Western Meet 1.0 in SLO pictars/video thread

[thebornotaku]

I'll post up what I've got later tonight. Trust me, there's lots from me. Probably 60+ pictures.

[Robaire]

I've got a crappy videos from inside Ryan's car as well as that insane miata.
Other fun stuff.

Also, I've decided to create an award out of that "shifter".
I've yet to decide if it will be functional or merely a mantle piece.
It shall be given out sometime in the future for an, as of yet, undecided achievement.

[TheBourneTaco]

This is relevant to my interests.

[gross polluter]

Whos miata is that? What class did it run in RTA? Never seen that car at any of the events.

[doucheNozzle]

It's Andrew Kidd's. It ran in RWD Modified.

[gross polluter]

That's why I don't recognize it then, it no longer has the top he had at Cal Speedway back in november.

[doucheNozzle]

Yea that was a one time deal he had borrowed.

[thebornotaku]

That's not cass. Not by a long shot. That chick actually has tits worth mentioning.

Thanks again Scotty for putting up with us - I had a blast! Thank your roommates too.

Countdown to next year?

[Krisverde]

How did you not piss off neighbors? Do you have a house at the end? Freaking awesome to see all the volvo's though.

[martino]

great pics, makes me eager for Davis... I'm so bummed I didn't go on the damn drive! Looks like you guys had an awesome route!

and Addicted: thanks for posting all those thumbs! I got to see all the shenanigans I missed from being in the garage all night.

[Robaire]

The neighbors are deaf, we didn't take there spots and we'd have been happy to share beer and burgers.

[thebornotaku]

I am seriously surprised the cops were never called.

Especially with the die grinder and welders and such running at 2am and a bunch of loud ass drunk volvo people outside.

[BrickBaller]

..and a bunch of loud ass drunk volvo people outside.

We weren't that loud. At least not for SLO on spring break. Having the road nearby helps too.

[FattMatt805]

ahahahahaha cvs video is so ****ing classic. im showing it to jessica ASAP

my whoping TWO pictures are uploadng as i type as well.

[BrickBaller]

I can't really appreciate the videos until I pull my computer speakers back out of my car :lol:

[thebornotaku]

We weren't that loud. At least not for SLO on spring break. Having the road nearby helps too.

We were certainly the loudest people outside pretty much all day

[FattMatt805]

We were certainly the loudest people outside pretty much all day

your clearly not from SLO. theres lots of studend housing in the area.

Did you guys hold up traffic?! That's hilarious.

[BrickBaller]

Did you guys hold up traffic?! That's hilarious.

We were stopped for construction - it was down to one lane of dirt road for about 40 feet.

That would have been classic though - stopping in the middle of the highway for pictures!

[745 TurboGreasel]

That would have been classic though - stopping in the middle of the highway for pictures!
As someone who used to live on that stretch of road, you would be shocked at how many tourists from afar do exactly that. We also had people tell us we should turn around because the winding and cliffs were so scary:lol:

[orie]

Yeah, lots of people are scared their car will somehow magically fall off the road or something when they are near a cliff. :e-shrug:

It is really weird seeing myself in other peoples pictures. I look really dumpy:lol:

[BrickBaller]

It's funny to see my car in front of Elliot's... until the 15g went in then all of a sudden I'm behind him in all the pics:lol:

That one leaving Chevron is EPIC! I can tell there will be several demotivators made out of that one.


Also, I need to learn how to host pages and publish like that...

I can't get your vids to play but that's probably because I spilled some failsauce on my keyboard.

[Jerd]

awesome thanks for more pictures! Daniel should be uploading some soon.

I love how those speakers ended up in every picture we took looking out the windsheild!

I haven't pulled them out yet - might run that setup until I get a head unit.

[760T man]

I'm intrigued - educate me. What're you running there besides those little HTIB speakers?

I have a HU for the 244, but it's missing the DIN cage and harness (which stayed in the Caprice, sadly). I gotta have tunes when I drive.

