If it snows tonight... :insert evil grin here:

[TROLL]

Yo yo,
running to work so this is gonna be quick, but its looking like 4-6 inches tonight. and you know i just put my ghetto fabulous steelies with snow tires on. and you know i love playing in the snow. so just wanted to see who else was free to get together. i'll be at work till 9ish probably but lets get together and have some fun :)
i wont be around to organize but someone else should pick a time and a place and pass some numbers around via PM or something.
who's in?
bryan

[teh DIRT]

ill organize. i get done school around 5ish. id like to meet up somewheres around the neshaminy/bensalem area then we can go from there. if we have a big showing the groups will be split accordingly. This is only because large groups attract more attention. Bring your cameras and camcorders and alot of clothing. any ideas on where to meet up? it doesnt have to neccesarily be a place that is good for drifting....just a central location

[MuddyREX]

I better be included in the PM's.

[BradC]

Let me know where you are going to meet, I just put the snowies and steelies on too.

I had a ticket for the game, but I'm not going. I'm going to catch the first half, then I'll call you guys to find out where you are at. I meet you then.

[WhiteXFire]

It started snowing down here in Baltimore around 3pm...lasted about an hour (enough to cover everything in a light dusting) then stopped, then snowed "hard" again for another hour, stopped, and now it's light on and off. There's a decent light coating on the grass, and it's melting on the road to a nice layer of slush. It'll be up to you guys soon enough! :thumbup:

[272sWrx]

i might be out, not sure how well my pzeros m+s are going to do.

[teh DIRT]

[07BlackSS]

I seriously hope so bro....someone PM some details for tongiht!

[BlackBulletTSi]

Guessin no go its almost done snowing it looks and it ain't stickin at all

[sisforsurfing]

I figured there wasn't going to be much of a get together tonight in the Philly area so I stayed around my 'hood and had some fun. Not totally rotation-able, but it was fun as hell. Gooooood night, hope you other guys found some empty snow.

[Gorilla Unit 33]

aww man i got out to a friends j/c now but its starting to stick... hey who needs to do asphalt when u can do front yards lol or highschool football feidls lol

[D Money]

Did anyone end up cruisin tonight? We got more video footage coming. Check for DD video #3. It will be posted up soon!

[Gorilla Unit 33]

yeah im going out in a minute for some late night too bad i dont gotta camera

[SilverTurboRidin]

Yup quite a few of us went out cruising tonight. Had a blast but i left early

[07BlackSS]

YEA I did with a couple people and g-unit. Let's just say it's funnier in person drifting a civic.

[Gorilla Unit 33]

yeah it was fun .... re introdeuced the altima to chester pike ...side ways lol

[teh DIRT]

just got in. about 2 inches out there. tons of footage. lots of carnage sadly. im beat. goodnite

[jspek]

i patent the exhaust idea.

[teh DIRT]

soooo....tired....dont want to goto school.

[TehWagon]

so, what was the carnage? i don't want to wait for mike to get up.

[teh DIRT]

well the curbs werent friendly to our cause last night. Mike most likely has a slightly tweaked control arm. Ivan has an uber bent wheel. And my passenger rear steelie has a dent in it, but it drives fine.

[TehWagon]

jesus... well, glad it wasn't anything TOOOO serious... thanks for the info...

[SilverTurboRidin]

Troll had a pretty close encounter last night if i remember correctly when i think him and barry were in the one little..."circle" parking lot...

[MuddyREX]

good times....

-waits patiently for pics/vid.

[S4toSTI]

Good times guys... at the end when i let troll drive my car i got to say i wasn't worried cause if he had hurt it i would have owned a vf34'd rex and a forum. But he was like wow you have no grip at all... Summer tires rock in the snow to have fun but not to be serious, aka drive home.

[criz]

wow, I didn't think you guys were going out since there wasn't any snow on the ground around 10 or 11... glad you guys had fun

i'll be there next time :)

[S4toSTI]

Yeah yeah...next time we are just coming to get you.

