meet was okay. just got from it right now. there might actually be some cars out there up till now.

lotsa scions and thats mainly all i can remember. an evo, wrx, 2 second gen sevens, and a crazy nice 350z.

my favorite cars were the 350 z, full body kit, wheels, paint, forced induction (i think its a supercharger), and a whole lot more. those things are quick when forced induction is put in it.

my next favorite car was one of the second gen 7s ( i think its second gen, don't know to much about the older generations). it had a, if i remember correctly, a td06 greddy turbo upgrade and greddy type r fmic. guy claims 350 rwhp, still needing some tuning. i believe him tho, i liked his engine bay, not really blinging, just the turbo/intercooler upgrade.

a silver fd with a black hood (carbon fiber?) showed up a little later and headed straight into kk. i don't know if he was there for the meet or he was just craving for a doughnut.

There were actually quite a few cars all together that showed through the night. The turnout was good and I plan on attending again. I don't think the 350z had any engine mods, although it sho was shinny. I think the silver EVO was the fastest car there.

There was a guy who claimed his best run is a 12.2 1/4.

I think in the 1/4 he might have been the fastest, but in a race to 150mph I bet he would have lost to Kai's FD.

Chris that 350Z isn't anything but mom and pops money. The kid is barely out of high school and has owned a handful cars already. The Z isn't S/Ced, just intake and exhaust. Claims that the paintjob is $9k, what kind of high school kid has that kind of money let alone afford the car right? Have you heard it yet? Sounds ricier than the average Civic............. Altho he did say the GReddy TT kit is coming next

Ahahahahah, when he drove by on the freeway Kyle thought it was a Civic until we told him it was the Z. Looking at how focused on show he was, I think that if he had anything under the hood then he would have had the hood up showing it off.

my mistake, dont know what made me think the 350z was supercharged other than i haven't really heard a n/a 350z vs a forced induction one. i guess that was just in my mind because that is what i would do to a 350z if i owned one.

i really liked the 350z, but not so much after hearing where the funds came from. not hating, but if funds were freely availble like that, i wouldve put it into the engine. thats just me tho, i sure wouldn't have paid for a paint job when the paint before it was still new.

evo's are fast. theyi have fast quarter mile times, but a big factor of it is because of the awd launch. trade off is some sluggishness in the top end.

hey! i still had my parking permit haning from my rearview mirror! heh

I know a few Evo owners that might argue that one. Either way, the Evo will never be the pure sports car that the FD is.

You might not be able to pack em in, but the FD will sure attract more girlies then the Evo...

I have to work this Thursday night, so I won't be able to make it down to the meet until 10:30 or so.
