a heads up before they post it fror all to sign up.
Talking about doing the 3.1

d-townhakuzo

Well, started on my 105k service on Monday in my tech class because there would have been nothing else to do. Unfortunately I only have about an 1 hour and a half of actual working time a day and I had to do nothing one day waiting for that 50mm crankshaft tool to come in, so the car's still in the shop. Hope to finish it all up monday.

NAiL05

My tip to you....take off the crank pulley hit it on and set it in time. Saves you headaches later on. make sure it is on top dead. You will need to remove the upper cover to get it in time.

So umm londoner tonight i be back in town yo

dark_elite2005

whats up? new to this forum wanting to join dfw acura club how do i go about doin that?

Rick_TL-S

Not really a club, just a group of enthusiasts. There's no sort of requirement to join, either. Just come out to the meets when we post 'em up. Normally meet at the Londoner in Addison on Saturday evenings, but we do put together other meets every so often.

dark_elite2005

Ahh I see I could probally make it there I have a 01 CL-S want to see other ppl that have a intrest in acuras

NAiL05

ughhhh 800 more pics to go not so fun. However SEMA was awesome!

TrojanTSX

What time do ya'll usually meet up? Is this every Saturday?

Rick_TL-S

We meet up anywhere from 7-7:30 usually. We'll have to start posting it up more here to give you guys a couple days notice. NAiL, Trance, & myself are usually there with occasional appearances by imj & other members.

NAiL05

And we sometimes have a starbucks meet the following sunday morning if we wake up from saturday.

TrojanTSX

Always wanted to go and try the Londoner. We will see how I feel after my car show this Saturday about coming out and meeting ya'll.

NAiL05

no body even responded to this?

NAiL05

Depends too far out to know.

Rick_TL-S

We are the furthest members from those cities & I believe we made it clear most of us would not be able to attend a GTG this year, so the Big As Texas meet was pushed to the Spring.

Thus, you guys went ahead with another Tri-City meet in its place. Not sure why you would expect any of us to reply unless you were expecting a bunch of "No's".

I will already be down there for Cupcake Meet this Saturday; I can not afford to make another trip down there.

TrojanTSX

I responded to the Tri-City Meet thread. Not sure if I can make it since I do not know exactly if I am going to San Diego for Christmas or not.

NAiL05

Yep...its close to holiday season...i am also working that week so no go for me.

Rick_TL-S

I'm sorry you seemed to have taken offense.

NAiL05

NAiL05

Good turnout but the vehicles might have not been up to par? Dunno lol

NAiL05

So londoner tonight? Might as well right lol.

Rick_TL-S

I would normally man, but just got home from the trip, & 4 hours in the car is a killer on my knees.

NAiL05

Yea I kinda figured. I think E is doing some family stuff. I guess Im just gonna go out grub and come home.

d-townhakuzo

Anyone wanna give me their opinion on getting an 08/09 STI? I was talking with my mom and since I'm more than likely definitely going to KU (univ of kansas) and she was going on and on about how she would want me to have an AWD. This is just a feeler, I haven't really looked into anything yet, but just wanted to know what you guys thought.

Nikonfan

Hi Everyone! I am somewhat new to the forum here and glad to see that there is a DFW group. I would love to come out to some of the meet ups. I didn't read all 172 pages of this thread but from the last few pages it looks like Addison is a popular spot to meet. Can anyone tell me if there are ever any meet ups on the Tarrant County side of the metroplex? You know how us Ft. Worth people feel about getting to close to Dallas LOL.

Rick_TL-S

Just a few of the CCM photos I'm going to share online. It was a good turnout, but I was disappointed in the quality of the cars as well as the general attitude of the people there & their complete disregard for safety. I had not once saw such a high police presence at a CCM meet & when I left to see 4 people pulled over on the road for speeding/burning out/etc., it was pretty clear to me that if I do ever drive down south for a CCM meet, it will be more than just the meet itself. There was a drifting issue that had me very concerned as well.










The rollout & drive back were definitely fun, though.

Nokiafan.

Yea most meets are in the Addison area because the majority of the members here live in the north Dallas area.

Although there are a few that live in Tarrant County, such as myself. We kinda planned on a meet in Grapevine or Southlake a while back but I guess that fell through the cracks.

Where do you live?

What was wrong with the cars that were out there??? It's a car meet, not a car show! It's purpose is to bring all car enthusiasts together no matter if its a old beat up zip-tied 240sx or a clean off the lot nissan GTR.

The part about safety and the people getting pulled over, you can't say it was CCMs fault. There's always gonna be some numb nut who thinks he's cool or tries to show off by burning out (like the white mustang) or racing out the lot. You can make rules all you want, but there's always gonna be someone breaking it.

I do agree about the drifting part. It was entertaining to watch, but at the same time I kept on constantly thinking "what if someone loses control and slams into the crowd?" There wasn't anything for the crowd to stand behind, and people were literally 15-20 feet away from the cars as they were drifting.

All in all, I believe it was a good turn out. Police were probably supposed to be out there to make sure nothing gets out of hand, and if it did, they would be able to respond asap.

trancemission

I agree with this. You'll always have somebody.

I went to the CCM meet about 2 years ago in here in Dallas. I got the impression that bringing a Lotus was the wrong idea. I wouldve got much better feedback if I just brought my TL.

What really pissed me off were the comments people were making when I was driving out with my daughter. Turned me off enough that Ill never make one again.