[criz]

Yeah yeah...next time we are just coming to get you.
right on

[HuffRex]

Anybody Going Out Tonight??

[teh DIRT]

not me. i got a video to edit and finals to study for.

[SilverTurboRidin]

i like how the rex's sound like they are sneezing when they boost...its a cool sound!!! LOL

All and all i say it was a good night

Hey its supposed to snow friday!!! LOL

[sisforsurfing]

wow, I didn't think you guys were going out since there wasn't any snow on the ground around 10 or 11... glad you guys had fun

i'll be there next time :)
Same, I just stayed around here. If anyone's going out tonight, I'll probably be at out some point.

Sucks about the damage, hopefully stuff gets fixed easily/cheaply.

[HuffRex]

Question is if people wanna go out tonight, where to go??

[S4toSTI]

I am down for tonight... i don't know where is gonna have snow it seems like its warming up.

[SilverTurboRidin]

its nearly 40 degrees outside

[TehWagon]

friday would be perfect!

[SilverTurboRidin]

same with me, and ms.silverturbo will be home

[WhiteXFire]

I'll be home in time for the meet, so wait until Friday and I'll be able to go too! :rock:

[SilverTurboRidin]

wow i like the new name crossfire lol

[S4toSTI]

ehh its boring

[WhiteXFire]

ehh its boring
Do I need to start a thread so we can all debate it?? :finga:

So what made you guys "curb your enthusiasm" so many times last night...drift area too small, or control issues?

[SilverTurboRidin]

Areas werent that small....we had quite a few lots to play in....


I think they was alot of ice on the ground too...which is never good

[Fourbanger]

i went into a parking lot last night as welll did a couple reverse dounts *gigle gigle* ripped the e-brake and all that jazz. My friends were kinda impressed but probably just brored. Lemme know if you guys go out again ill show you fwd powaaaa!!! j/p.

[HuffRex]

whenever you guys like is kool.. Nice open parking lot would be nice!!!

::edit:: might hit up the woods in atco tonight to see wat its like back with snow, if there is snow.

I was driving straight in that steerring wheel pic. I feel like a n00b.

[HuffRex]

WOW Mike sorry to see that bro, hope you can fix it easily!!!

[SilverTurboRidin]

damn mike dude that sucks!!!! I was wondering why you left out early...the fun was just starting...Well hope it gets back together soon

[S4toSTI]

damn mike dude that sucks!!!! I was wondering why you left out early...the fun was just starting...Well hope it gets back together soon
oh when u saw him driving away that hadn't happened yet. we were searching for more spots.

[SilverTurboRidin]

oh when u saw him driving away that hadn't happened yet. we were searching for more spots.


Ahhh ok....cause it was when me, ivan, chaz,and i forgot his name sorry lol all came back over...and you and bryan were playing ring around the rosie lol

[TehWagon]

I feel like a n00b.
there's something to be said for the stock tires sucking here too... how fast were you going?

[SilverTurboRidin]

there's something to be said for the stock tires sucking here too... how fast were you going?


He was doing the speed limit of course :thumbup: :wiggle:

[WhiteXFire]

He was doing the speed limit of course :thumbup: :wiggle:
Does it count if you're doing the speed limit...sideways?? :wiggle:

[teh DIRT]

he wasnt going fast. looked to me like this. when your turning on snow on you go down a hill/incline...the car tends to oversteer and spin. Where mike hit, he was going up and incline and the car just didnt want to turn.

[BobErT-]

That sucks, i was sliding all over the damn place last night with those summer tires, but on the other hand it was kind of fun.

[HuffRex]

anybody know a good place to have in parking lots???

[TehWagon]

caldor in cinnaminson used to be cool before they started building it up again- losers!

i would really like to find some places in nj with a small group of people- going to pa in the snow kind of sucks.

[the mike]

I was fooling around, plain and simple. I am not going to make excuses as to why it happened, I am going to suck it up and move on. I came around the corner faster than the stock tires could handle and just washed up into the curb. It happens.

At least my wheel isn't bent:devil:.

Disassembly is going on as we speak.

