I highly reccomend going on the next Skyline Drive cruise which will probably be in May ish. The last one was a bit of a flop cause of all the "leafers". But it's a blast none the less!!

There's really no crew, but as stated before, you can usually find any number of us at the freedom wash on south independence on a Friday or Saturday night. Most of us are either military, or work 24-7, so it's not often you get us all together in one place at the same time. Plus since most Z/G owners are an older crowd, we usually don't spend every waking second doing car stuff like when we were kids.

ummm yes and yes...this is highly unlikely of this kid and everyone was in shock to hear it. he says all he remembers is leaving my buddys driveway and then sitting in the back of a cop car. he wrecked like ten mins down the road. he says he got lucky b/c he didnt keep going down the interstate and kill someone.

So Mr Celica guy. Are we gonna get a "No ***** war" gaurantee??
We are all kind of a chilled out, bring our kids and wives to the meetings, family group. And statistically 4 cyl drivers tend to be younger and cocky and feel the need to try to pick races with anything with wheels!! Esp when other cars get around them that may or may not be "faster" then theirs. I'd just like to see this be a positive clean gathering where everyone can mingle and enjoy. Not a bunch of $hit talking, engine bouncing off the rev limiter, people talking smack about their 300hp stock motors. lol
My 2 cents! lol

I couldn't have said it better myself.lol I've never met any of the guys b4 except three of them, and all of them are chilled out. Ones still in high school so iono, but I think hes cool. It's like all you wanna do is meet up and check out each others cars and meet some new people and then there's always at least one person that's dick. Hopefully that wont happen, but you never know. That's a big reason why I'm getting a z in a few months. I feel like celica owners are either old creepy guys, girls, or weird military guys.(no offense to the cool military guys) You don't get all that with z owners. lol Its funny how you can judge people on what they drive...for the most part. Then there's always that one person that you say "they drive that car?"...or am I the only one that thinks that?

I was that old creepy guy when i had my Audi TT and tried to hang with the VW groups(I was only 25, but i still felt old and creepy!! lol)
And +1 to some wierd military guys. I have one living above me, so i know what you mean lol.
I dont' necessarly mind the ignorance. It's usually entertaining. I had a guy at one of our Freedom Wash meets try to tell me that he had a special stock intake installed into his STOCK sentra that gave him 5PSI of Naturally Aspirated boost! At least that's what "his mechanic" said. Then he scoffed at me when i told him i was running 12.9. "That's all?!?!" he then went on to tell me he used to run a 13.2 right off the showroom floor!
The young guys are funny cause they try to pull that crap around people that actually understand the physics and what will produce what, and then get pissed when someone calls them on it. And then don't understand why we aren't all impressed like their other buddies that also haven't cared to take time to actually learn more then how to install a fart can, and primer a perfectly good stock paintjob!
I'm sure Jon remembers the one night there was a dude with a newer black stock riced out V6 mustang coming up to each of us one at a time trying to get us to race. Claiming he had like 400HP and was offering some rediculous amount of money if we won!! He had his GF with him, so i'm assuming that was the reason for all the testosterone, lol.
