I love the Hot wings there as well as the staff !

And as for a route.....I would try to keep it somewhat short because of the Gas prices. I thought the turn out was excellent ! maybe we can see more people there and even a Moderator also. I think it would be cool to see some of the favorites on this site like 3hree5ive0ero, WalkerT, Kristi, Hal, & ZSpectrum, to name a few of whom I haven't meet. except Mackie & Chris.

Some one start a list for next week.
Yeah, keeping the cruise route from getting too long is probably a good idea.

What moderator are you talking about? We haven't had a regular mod in a while. I heard there was a super mod, but not sure what happened to him. And I'm hardly a favorite around here.



I would've gone to the last one, but I had to work - lucky me. I'll probably be working again, so don't expect me to show up for this one.

Um...yeah. my bad. I was just thinking of some representative from the site such as yourself. I guess I should have said an "Admin."

Too bad your going to have to work, ...any chance you can switch days or get out of it ? And you are a favorite around here on the forum and locally. Even Kristi can agree to that !

I'll try to get out of it. We haven't had a meet in forever and when we do set one up, I miss it (after being the first to complain about it ). It's too short notice now to even bring it up with the boss, but I'll definitely try to make it to the next one.

I am, however, off this Friday (as far as I know but the bossman might call and tell me to work). I might go to the drag strip to reward myself, but that's assuming I have gas money for the trip and back (88 mi x 2) plus the race fee ($15).

You really going to go to the drag ? Makie was taking about him and his friend are going. I am on the fence because I am back to stock and it is hot.

I haven't had much time to do anything fun for myself lately and no time to wash the car in a long *** time (until yesterday) due to work and class/lab.

I think I deserve a little break. I'm going to try to go regardless if others will be there or not.

You should go, Travis. Why are you back to stock anyway?

Stock performance wise. I got sick of the HFC+nismo combo so I sold the exhaust and HFCs. I have been rolling on 03 touring 18s that are black but I am putting the 19s back on. I stll have all the other crap on the car.

This Friday. I'll probably leave my house around 5 or so. I live up north in McKinney, so it's a bit of a drive for me. There will be traffic so I gotta factor that in. I also like getting there early to give my car a chance to cool down.

Travis, I knew you were only talking about performance. So what's next for you then?

I have a guy that is draging his feet with a injen dual exhaust. Other than that I have the dual JWT's that are nice for sound. But I have taken them off and on and off then back on.

I was hoping to make the meet so I could hear it on yours. Does it have any drone on the high way?

I heard the Injen is pretty loud. I've only heard on a S/C'd Z in person though (was quiet).

Drag radials, huh? What kind and what size? Can I borrow it for a few runs? I'll heat them up nice and toasty for you. Are they from Brian?

If you're referring to Brian (GolfinZ) then I have them on the stock wheels that came with the car. They're BFG drag radials.

Ah, nice - you've gotten some goodies with the buy huh?

He never got to use them properly. Too bad I couldn't show him how to do it.
