I prefer Slideways... Next time, I'll tag you first.
So, you live the sidewayz crooked lifestyle? I voted no on 8. Sorry.

So vinny, When are you going to trade me?
How about... My front and rear seats, GTA rims with street tires + old Drag radials, for your wheels?

Re: Mels - Folsom - Jan 11th
Looks like you guys had a great time. The cars sure looked great, but I wouldn't mind seeing that show stopping Tercel, LMFAO! Oh well, here's looking forward to the next meet, I will try again.

Re: Mels - Folsom - Jan 11th
That is a phat trade but the seats I really want are the ebony Camaro ones from 98+, if I had a GTA again I'd be all over that...
I am pondering buying new wheels though...
----------
That thing parked next to Joey and was like "wassup now"?
You can see a headlight in one of the pics...

Yeah, it's my driverside turbo. It just yelled really loud when I got on it and hit about 7psi and up.

I hate the two-tone with them. I think I am going to go all white when I get it repainted. Then I will grab some wheels like yours in black and be your opposite... Haha.

Get them powdercoated like Del's in Black.
If I had it to do over again I would do that because that would be so easy to maintain. Trying to keep up with polished billet sucks worse than Pamela Anderson's last movie.

Re: Mels - Folsom - Jan 11th
I got home at midnight last night. There were a ton of cops. Lol my alarm clock went off and i was like "Oh (Curse word) its Monday" Worth the drive though, I don't have to keep the tires on my porch anymore. You guys like my exit? My suspension is so bad now that any acceleration it will fish. I was not burning out like the rest of you, that some how got by that cop on the corner. I was driving normal...lol, oh well. Like i said tax time soon. Thanks for the sticks boss.

Re: Mels - Folsom - Jan 11th
I really did have a blast. Thanks for getting everything started and letting me come a little early Traviz, I appreciated it.
Vinny made me jealous, I need a t56 now. Crazy driver. Type of person who really should/needs good insurance... haha. You got luck with ray Charles as well.
And for the Show Stopping Tercel. Damn. Made Ramair21's sweet camaro look bad as well as the rest of us... And how about that Miata ehh, he showed us all up.
So... Whens the next meet?

That Miata was all hopped up on IloveTeriyaki and Initial D, he definitely showed us a drift session.
I've said it before but the T56 is one of the best mods I have done to my car, it is the only choice for manual transmissions IMO.
I agree with Chris, FEB. meet!
Eddie the Echo?

Vin, Darienne says she thinks she likes yours better than Dels now.
His has been her favorite for years. Maybe one of these days I can get her into one.

Don't know if they'll let this 'bird into lane 7 on that Camaro night.
Joey, you wanna run 'em that night, or maybe a TNT in Feb.?

It's all good, there's a reason why this quote is in Vin's signature block:
"When the silver bullet and black beast get together though, it's like 10 thirdgens encompassed into 2." - OUTATIME GTA
Haha... Either way, del wins.

There is a big reason why I have that quote in there, that pic you attached explains it all bro!
I can't hate on the Silver Bullet one bit though, been on the bandwagon for a while
Joey hit me up I left you a msg

Well, I think you're back on top. We were just looking through the pic, beacuse now she kinda wants one and wanted me to look for one. She says she thinks maybe she does like yours more, she likes them both.

Re: Mels - Folsom - Jan 11th
Wish I could tell you an exact number, my speedo no workie
Guesstimation around 20 babying it, but me driving in town and around losers, prob like 15.
Favorite thing is with my rear gears, 6th gear, barely on the throttle ~2200 RPM = ~85MPH and I love it!

Re: Mels - Folsom - Jan 11th
O yeah, I fixed my headlights too. I rebuilt one and replaced the other and got lazy and didn't rebuild it which put a strain on everything so they wouldn't go up. Well, I rebuilt it at school (boring ROP welding class) and they go up smooth as butter (like Dels)!
