-i'll give ya a buzz.

I haven't seen syonyk post here yet..... i'll have to drag him in here.....

OK... now that we got some ppl in the thread I guess it's time to pick a location as that's usually the easiest to do.

I vote for Cedar Rapids b/c its kinda the middle stomp'n ground. The ppl from Des Moines/Ames can roll down together if they like too.

Also bring friends and car enthusiasts.

I can certainly meet up in CR given a few days advanced notice and good weather! My car is afraid of rain.

CR is cool with me again. If my car starts, I will be there. If it doesnt start, then I will have to drive my protege and you can all make fun of me for being a ricer.

Hey all,
I just got on this forum again to check it out. I don't really know any of you, but I would be willing to attend a club event if you guys have one in the Cedar Rapids area. It sounds like you guys have some cool cars. I have an '88 RX7 that I will bring. Keep me updated.

Don't other people from Iowa want to join you?

Hey there ambassador! Get these guys down to Indy!

My house is open if you all want to come down Thursday to break up the trip. I've offered the same to the WI and MN guys.

I will be there. I just bought an 84 GSl-SE so I may bring that. If not my buddy and I are taking his audi s4.

As for the getting together Im up for it. Date doesnt really matter. I think that my parents are going to be gone the last week in April so maybe we could have it at my house.

Didn't realize it was that soon.

How much is registration at the gate since it looks like I missed the online?

I'll head down with someone as a passanger.

Rob- is your friend's S4 a Blue one?

I'm up for one anytime in late April or after that. Cedar Rapids works for a meeting place too for me. I'll be finishing working on mine within a week or so, so my 93 should be fully functional. Just let me know when and where.

I saw a flyer and it was saying street legal mufflers and tires for alot of that stuff. Does "muffler" mean exhaust? If so, mine isnt exactly legal.

This sounds like fun, and (obviously) CR works for me. I'll give it some thought and see if I can come up with a good location. I assume a nice park is the place of choice. Noelridge maybe? Could also go out to Palo to Pleasant Creek, or Thomas Park in Marion. Other ideas?

I'm interested in the muffler thing too. Both my cars have cats and are pretty quiet (FD has exhuast leak by turbos). I would assume that be good enough.

I'd be up to see how slow my **** is. Steve says it's a blast to go down. I've actually never been to the strip.

they really dont care that much down there i think the most they check for is nitrous to make sure its all hooked up right and a battery tie down but other than that you should be good to go if you wanted
