Any Northeners want to cruise down with me? Come on guys. Coldest night and first meet of the year. It will be great. Will feel like 16 degrees with the windchill.

im hoping to get a ride in an evo x with a good tune so i can see if the problem i'm having is because of the stock tune(basically the car just slows down after about 4500rpm. seems like the boost just dissapates)

sorry to hear u are having a problem with your car as well, sounds like a boost leak or one of those weird evoX ecu related issues. i've had my share of problems with my IX though, thats for sure....

lol......i just so happen to have a problem with my car too, when the boost hits you have to shift less than a second later and you're suddenly going 40 mph faster.....kevind says its normal...wtf?


on another note...sean will you make it out?

Well, JJ will be there and we can compare the two to see. If you were coming from a modded VIII or IX, then it would be normal for it to feel sluggish. A few mods and these cars really come alive!!

I won't be making it. My son's birthday was last weekend and the party (with a million little 2-4 year olds) is Saturday so I will be in the mega doghouse if I'm not there.

He did ask where JJ and Justin were though last night

Alright guys,

I read Kelly's suggestion and I totally agree. I will show up early and try "claim" parking spots in the back on Freebirds ("K" on the map) side. But if there are too many cars or I don't feel there will be enough room, I will park across Curtis Mathis Way on the Kincaids ("E" on the map) side in the back (where we always park). But with the prediction of cold weather, there might not be that many cars out there on Freebirds side, but who knows.

Here is the map of the shopping center: http://www.arlingtonhighlands.com/directory-phase1.php

So basically whenever you pull into the shopping center, just keep your head up at the intersection of Retail Connection Way and Curtis Mathis Way.
