Next Local Pittsburgh Meet

Local Pittsburgh Meet

Saturday October 18, 2008
7pm waterfront behind Lowes AMC Theater
Then latter 8:30ish at Miracle mile shopping plaza.

Looks like Saturday meet is a go unless the weather sucks. We'll be meeting at the waterfront at 7pm and then roll out to Miracle Mile area about 8pm to have dinner at El Camps or mad mex.

After that we'll have some stock turbo match ups out that way that we've been trying to get set up before winter.

Post up if you plan to attend.

So far:
Evolved
Travmann
Mondobongo
Evodan
Dennyt4
TheGame

cosworth compensation

I'm in for at least the Monroeville part. I Probably won't come to the waterfront. really no point. Actually, if everyone on the list is coming to Monroeville anyhow, why don't we just have the meet there? If the turnouts anything like last time, that means only a few of us.

Yeah I was thinking the same. What got me thinking was the DSM guys from buschur forum had posted meeting at the waterfront.

I was going to post on their forum and ask but you have to get approved to post over there.

I'll let you know.

A couple guys had also said they were in for the waterfront and I didn't want to change location without at least discussing it here.

It'd be better then last time since we'd get to check out Denny and Erics new builds. Haven't gotten a chance to see them yet.

What do you say Brian. Stock IX vs StockISH X?

Let me get a tune to even up with you... We could still go, but I'll almost gaurentee you'll win. On the other hand, a tuned IX vs a tuned X - that would be something.

I'll flash her back to stock.

Thus far I got a easy win against MondoBongo. I atl least need the challenge of a new X.

I cant believe you guys are going to street race , and put innocent people in danger. keep it on the track . Roll racing is for losers. I mean what does it prove , that one car has more power than the other I mean who cares anyway!!!!

Evo's are not made for acceleration contests. They are rally cars remember????

An easy tie in a straight line you mean. Besides, we know how the chips fall when there are turns involved.
