NOTFWD's weekly meet thread (updated every week)!!!

Sorry for asking you guys to sign up for YAF (yet another forum), but we like to keep our spots from being overused. I know some of you are already on NOTFWD.com!!!

Saturday 4/26 meet thread: http://forums.notfwd.com/index.php?showtopic=1439

DO NOT DRIVE LIKE AN @SSHAT WHILE YOU LOOK FOR US OR ARE WITH US. ALSO: NO BURNOUTS. NO REVVING. NO "DRIFTING". NO STEREO BLASTING. NO LITTERING.

Here are the meet rules:

Here are the drive/tour/cruise rules (being developed all the time):

If you don't have one already, bring an FRS (e.g. Motorola Talkabout) radio that can do privacy/security channels. You'll have a much better time during the cruise.

Here's more information on the radios...

http://www.gmrsweb.com/codetable.html <- CTCSS/Privacy/Security code translation table

Whatever brand you get, make sure it's got the CTCSS/Privacy/Security codes so you can talk with us.... so far the three interoperable brands appear to be Cobra, Midland, and Motorola. (Their privacy/CTCSS codes match).

Cheaper FRS radios only have channels 1-14. FRS radios with the CTCSS/Privacy/Security sub-channels have channels 1-14 with subchannels 1-38 in each main channel, ala 1^1-1^38 - 14^1-14^38.

You can still listen into conversations on equipment that doesn't support subchannels, but you can't speak/broadcast.

If we get a big turnout for the drive, we can't hope to keep 30+ cars together as one group. Traffic and lights will interfere. The only way to keep everything together is to split things up into smaller groups led by people who know the course well.
when it's time to cruise, line up in the shortest line of cars. This will help even out the groups and help everything go smoother. Pretend you're at the checkout lane in the grocery store

Know which car is leading your group and follow THAT CAR wherever they may go.

The group leaders will be pointed out in the driver's meeting before we leave.

Doing these things will make the cruise go much smoother and SMOOTH = FUN.

Remember: You are responsible for what you do behind the wheel and on your bike!

If this is Ty, you're a ricer.

Else, nevermind. exit 1

sweet looks like just the place for me.

I know you guys have an Evo meet at Busse Woods earlier in the day, but feel free to join us afterwards if you're itching to drive!

Our meet spot is about 15 minutes from Busse!!!

That was a good time. Thanks for the sweet pics.

ch, ch, check it out!

It is a lot of fun! And we have owners and FANS! Anyone is welcome! Just know that a FWD car wouldn't necessarily be featured in any of our media (pics/vids). So you can come out, just don't park smack dab in the middle of a bunch of notfwd-mobiles! :)
