Why NW meets are a Joke, my rant that makes sense strangley enoug Options

[dustin15brown]

That's right Dan... I can't wait.... hopefully everything is here by then...... I'm gettin excited....

[creis]

I have to stand behind Clipsetuner on this, wile I'm gana keep my resons out of it. I think nothing bad of any 6gc member but the meet that i was at, maid me feel kinda like the 3rd wheel, not that I was not welcomed or anything.

I have not gone to many meets because of work and I really wana go I mean that but I would like it to be more based on the cars, and checking out what people got, even if its nothing major it does not mean is to small to show off we all have our budgets and I think we all know how costly our cars can be.

P.S. you wont be able to beat me for long, when I get my current projects out of the way, my motor swap will soon follow. (5th gen 3sgte, with turbo upgrade if I get my way)

im the only one who drives to Kennewick

I drove just as far, for that meet.

Please guys, dont fight over who is more dedicated to going to meets, its not worth it, everyone has differant dedications to there life, and it does not matter, what matters is that we do what we feel is right, it that means driving 150 miles to a meet then cool, or it that means that driving 10 miles to a meet is to much then fine I would not hold that against someone, specialy when I dont know all the reasons

maybe I should host a meet, make it about the cars, and about having fun. hopefully get everyone to come and throw in a cruse/bbq, might be just what we NW people need to show the NE/SE/SW/ peeps that we can represent 6 gens just as good.

When its the same 5 cars showing up and nothings been done then obviously the meet wont be about cars anymore

its not our fault that some of us are close friends now cuz weve hit up enough meets and now hang out regardless if theres a meet or not
\

Like i said if u wanna go to a meet about cars then come to a PSTOC meet because then its all toyotas and they stay all about cars since there are new ones each time..but as far aas NW 6gc meets go its just the same few cars showing up that usually havent changed since the last time so its gonna be more about hanging out and getting to know eachother than the cars

[Clipsetuner]

Thanks Creis I agree with you 100percent. I dont think its dedication to wanting to meet, but also somewhat you also just want to hang out with that person(s).

2nd Gen 3sgte with a little work here and there among some other mods.....

Creis - Yea A good BBQ/crusie would be nice if you need any help or anything let me know.

If you want to arrange a meet to hang out just with people in general then why bother even setting something up? If you know these poeple well enough you should have there numbers or PM at least, then making a meet and disreguarding some people. Its not a bad thing you made closer then car friends off the site but why make a meet?

and as far as not getting new mods or anything I dont think Ive seen/read about you gettin any new parts besides projectors.......

DTE

[BlackCelicaGT94]

well as far as ive read u dont even have a 6 gen dustin


and so what if i dont have anything new?! We can still meet up and call it a meet!

Well like ive said a huge Toyota/Lexus/Scion BBQ is being planned by me this summer so come to that if u like


but if u plan a meet ur just gonna get the same people that i do when i plan a meet - go read the events section here..there is going to be an HIN meet and a Tri Cities meet.

These are the people that will come

Orvillescelica
DJSpike
Amysmojo
Coomer
AndyGT4

that meet was all car talk then we went go-karting it was probably the best meet weve had

Can you think of anyone in the NW with anything new besides creis?? NOPE!


and i gurantee if Creis ever got time off work to come to a meet then a lot more car talk would go down cuz there would be something new to talk about...i know were anxiously waiting to see his car

[Clipsetuner]

my 6th gen is a gurantee, Ace is cutting me a killer deal and it is basicly my car, hes not messing with it at all because it would be pointless. I have wanted it for quite a while be I have respected his money situations and he has respected mine. I hopefully should have the car within a few months but if something happens you know Ill respect that.

I will say I having nothing brand new because it is basicly pointless but I have a crap load of parts, 3sgte, FMIC, BOV, Solara tranny, MR2 harness, MR2 ECU, Wheels, tires, body kit, cage, tail lights, most of the stereo / A/V setup, GT4 drum to disc conversion, Seats, the list goes on and I find it kind of funny that even tho I dont have the car I still get the parts for it instead of driving "stock"

DTE

[BlackCelicaGT94]

well thats great that u have the parts cant wait to see the car when its done!


but where do u get off saying NW meets are a joke when u havent been to one since last year?? weve had some awesome meets!!

[BlackCelicaGT94]

if u dont like the meets then make one better but..my question is....how are u gonna make it better??

u cant control what people talk about? Are u gonna entertain us by just meeting in a parking lot then cruising?

we go do some activity like go-karting or bowling to get to know eachother...why just know eachother for ur cars?? get to know people personally...

but u plan a meet and we will see what goes on and who shows

[Clipsetuner]

Gurantee you wont show because of spite. haha

I dont know If I will plan something personaly yet but hopefully creis has something he wants to happen.

DTE

[BlackCelicaGT94]

no ill show up

[creis]

I never like talking about my projects untill there done, that way if the backfire or I stop them there its no big deal, plus I dont like to show off, untill i have something to show off

- I definitly would like to get to know the people behind the cars too, I just would like to get a good chance to see the cars, and talk about them too, I'll deffinity keep in mind all your points, and hopefully cane make a meet we all can like.

I'll see if I can get photo rights to take pics at juanita beach (or some beach) so that we can drive out on the sand and get sunset pics like that (any ideas for good photo spots?), then drive to some place to get food/go karting or something, or find a place to have a bbq.)

current projects:

indash LCD, in din space, custome glove box with sterio and dvd (designing stage) (by july meet i think)
cf shift boot/e-break boot and trd shift knob/e-brake knob (done and sweet)
new fiberglass sub box (more of a wanted thing) (who knows when i will start this)
brimbo drilled brake disks, proformance pads (in the mail) (done by next wednesday)
5th gen 3sgte swap (not for a wile bit will happen, so all motor mods are out untill then sept intake) (long time from now)
arm rest recovering, gray vinyl, (done and sweet looking)
cloth on door panels (recover with gray vinyl) (done but destroyed my door panels and i now need new once ) (fixed by july I hope)
new intake (full cold air from frunt bumper, similar to my original but redesinded to prevent wanter intake) (have the parts, but still desiging) (done by july)

OK COOL, I'll try and plan a sweet meet for ya guys, how about late august?

lol, the problem w/ me not attending some meets is the distance (hence "some") im still only 17 and under the rule of my parents and i have distance limitations. then just other times like p-town meets i do have a life and have other things more important than a car meet, i've made it to 2 meets in the past year and it was good fun, yah. i dunno this summer ill make more of an effort to attend these meets but ill still have school on tuesday-thursday at the local college...
