Dude i'm a hardcore cowboys fan but i'm not trying to brawl over the game. I can't stand the eagles and i know you can't stand the cowboys. Let's just leave it at that and get back to talking about cars, beer and *****!!

Is there some way to not have those tools come out? A huge meet would be sick and then to all convoy up to NYC to crash the gumball would be even better.

It was a friendly joke, I honestly don't care what team anyone follows. To each his own. Youll quickly find that I am rarely serious on the forum.
There was a large get together that I went to briefly with johnnyangel a few months ago in KOP and the vast majority of the people that showed up were acting like 16 year olds. It was just lame all around. Cars with no front bumpers, a 70s stake body pickup truck. Uber ghey. I've been to several "huge" meetups over the years where 2 or 3 cars showed up. It would need someone with a good eye for organization and plenty of advanced warning.

Aight cool. When someone types, it is hard to determine if someone is being for real or if they are just joking. I wasn't sure so i went with serious just to be safe. I'm the same way. I definately try not be serious much either.

What if we got a couple people to organize? Make sure when they talk to people that it is strict evos only. Maybe get KHC, CBRD, etc. to put out the word about it as well??

You know karate? I studied for a bit. I shall test your skills at the next meet! If you're up to standard, I'll take you back in time with me!

Lol. No, never karate, almost made brown belt in Judo when I was 14, some Tai Kwon Do with the same instructor and I even flirted with Kung Fu for a few classes. It's been like 10 years since I trained in anything so I somehow doubt it would be effective. I'm looking to take Krav Maga once the baby is born and things settle down a bit. It looks badass and is actually effective. I live in coatesville so a gun or hand to hand combat training is a must.

Well Im down for any meet past March 5th, lol, and not on may 7th 8th or 9th as I am going to hershey for one of those Big Band Shows where lots of different schools compete.

Lame, I know, but im meeting an old female companion there who happens to be in band and is performing.

But otherwise, im pretty much down for any meet, but I rather wait till I have my MR done to join you guys.
That way I can be cool, and i'll be the "1st timer"who could spank everyone, haha.

Speaking of the motor build though, I think im going to build mine to safely run a 35R, unless I go a different route, but I want to somehow keep my A/C and everything and larger will not allow for that, but I'm newb still to anything about building these motors. Help me out.. Suggest me some stuff for a 2.0L build.. running 93 Pump.. and MAYBE meth. Or unless I can get a map setup and run E-85 when out on the track and 93 pump for DD.. if that is possible.

Do a quick search. Theres a ton of good build threads here that I've come across over the years. I run a turbo that's a hair bigger than a 35R and I kept my A/C but I wouldn't suggest it until someone makes a bolt on downpipe or you have a good shop that can fab one. I'd highly recommend meth injection. It's cheap, works great and I never have to deal with finding an E85 station.

Who's down for a huge evo meet in May? I was thinking the 7th, 8th, or 9th?

As for the build, what are your power goals and budget + "oh ****" money. Thats the first thing to realize.

I'm sitting here waiting while my car gets an eyebrow. I like nice shop lobbies.
