Original post by bertholomey @Afghan Vet

Time to start a thread for the next NCSQ Meet! I'm ready to see some folks and listen to some great cars!


Standard spiel for those who have attended before:

Friday Night Info:

At my house (bertholomey @Afghan Vet) ......pizza (bring some cash to chip in) - PM me (bertholomey @Afghan Vet) for the address. Really any time that day, and we will stop things at 10 PM.

Saturday Info:


At my house - likely going to grill again :) From about 09:00 AM to 10:00 PM. We will eventually put a little sign up thing for those who would like to contribute cookies, chips, etc.


Sunday Info:


Well, that is in the works - we would like to have another competition in Garner, NC (outside of Raleigh) that guys who typically compete can get some points, and those new to competition can get some valuable feedback based on a scoresheet. I'll update this when we get an answer back.


Stuff to bring:


Yourself
A friend / spouse / kids (of course you are responsible for policing said kids)
Your vehicle with or without anything setup/tuned
Favorite music on discs, thumb drive, or other device
Camera
Lawn chair if you want to use one
Openness to learn, ask questions, take constructive criticism and humbly give advice/criticism

We would love to see some of the 'old dogs' here.....there are several 'locals' that haven't made it out......if you know these folks - send them a text, etc. Even if life has changed, and they are no longer in 'the scene', if they want to hang out and hear some good cars, we would love to have them.


Also, would love to have some new folks - those you may have sent messages to on DIYMA - if they are in the area or even if they aren't - send them a link.


And, the standard CoV message.....if you feel this is too risky, then you can sit this one out and hope for something to change in the future. Otherwise, take whatever precautions you feel are needed.

See ya there brother!

Since Ian can't make it I hit up one of my coworkers and he'll be our substitute englishman.

3 days away!

Wait what? You're not coming? Well that sucks :argh:

I'll be there. Ian (naiku) is the one who can't make it.

:doh: read right over that haha

See ya tomorrow

I had a great time this weekend, thanks to Jason and Vicki for another wonderful GTG

Was a blast for sure. Very awesome to see all those fellow Junkies out there, and actually got to hear more setups than usual.

And kudos to the grillmaster for an awesome burger too!

Well, I hope that he was a good substitute!!

Looks like it was a great weekend, graduation was cool, but I definitely missed being able to head to the NC meet.

He cancelled last minute so we didn't even have an englishman. :facepalm:

Someone could have at least played Sting - but nooooooo...

Did hear a lot of Phil Collins though, does that count?

I even practiced my English so I could communicate in their native tongue :doh:

I did hear Al use the term, "garriage" at least twice.

And something about, "al-you-minium."

Might as well post some pictures for the crowd around here.
This is my parking spot. There were 5 Audi's in front of me and you see how close I am to the front.

Seriously, the local car wash places must have seen a spike in profits this past weekend.

Kendal and Chit it was great meeting you guys. I had a blast. Kris thats the first time I ever washed and vacuumed my car for one of these events. I usually have the dirtiest car.
