^^ +1 hope everyone got home safe. i wouldve to stay longer but my 2 buddies were getting a little uncomfortable with the snow as was i so i just wanted to bypass it. did everyone get all there things done? how did the nitrous come out?

lurch519

nitrous did not get finished. me n chris will have to get together at some point to finished. kevin's (clavius) springs got done. pats (shinka213) sways got put on. benny (lilbenny) got his rear sways, but we couldnt get the mid pipe or front sway done, again ran out of time for the front sway, and we broke a bolt on the midpipe, and didnt have time to get a replacement and didnt want to leave him stuck.

Great meet peeps. Considering there was only one lift we got a good deal done. Big thanks to lurch for the shop time, tools and knowledge and Charles and his girlfriend for making the trip. I hope we didn't make too much of a mess (I think I managed to keep my old fluids off the floor). Hope everybody got home safe.

Nice pics by the way.

It was fun guys. Hey swoop, since I beaned Benny with a snowball, do I get the 10 bucks?

I know you guys love the Black Cherry Mica Spoiler on a VR.

Great meet and nice to meet some ppl Learned alot about how to install things, once lurch started removing bolts everywhere. And we also learned a valuable lesson: if you want to see a spring fly high into the sky, tell Benny to show you how

And for Chris.....wwuuuussss, I kid. I don't think he would've even made it pass the 1st highway. Powersliding, mmmmmmmm........was fun going 60+ on the NJTP.

So that's who that was.

I talked to chris and he was braving it. He was at exit 3 on the tpke and said it wasn't too bad, just the regular white-knucked, ***-puckering ride of summer tires in a lil bit of snow.

chrism

good evening all.....i have made it home alive....driving 175 miles doing 35-45 with white knuckes is a sight to see for sure....im the only tard who would run summer tires, and get nitrous installed in a snow storm....thank you all that showed up.....we got an idea and made it a reality....lets do this more often!

Clavius

Clavius is home alive!!!!!!!!!
about 3-4 hours on the NJ Turnpike.. wtf?!? Chris and I'm sure Benny can attest the speeds never reached over 60. Was scary *** **** attempting to change lanes. Once I hit NYC it cleared up into pure rain though which was nice till some dumbass bitch decided to be kewl and leave her highbeams on and decided to get really close with my baby's *** (she didnt hit it if so you would of heard some some massive road rage by a MA man on tonights news hehe). Once I hit CT the snow came again.. the same type of snow we had down in DE. I have a picture showing my car's front nose covered in snow was very I dunno funny/amusing I guess. After I hit New Haven, CT it cleared up nicely and I hit the gas.

New Suspension observations, as I told Chrism every so often feels like the *** end is bumping up and down like a lil low rider if you will. I'm assuming its the springs and such settling in but it wasnt major or scary just slightly annoying as my head kept on hitting the damn seat. Body Roll is pretty much eliminated compared to what I had previously, and its definatly tighter in the turns. Car hardly feels like it wishs to drift outwards if anything it was egging me on "Come on bitch I can take it!!!" haha.. um whatelse before I forget Oh yeah, in theory we shall say (the man is watching me remember lol) around 105mph the car (in theory) shakes violently could that just be the tires if say it was only 30 degree's out or would the car just need a new alignment? Keep in mind in this theory of mine the car has 16's and Avon A/S's. Thoughts inputs on this theory question of mine so I dont waste my money on something I dont really need. I'm pretty much broke after spending close to 2k within a months time on my baby(thank god my family doesnt see my bank statements ).

Ahh yeah lastly.. Thanks Chuck/Jay/Benny for doing this up. Trust me if I actualy physicly helped we'd still be there. I know my mechanical limits. And lurch send me your paypal so I can make a donation to the "Thank you Lurch for the use of your shop fund."
I'm off to bed now I'll post pictures tomorrow and other thoughts when I'm more coheartnt.. (yeah its 2:45 like I can spell that fuquing owrd!"

SilverEIGHT

How do you do that?

shinka213

morning everyone..

CRH and his girl left my humble abode about 15min ago on their way back to Michigan...
Ray mentioned a return trip possibly on Easter weekend....I explained about the holiday piece and suggested it might work if they drove in on friday and stayed over and we had the meet on saturday..that would leave Easter sunday open for family festivities for anyone who celebrates...

of course this would all be predicated on the availability of the shop>>

I will try to post up some pics later tonight...
