Sunday,Sunday, Sunday!

North Carolina TBrickers:

Meet me at the Rock this Sunday, March 2. They open at 10:00, I would think 12:00 would be a good time to get there.
Carshow, burnout contest, and assaults on the 1/4 all day.

Guys I'm tired of being the only big V there, the quaint little Volvo side show ("Oh its a 4 cylinder?!, Volvos German right?, My aunts got a Vovoh"). :roll:

Do you own a Volvo, is it remotely fast, curious as to what it will do in the 1/4? Show the f... up!

Turbobrick 940.............bring it!

StreetMonster,
I just wanna get a video of us headed down the 1/4.... I mean DAMN.

No seriously I'm going to try my very best to be there, weather permitting. I haven't ever managed to meet up with a Tbrick member, so it would be nice to catch up with you...or for you to catch up to me.

Hopefully I can get somebody to film... If I break the bastard I want to relive the moment!

MAYBE we'll have some other support if some 'ahem' other members would step up 'ahem' I know there are more than a few North Cackalackians who seem to disappear everytime something like this comes up...

I'll probably have to drive 5 hours to get a shot at BitJockey...

ROFL... as I said earlier, this is about the only weekend I'll have a chance to get out there. But I need a place to stay as I can't drive out and back in one day...

Call me (828) 301-1491 and we'll talk more...

I'll bring my DV camera and get some footage of you guys whooping up on some rice :)

Robin,
I'm a little over an hour from The Rock... I think putting you up for the night would be cool, then you'll have about three hours home. I'll clear it with the 'rents... got that guest bedroom. I'll clear it and call you...see what's up.

OK man... sounds good.

Just leave a message if you can't get me, I've got class the rest of the day and GSM coverage sucks in concrete buildings...

Fellas,
I wish I had known earlier. I commeted to the State Maryland game on Sunday after church. If something changes I will try to make it. I wold love to see what my Vozilla could do in the 1/4. I turn the 1/8 in the low 8's at around 83-85 mph. and that is when it is just getting started. I also just picked up a 89 780 (with a fresh engine and turbo 25K) and I would like to see what that would do.
We need to set something up in mid week and go to a local track on test and tune night (usually Wed.) and see what we can do. Looking everyone's city it looks like Peidmont drag strip would be the best place.

I own 2 volvo's one goes as fast as your can push it, and the other is N/A, but I love them both. How could I get directions to this meet? I am in Wilmington NC now.

Whaddya think, Eric?

30% chance of rain, showers in the morning... think they'll still have it? The strip near my place closes if theres a HINT of rain... how is the Rock?

I don't wanna drive 4.5 hours to get rained out... :?

Robin,
Yea man, I bet they'll still hold it. I'll be there as long as there is a chance of it being open. Hell Rockingham will let you run 11s without a rollcage...ask me why.

The Rockingham meet was a BLAST! See the off-topic forum for the shakedown.
