Title: maybe a drive? (car anime's I.D/W.M)
Post by: motorex259 on April 02, 2013, 06:19:56 PM

maybe a mini-garage meet for those who watch initial D or wangan midnight?
or maybe on a night do a drive to a local "Touge/ Mountain pass"?  (Okay, i admit it, were not as cool as the jap's i'll just say mountains.)

or even at least hog the game machines sometime at a random time of the day? (yes 3am is random) lol

Any takers?

What kind of car you drive? Lol I drive a Mazda rx8 street ported, greddy turbo at 9psi, and I'm set for the track. Lol I'm down for a touge but I'd rather waste coins than gas lmao.

You have this supposed car but you're not old enough to get into a hookah lounge? Did your parents pay for your car?

If you really want to hit the touge, there's Calaveras Rd, but it's also a little far from the con. If you plan on doing it during the weekend nights, there will be drifters. Just sayin'

Interesting. I'm always happy to find another car nut that enjoys anime. If you really want to have a driving meet up, forget the silly back roads with the silly "drifters" and lets go to any autox or plan a track day at thunderhill.

Also what does "street ported" mean?

Basically a way to get more power out of a rotary engine.

If you're interested in running at T-hill, keep an eye out for GDS events. https://www.facebook.com/GripDriftSkid?fref=ts

Their next event is June 14th.

Not bad of a group, but I really don't mind going with any group as long as the cost is low and loads of track time.
But thanks for the link.
