Well, if it's any consolation, you still have a beard in my mind. Actually, since I've never seen a picture of you, I just visualized you as a walking beard that drives a blue Evo8, so on second thought with the beard gone you might be dead to me....

Ugghhh that sucks about your ladies car! I wouldn't have been a happy camper if that was happening to me.Originally Posted by adamsheehy
Yeah, j/k. Had an a/c disaster on gf's evo, which involved topping off the coolant (to no avail), isolating the blower motor resistor as culprit, picking up part and replacing, only to have it work for a little while and then go out again, so car is in shop and needless to say we weren't able to make it down there. Heard is was a pretty good turnout though.

You haven't seen irate until you've seen a girl who buys a car at the start of summer primarily because her evo8 a/c was completely shot (amongst other things), only to have the new a/c die less than a month later at the start of a heatwave... Incidentally, (and at the opposite end of the spectrum) when picking up her fixed car today she saw a GGP VIII on the lot and started to cry - she sure does miss her old body style.Originally Posted by evochick88

Stupid job, wouldn't let me attend to any meet on Saturday. I heard from EvoChick how Mohegan was, would have loved to attend the Boston meet though seeing as how it's the closest to me.

It was......interesting to say the least. I was one of the first people there only because we had planned to do dinner and then come back out and hang out with everybody. Among all the cars, I think there was my 8 and maybe 2 more. A bunch of X's, and that's it. We came back out by 8 and half the people were gone. Definitely not as big as they made it out to be and to be honest, there weren't a whole lot of "WOW did you see that car, clean as can be, blah blah blah" moments. The cruise up was great, hanging with friends and being idiots was great, I could of skipped the meet and not have batted an eye.Originally Posted by adamsheehy

At least it gave you an excuse to get out and drive. Although nothing makes me want to wrap a seatbelt around my neck faster than being on the same road with CT drivers, but don't know if you feel the same way. (no offense) lol

I have friends that used to live in Scarborough that moved to Austin, I went to visit for a week. Despite some bizarre things that happened with the friend I was staying with TX was amazing. The food was delicious, the people were all very nice and I loved the hot weather. I'd go back in a heartbeat, no convincing needed for this girl.Originally Posted by adamsheehy

I live in southern Maine, currently in South Portland but I lived in Portland for the majority of the time. I think I've driven through Cumberland but that's about it haha It's a bummer, there really aren't car meets or anything similar up this way.

No convincing needed for me either. We go down at Christmas each year to visit gf's family outside of Houston and have been over to Austin to visit friends as well. Pretty much love everything about that place.Originally Posted by octane88

Now that I think about it, in all the years that I lived in Maine, I can't recall ever hearing about any sort of car meet. What about somewhere over in Gorham? Seems like every single time I drive over there I see an inordinate number of lowered/modified/fast cars around the area. Anything ever happening there?
