ViperNC Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Nothing but fun..... when the road is not covered in ice and snow. That sounded like a Subaru WRX (camera car). We've had some crazy winter weather in Spring down here this year. Normally, you would not see snow this late in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Bishop Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 First off those guys are just plain nuts...... I didn't realize they still had snow on the ground out west! I have to agree with the Viper, we are no where near spring here yet. Even in the Piedmont (central NC) it was in the mid 20's overnight and will be for the next couple of evenings. Right now its sunny out but only 32... Some one should really string up that damn groundhog! I'm still trying to swizzle my schedule so I can join the group.

I'm very optimistic on Vic. Should the update your requesting include a "booked hotel" for you? Since you drive the slowest it might be best to get a room now before they are booked up. Last one there buys the first round remember..........LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thinking of carbon fiber such as you have done and want to see yours in person. Who did you get yours from and are you happy? Cliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last one there buys the first round remember..........LOL I seem to recall last year when we grouped up out of NW St Louis you were in my rear view mirror all the way to Hermann. Jim, I have been putting up with Scott for 5 years,then he got Cliff to join in last year, so I guess now you have the Don bug too. Cliff, who was that guy who originally wanted to do the Dragon on Easter????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViperNC Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Viper I am hoping you can make it. I am thinking of carbon fiber such as you have done and want to see yours in person. Who did you get yours from and are you happy? Cliff I'm still trying to figure out how to pull it off, but if this crazy weather continues into spring the group may want to back it up to the alternate date in hopes of dry roads and warmer temps. All the carbon is from TruCarbon out of Las Vegas. I installed it all myself, but the rear diffuser was a bitch. The 2010 and up cars have a two piece rear bumper cover and the diffuser is a bolt on piece which would make your install a snap. 2007 - 2009 is a one piece bumper cover so you have to get some quality 3M acrylic two sidedautomotive panel tape and adhere the carbon as an overlay on top of the plastic cover with bolts drilled in at the bottom. It takes a rediculous amount of patience, a careful touch with a heat gun, and a lot of beer. The rest is all using factory clips, nuts and screws. Adds a subtle curb appeal with out too much "look at me" bling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gt67 Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Jim, Scott and Cliff are two of my best friends and when we're together it is truly entertaining. I know you will fit right in. If you drive 75 -80 MPH that would mean you'll be buying the first round because I'll already be there waiting for ya. Some days I'm not sure how I drive either, but the room is booked and I am looking forward to the drinks you guys are gonna buy me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Pony Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 "Looks like we got us a convoy"... Sorry I'll miss this trip - our anniversary and the wife's birthday during that week! What day are you headed up? I will try and meet up with you guys at the McDonald's at 8:30 am and escort you to the Georgia border! I'll bring some T-shirts along for those that want them and try to get my daughter to bring her camera for some "on the road" photos as well! Sam Sam, Wish I could make this trip as well. Not in the cards this year. When you meet with Jim, give him a "Large" shirt for me and I will give him what ever the cost is. Thanks, Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumors Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 Not a Michigan fan...........am a Michigan State Fan! We have to hope for nice weather as my schedule is getting tight. This week will be in Chicago a few days. Next week will be in Pittsburg for 4 days. Then of course the cruise the following weeked. Reason we cant have a bad weekend weather wise is im heading to Alberta first week of May for Spring Bear Hunting trip with my bow.............. :happy feet: Pray for warm, sunshine weather the weekend we picked as the alternate weekend will make it hard for me to push into schedule.
