2016 Spring NCSQ Meet - 08-09 April 2016 - near Greensboro, NC

[Notloudenuf]

We had another great NCSQ meet this past Fall....again, pitiful weather, but really good people and excellent cars! Even with a good attendance, there were several that couldn't make it and 'vowed' they would be here with a semi-finished or complete system.

That was a good burger! I ate 3 or 4 of them and one of them was a double! I know you remember what went down the hatch at that burger joint in Atlanta. Woulda got the really big one if I would have been feeling better.

[Babs]

Those were pretty serious burgers if I do say so myself.

The pre meet was us hanging out.....munching some pizza, and listening to jasons brz....lol. Yes, jason was the only one prepared for demos.......shameful, huh. I spent a good amount if the time in my car trying to get it listenable, but between the bs'n and the pizza, it didn't happen. So we pretty much were just chillin........here's a few pics.

Johns audi, fresh off the road......






Bills fj, clean as a mofo, and sporting a sheen!







Erin's civic, with shiny new winshield and beefy kick subs! (That I promise I'll get a better pic of tomorrow...lol)





Jason's brz, much like Bill's ride clean enough to perform surgery on the hood......



And that amp.......Soooo pretty......



And my chariot, the cobalt.....

[claydo]

.......and then a couple of hanging out pics, ended up being four of us, but Bill must've seen the camera and hauled ass...lol.





Doh....make that 5 including myself.....lmao, lil sleepy this morning....

Phew, what a day yesterday. Lots of fun had by all, I believe! Thanks to Jason and Vicki for putting up with the full on home invasion again, yall are awesome! Yet another successful meet put on by jason, he's got us all sooooo spoiled, lol. Was a great time catching up with the usual suspects, and some I hadn't seen in a while. Met plenty of new faces, as we had quite a few first time NCSQ attendees this time, hope yall all felt the love and will be eagar to return! The demo quality was up there, as several of the newcomers to the meet, we're obviously not new to the hobby......lots of improvement in some of the regulars too, big props to Brian as his ms8 driven ridgeline reaped the benifits of a new front end full of high end goodness....those frog tweets are damn impressive! Speaking of frogs, erin's car gave me a new respect for 2.5" midranges.....those things perform like muuuuch larger drivers, a true gem for anyone seeking stealth in their instal! Bills fj sounded spectacular as well, with his midrange cone size upgrade paying dividends on his sound, nice job Bill! NCSQ newcomer Zippy ( sorry bud so many intros yesterday that I'm gonna have to stick with screen names to avoid screwups, lol. ) offered up an excellent demo in a brz ( now that's two awesome brz demos to be had, lol, is this car just built for essque or what? ). Yes speaking of brzs, Jason's lil blue beauty ( damn that thing is clean ) sounded spectacular. James showed off the beginnings of a great setup in his mustang, looking forward to hearing it move forward ( get on that deadening and tweets bud! ). I got great demos from Scott's civic, Forrests Camaro ( unfortunately a very quick one ), nauku's audi, jay's kia, and the jesus' mazda ( not bad for an spl guy, lol! ). Unfortunately missed a few, wanted to hear John's audi, who was suffering from some type of issue that kept him buried up in his instal all day ( hope ya get to the bottom of it dude! ). I also missed another John's demo as in the 350, wanted to hear your car again, who spent some time down from a faulty charger. Didn't hear Casey's acura either, dammit, as he was off to another cookout, to suffer through the overload of grilled goodness, lol. Hated I didn't get to andy's vw as well, Andy seemed to be in stealth mode all day. Hey dude where the hell did you hide all day, lol, yer usually in the middle of everything!? Overall just a helluva good time, and an epic meet of the highest order! Thanks to Erin, Jason, and Scott for the meet disc goodness, I'm gonna have fun going through all these! Thanks as well to James for the late night after meet bs and story telling session that went into the wee hours, good times! I hope everyone had as good of a time as I did, and everyone arrived, or are going to arrive home safely, until the next one my friends, peace......

Btw, pics incoming shortly!