[HuffRex]

[Black 05 WRX]

how do i get there....pm with directions pleaseeeeee

[UnderPoweredRS]

Lower control arm not a big deal. I bent mine last winter drive on Azenis :-\. My wheel went all the way back to the fender and dented it though. You're looks like an Easy fix. New control arm and repaint those wheels. Your done.(alignment of course)

The problem is the wagon arms are different, so I need to find a wagon arm.

there goes the new paint on that wheel, lol

[TehWagon]

werd...u mentioned soemthing about friday ash??
yes i'd be down... maybe after the champps meet we can go play (see upcoming events)

black05wrx - is that the penny pack park in PA or NJ?

[jspek]

i think barry and i take the proze for best doughnuts haha

[UnderPoweredRS]

Here is a picture of the control arm that I bent last winter. Subaru designed in a failure point(hole in control arm shown below) so that you don't tweek the chasis with a curb hit. You just bend a replacable control arm. I'll bet you'll find your arm bent the same way(just not as much as I hit the curb with the wheel turned full to the left) This is a good reason to stay away from the STi control arms(no failure point) for a DD car.

http://rfoy.jreednet.com/rs25/pics074.JPG

[teh DIRT]

subaru is teh win. all three of ours bent exactly where they were supposed to. amazing.

[UnderPoweredRS]

yup Subaru R SMART

[Safir]

Mike - how fast do you have to fix the car? I have my GC control arms in MI.. they are the same as the wagon arms, except maybe some bushings... BUT i can't get them until the end of january.

[UnderPoweredRS]

They are not the same. you would have to shim the control arms to make them fit. Just get the rite ones.

[BlackBulletTSi]

Looks like fun last night guys. I wanna get in next time. I'm hopin to have the car all legal soon. Then I can come play!

[the mike]

From my other thread:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v321/themike/oops3.jpg

[UnderPoweredRS]

Yea I was gonna make mine pretty like that one but I wanted to keep the OLD SCHOOL hangin with Bill Gates style.

[UnderPoweredRS]

Now when you get the brent one off you can take the same picture and make that a two picture slid show or something.

[the mike]

That IS the bent one.

[UnderPoweredRS]

give me a likn to your other thread. I don't see a bend on it. Was that before?

[the mike]

http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7889

That is after, not a major bend, no fender damage. Just a ton of toe out and it moved the wheel back.

[Safir]

They are not the same. you would have to shim the control arms to make them fit. Just get the rite ones.

the control arms are the same - the bushings are differnet... and cheap, BTW.

[teh DIRT]

hey safir. are the bushings used in the control arms filled with grease? when i nailed a curb last year there was an oil like substance leaking from the bushing. I assumed that if was a filled bushing but i could be wrong.

[TehWagon]

yes i'd be down... maybe after the champps meet we can go play (see upcoming events)

yea, um, i'm an idiot. the meets not till next week. so i'm totally free friday!

also, huff, i was thinking maybe we could cruise around and scout out some spots around here... when there is no snow. so we would have a good idea of the surface of lots, that way there'd be no suprises/curbs/holes/etc. that are hard to see when it does snow.
discuss. :afro:

[TehWagon]

nope - going to the campout for hunger then watching lost. thursday is possible- can you call me again? as many times as i've talked to you i've forgotten to save your number each time!!

I don't knwo for a fact, but i do not think they are... I didn't see mine after they pulled them out (i have WRX sedan a-arms w/RS bushings on my car :mrgreen: )

[the mike]

Don't forget I have a wagon, they are different than the sedan ones.

[Safir]

the wagon ones and teh "GC" ones are the same, except for the bushings - the turbo crossmembers use a different buhshing.

in any case, it looks like you're well on your way to having it fixed already :)

[Vypurr]

Soo...Snow thursday night? Whose gonna play?

I actually went over to the lot you guys went to before that **** was ripped up looked like it was fun when the snow was soft. I think i lost like 50% of the change in my car b/c of it all being frozen.. Still pulled a couple e-brakes and whatnot. Id be interested in going out tonight if anything acumulates*sp
