6G Celicas Forums

I'm totally down. I'm really hoping that things clear up a bit in the autumn months, but not holding my breath.

Pics or it didn't happen.

Beautiful build process. I always appreciate people who take their time and do things "right".

I'm probably out till COVID blows over (if ever - lol). We have some family members that can't afford to get it. I foresee things spiking when school starts back up, so we'll see.

We're still here.

Can't wait for the next meet. It'll be the first time that my daughter will witness the pure sexiness of a Celica. We saw a super clean third gen MR2 in the Costco parking lot and she liked that it was yellow. lol

VPN's are your friend. lol

My parents bought a 2015 Camry XSE (V6) new, put about 40K miles on it and then sold it to my grandparents and it just sits in their garage. I'm working on persuading my grandparents to sell it to me - fingers crossed.

Agreed.

Just got a commission check... I sure wish I had time/space for a cheap project car in my life. Good luck man!

How's work been? My dad's a tech in Valparaiso (Valpo), Indiana and he said it's been really slow and was pretty slow even before the virus started to spread into the US. I was talking to him last night and he and his other coworkers agreed to each take a day off a week. I asked him if he knew why and he said he doesn't know - other than people just not having their vehicles worked on. He also mentioned that it's been a pretty mild winter, so that doesn't help bring vehicles in with issues. Some of the local stealerships in town only have one or two techs working too, as it's slow for them too. He works in a pretty high end shop too - weird.

I have the luxury of being able to work 100% from home, just like I do in the office. It's REALLY nice not having to drive an hour round trip every day, put gas in my tank, and put wear and tear on my soon to be 20 year old vehicles.

We'll probably have to push this till late summer (assuming the current path of the virus).

Not the biggest fan. That's just my $.02.

Yeah, don't bother getting junk like that, you'll hate yourself for it. Save a bit more and get something that doesn't need much.

Ditto.

I did this a few years ago and it was the most fun I had in a while (I used to race go karts nationally). It was practice, one heat, and one big feature race. I wasn't used to the adrenaline and abuse in the karts, so I almost threw up that evening when my body started catching up. haha!

It included EVERYTHING. I had my own suit and gear, but they have everything there that you'd need. It was only like $80 for the day. SOOOO much more than you get with any indoor place and it was a complete blast. There was probably close to 20 people racing. I think I may do this again this year for my birthday regardless.

Sorry to hear about your car getting stolen... It was obviously never found?

I'm cool with all of that, you should just formally set it and pick a place to meet. I'd prefer not to drive around too much once we're there, but that's just me.

My life story...

lol

I'm only about two hours from Devil's Lake, so I'm down.

I vote for Starved Rock because I'd love to take my daughter on the trails, through the water, and on the stairs of death.

I'm local, so I'll be just coming for the day.

I'm down for any of those dates. Let's make this a good one.

I was just about to say the same thing about the dielectric grease, I'd pack em and then you never have to worry about them.

Don't you break it!
