Re: NorCalThirdgen
Yeah I knew about Mel's, I tried like hell to get the day off. I even thought of calling in sick, but I talked to so many people about taking the day off they would have known I wasn't sick. Bum deal, but I will be looking forward to a meet at Marcs, I might even have my Z28 running by then.

The last meet at Marc's was awesome and I know him and Bennie will go out of the way to make it sweet. Definitely don't miss the next one fry man.

Re: NorCalThirdgen
Maybe prizes for
Best Appearing 3rd Gen (overall)
Best looking daily driver (basically stock)
Longest Distance Traveled (in a 3rdGen)
Best Modified 3rdGen
Best Slightly Modified (engine/interior/paint/???)
Best Burnout (To be determined online, after everyone leaves)
To make it fair, everyone votes for the category.

Those categories sound awesome. I might just have to buy the rest of my interior stuff sooner haha
You set a date and I'm there Marc.

Re: NorCalThirdgen

Re: NorCalThirdgen
I don't think I will score best looking or anything like that, but i may have a shot at longest distance traveled to the meet. I am pretty sure it is just shy of 300 miles to the Rocklin area for me. Trophies or not, I wouldn't miss this one for anything.

Re: NorCalThirdgen
Let me know if you want to meet up anywhere, I don't know if you are going through Yuba City or where, but I may be able to meet you somewhere along the way there.

Like I said, burnouts will be done when you leave, and on the exit driveway!

Re: NorCalThirdgen
Any ideas for a basic card/mini-flyer that mentions a link to our forum here?
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/northern-california/
Our stickers/shirts don't make mention of where.
Would be cool to have a dozen or so to stick on a 3rd gen you come across, or pass out at the track if you meet, or see one.

Re: NorCalThirdgen
You know Del, I was thinking of doing that very thing myself. My thought was to simly put the web link in a lower corner of the card with an emblem similar to my avatar pic in the center. There are a few other third gens around here with owners who obviously love their cars.
