I hope this is OK to post here.

I just wanted to invite everyone out to Cigar night at VTR. We do this about every other month. If you like smoking cigars and hanging out with other auto enthusiasts, this is a fun event.

We are also in the middle of our holiday food drive. We challenge auto forums to donate and then weigh the totals and see who is the most generous forum.

Hope to see some Z's out on the 20th!

Thanks
Wayne

 

Great idea guys, any more info on your food drive? What types of things are we encouraged to bring? The gamers that go to PDX LAN in portland just raised over 5700 lbs of food for the food bank there, if gamers can do that imagine what a huge auto enthusiast community can do!

 

here is more info on the food drive:

Wow 5700lbs is impressive. Last year we donated 3996lbs. Would the Z forums be interested in there own food barrel?

 

only if there's enough interest so we didn't get entirely dwarfed by the other forums

if not, my donation will go to the subie barrel.

 

how about the other VQ family can us G's come along to?

 

not restricted to any makes or models sir. vtr is an auto enthusiast shop. I'll be there in my camaro, and my pal will be in his rx7.

 

i might come up to chill. dont smoke tho, am i gonna get flamed lol?

 

nah dude I don't smoke either. I wanna see your build!

 

if its done me and the wife will probably head up. was all put together and done and was getting ready to get some tuning done on the dyno, but when they were going to build the base map it kept throwing a cam timing code.... end result exedy sent the wrong flywheel sent the 03-06 so theyre over nighting one thatl be here tuesday. drop everything throw that in and then make an adjustment to the charge piping on the left side so i can fit my bumper on and it should be done!

 

Can't wait to see some nice Z goodness this saturday.

Here is an update on the food drive.

Evo forums 63lbs.

Subie forums 223lbs.

that was fun. sucks that LX forums will probably win again : )

 

On the bright side you get a better clutch for free...

 

Great to meet some new people, thanks for coming out you guys.

Here is what we donated for the food drive. We would like to invite the 350z forums to join in the food drive next year.


LX wins again!

Here are the totals,

LX 1088lbs.

Subies 440lbs.

Scion 103lbs.

Thank you very much to all of you who took the time to go out buy food and then drive to VTR and donate it. I know this is not easy and we really appreciate it. Every year your donations help a great number of families have a better Thanksgiving. Next year we are going to be stepping it up and inviting more forums to join in the food drive.



Thanks

Wayne and the VTR crew.