[doucheNozzle]

You talkin' about the Miata? Which one?

It's basically the sound system for my computer.

The two satellites were duct taped to the dash, and the 6" woofer sat wedged between the back of the back of the DS seat and the bottom of the rear seat. Connected it all to my mp3 player and powered it with an AC inverter.

It's not trunk rattling loud, but it's loud enough to be too loud even with the windows down at 75. The bass in your back helps a lot too.

Worked pretty well for a short term solution.

[thebornotaku]

I love how you got a pic of that clean ass 1800ES but not the ferrari near it.

[orie]

I love how when i walked up on that, all i saw was the 1800, until someone mentioned the ferrari.

That 1800es is THE 1800 i want, in every way.

[Cassie]

God damn it, I so wish I could have gone.

[BrickBaller]

You talkin' about the Miata? Which one?

[Jerd]

[twotwodoors]

[Jerd]

[Danyul]

Don't forget Henry was going in for a second drunk and/or stoned hug when said chair made him stumble... :-P

[badvlvo]

Interesting how the common vehicles that have photos posted are a pink Camaro and Andrew's Miata.


This was a great time, I wish I was there for the Friday night shens but had too much to do.

And then there's the clowns who came home on 1 and didn't bother to call. You all drove 50ft from my door!

[Redwood Chair]

Sorry we missed it.:grrr:
We had to get Martino's wounded beast back up 101.
Showing belts by SF on the right front tire, :-D
and blown steering rack by Arcata. :omg:

What? did I miss something? What happened?

[martino]

front ball joints and tie rod ends were in need of replacement before the meet, and an alignment was in order... I said **** it, drove anyway, and installed new components when I got home... it was well worth it!

and now it feels brand new up front :cool:

[doucheNozzle]

Glad you got home safely! Now turn up the boost... :nod:

[martino]

and blown steering rack by Arcada. :omg:

that's Arcata with a t :-P

[Redwood Chair]

[F13ND]

[martino]

Glad you got home safely! Now turn up the boost... :nod:

a few more things to iron out before I start looking for more bewst... but I was inspired by you and Jerd to lighten my wagon up a bit and ... project thread coming soon!

[martino]

Is it a +t?

[amerbritcan]

...looks like a skank...

I call shens, there were no skanky girls in those pictures.

[wagonfetish]

Glad to hear your car is on the up-n-up, Martino, and thanks again for the fresh beer.

[doucheNozzle]

I call shens, there were no skanky girls in those pictures.

Thank you.

K I'm calling you out Robbie. Pics! Vids!

[Danyul]

I call shens, there were no skanky girls in those pictures.

That girl was awesome, she drank some of my beer! :oogle:

I sorta remember that. I was going to ask her if she wanted to bang, but being too drunk I got distracted and wandered off, and she left. The next day chris (brickballer) was telling me about how she was talking of being homeless in San Francisco (and probably has an std ridden vag). I was glad I didn't ask to do it, probably would've been a terrible decision

Yep, I also cut my thumb trying to open a beer for jons girlfriend, and thought it was funny

[BrickBaller]

Yeah sorry about that - I never copied your number from TB PM into my phone. I was a bit rushed trying to get out the door on Friday (12:30 AM Friday morning I was just finishing the valve cover gasket, still needed to pack and go to the dealership in the AM for o-rings).

Next time...

hahahaha dude you're funny!

I remember sitting on the couch and you came in,
"hey, i cut my finger opening a beeeerr." :lol: i was laughing so hard for some reason.

You going to davis?

[urbanwheeler]

Most definitely. I probably wont have a volvo by then, but I will be there for sure. I will probably bring my welder and some tools.

Jons girlfriend didn't seem amused when I cut myself opening a beer for her. I really should invest (or find the one I already have) in a key chain bottle opener. Using the back of a lighter is kinda dangerous, especially when already piss drunk:cheers:

[wagonfetish]

Oh, what sweet memories...
