Well, we didn't get to 555 post on the other thread since they restarted the i-club forum. So here's another chance, lets get started:-P



Seriously though, this is a thead for posting about the friday night meets in Rockville.

 

Tom:

We are still working on that thread on the other board.

I hear a lot about the Rockville meets. I'd like to hit it up some time. Alot of my friends go so if i could get some info i will try to get down there some time.

 

Right now I'm out of town (down in Florida). I plan to return this weekend sometime, so I probably won't be able to go to a meet until the following friday. I don't know what everyones been doing for the past couple weeks cause I've been gone since Nov 17th. All I can tell ya is, we've got a great group of i-clubbers that meet up on friday's. I'm not sure what future meets are going to be like, since the weather is getting colder. We'll just have to play it by ear. That's what this thread is for... any ideas, just post here. We've even met up at Dave & Busters...



...... Yeah Dale, we're working on it:-P

 

I was wandering... can we get a head count???

I've only seen a handful of the regulars. Did most of you change your names???

 

im in if we could get something started, i get my car this week, if all goes accordingly

 

seems most of the regular Mid-A group have been on the other board rather than this one.

we should talk about it on a Friday night sometime. I don't think I've been over there in a month. It's getting really too cold to sit out there. Maybe if my Prodrive muffler ever comes in I'll show up to show you guys.

Well, I figured out what you meant by the other board... a while back. This is the first day I've posted on this one since the last post.

 

I am here and there, best way to see if I am there is to call my cell.. I'll try to check up on you guys now and then.. B&N is just around the corner from where I live anyways, so it's pretty much my backyard.

It's been slighty cold to be standing outside for more than 1 hour just to talk.. there are warmer places to chill out during the winter, any suggestions?

We've been eating out and going to Dave & Busters lately...

 

Tom:

I don't know if I'll be there next Friday. I slid into a curb today in my own neighborhood and my car is currently undrivable with the drivers side wheel pushed back into the back of the wheel well. My STI v2 front air dam is history, it is currently in four pieces. The front bumper that was already damaged is now cracked completely through on that side so glad I didn't have the previous damage fixed.

Did you try to drift the car while in the snow? It seems to be very tempting isnt it? Well, I pulled a 180 last month and my rear tire bounced off the curb (lucky me) but I was pulling the car out of a donut manuvuer and there was in-coming traffic, not a smart thing for me to be driving 40+mph on 3rd gear in the snow while I have plenty of things that I could have hit. One thing for sure is that left-foot braking is an awesome technique in loose pavement.


I hope your car is back to normal soon, I would hate to have my WRX out of commission for a while.

What I did was totally stupid. I came too fast into a right angle corner that is also going down an incline. As soon as I had the wheel turned to take the corner the car slid perpendicular to the front wheel, across the street and into the opposite curb. If I was a better driver and had reacted more quickly I might have hit the gas hard and pulled out of it (maybe) but then if I was a smarter driver I wouldn't have gotten myself into that situation in the first place.
