Any one from NC im at Ft bragg

 

any one know of any good quarter miles?

 

I'm in Concord (Charlotte). The best 1/4 mile track for you is probably in Rockingham.

 

my last gf was from concord lol

 

Long way to go for a GF.

 

your telling me its like 2 hours and 45 min drive why i gave her the boot

 

HEY! Whatsup guys? I'm from Greensboro. I was in a club here in GBO, but it started falling apart from the inside out. Some of us are looking for new NC blood for informal 3rdgen talk and track events...or just BS and wrenchin' help!!!

 

yea im currently in a strip street club called blurred vision racing its not a third gen club but it is bowties only.

 

Bowties only!? No Pontiacs? Anyways, I'm in Charlotte til mid May.

 

I've got family in GSO and I'm right outside of Charlotte. If anyone wants to get together informally some weekend just drop me an email or mention it on the board in my link.

 

yea i think that would be cool idea im game if we can get a group to meet up at a restraunt to shoot the breeze

 

I'm in.....and I have at least one more interested from Raleigh...

 

we should try to get a group from 5 -10 maybe meet half way between some where im fairly close to the middle of raliegh and charlotte here in fayetteville but if you all have a better place post some info. After we get details we should hit all the boards to try and get more people

 

I'd be willing to go as far as GSO. With my current schedule that is about as far as I can go right now.

 

I live in Dunn, NC. The best "local" 1/4 mile is Fayetteville. Beside the dirt circle track.:lala:

 

Anyone from raleigh?

 

Sorry for bein' a few days late but I'm here in Raleigh.
Hello Abubaca, wondered where most of you guys went to.

 

well any one got any plans we should decide on a place and time send your input

 

HELLO YRUSOSLO! Good to hear from you! Things got a little to hot for me in the club, so I chose to fly solo for a while. There was no reason all that crap had to be club business...

...Anyway...good to hear from ya!

 

NORTH CACKYLACKY...... WHAAAZZZUUUUUUUPPP??

ABBU baby... tryin' to make a livin' yah know??

Personalities will flair and clash but hey man that's life. I just wish I had more time to hang out in person.

My time is so limited I'll spend what free time I do have at the track practicing my RT's I just found a time slip from last year when I ran a 16.3 and my RT was 1.X and my opponent's was .5X
Man, I coulda got high 15's on that 305 b4 I yanked her out

 

Anyone go to the car show in Myrtle Beach last weekend?


I missed it.....

 

Couldn't if I wanted to but I'm shooting for Piedmont on the 30th. Serious Show and Shine and a BIKINI contest - Cars and Babes what could be better?

 

i live here in fayetteville / fort bragg and work in raleigh. i can usually be found chillin with alot of the car clubs like lowered atmophere, pebble pushers, and fayetteville firebirds.

peace,

Yeah I've seen a lot of Lowered Atmosphere's around. They require you to slam your car to be in the club. I've mostly seen imports and trucks. Do they have any muscle cars? I believe that they also switch cars amongst members so you can drive different cars.

 

Fayetteville Firebirds are back together? When did this happen? Where do you guys meet at now?

Ponchojoe
1988 Formula 350
A Few Mods
Hand Controls

 

YRUSOLO- all of lowered atmosphere's cars and trucks are slammed, in fact, alot of them are bod dropped and bagged, but they dont trade cars or anything like that.

Ponchjoe- the fayetteville firebirds arent back together, although alot of times you can find alot of the old members still out cruising together. i usually run into them out towards eastover and such, but every now and then, you can find them out towards the mall and such on nice weekends.

peace,
menace

 

I'm from lexington in davidson county. Anyone wanna get up with me just for bsing or maybe working on some stuff just give a yell. Who all is close to me.

 

I am from Durham/Raleigh area, but without a DRIVABLE thirdgen right now, but should be back together within a couple of months. If anyone gets together e mail me and I will probably be in. I like Rockingham and Piedmont for 1/8 mile

Chris

Hey guys, a friend of mine pointed me to this thread, so I registered and thought I would share something with you. I see that some of you are thinking about organizing a club. Well, I'm in the process of putting my thoughts together for a car club right now. It will be open to all NC and SC residents that own GM performance vehicles. Third gens are definitely welcome, especially since my pride and joy is a 92 RS.

Abubaca, YRUSOSLO, and Ponchojoe what's up guys? Recognize me? It's MATT!

Any of you ask these three guys and hopefully they will tell you that I know what I'm doing when it comes to car clubs. I was a member of the same club these guys were. I also decided to leave due to the founder royally screwing it up for everybody. I was the membership and public relations coordinator for the club. I increased the membership from 15 to 53 before I left and organized many events, including a track day at Rockingham Dragway. I don't mean to toot my own horn, I just want all of you to have faith that the club I'm starting will be fun and helpful.

So if any of you would enjoy being in a club exclusive to the General's finest (F-bodies, muscle cars like Chevelles, Novas, GTO's, Buick GS's, Grand Nationals, Cyclones & Typhoons, Vettes, etc.), then keep your eyes and ears peeled. I'm still typing up the initial stuff right now, but it's going to crank up as soon as possible. With a full course load at NC State and working 40 hours a week, it might take me a little while to complete the initial drafting, but it's coming, I promise.


Anyway, just thought I would share. Take it easy. :rockon:

 

Saywhut, you have to register at Topica.com and do a search

Matt- whuz up! You have my email just keep me informed

Dabe-There's a schedule of events that happen almost everyweekend I'd love to hang out to see some racin'
My car is still inoperable at the moment -shoot me an email as a followup on this board I'll let you know when my car is finished and we can hang

 

GMmuscleman Welcome to TGO!

 

No problem Tim, I'll let you know when it gets going.

jobryan26, thanks!

 

ahhh mannnn you blew my cover!
Actually I think this board is cool that you can have it broken down to region/state/city

I was thinking that it was cool that you are including other cars. With the NC Fbody and NCTGA there really isn't a way to start up another fbody specific club. I think it will be cool to see other cars and get more familiar with their time slips. This way if you meet up w/ another similiar car on the street you know what to expect

 

Sorry for blowing your cover!

Yeah, I wanted to start a club that all GM enthusiasts could enjoy. The more I thought about it, the less I liked the idea of another F-body only club considering there are so many awesome GM cars out there. I wasn't really worried about the abundance of F-body clubs in NC, because CFB is really the only big one. From what I've heard, NCTGA isn't doing so great and the board is pretty dead now.

But anyway, as soon as this week from hell at school is over with, I'll start working hard on getting the new club going. I'll keep everybody posted.

Later!

 

MATT!!!

good to see you.

I'm in.

I'll make the logo

:lala: :lala: :lala:

 

That's cool with me Chris. Besides, I've got plans for you.
I'll shoot ya an email.

 

I might be looking to join a car club make sure you send me some info

 

I'm originally from just above Mount Airy, NC. I was stationed at Ft Bragg from 94-98 and trying to get back there next summer to finish out to retirement. Also, I raced in the SCCA Solo II trials at Rocky Mount, Laurinburg, and LVJM Coliseum in Winston Salem when I was there. Something different. Very well organized events with the Triad Sports Car Clubs. Check it out.

 

Good deal im going to look into those events. If you ever make it back here be sure to send me an email

 

moore82nd, I'll definitely let you know when it starts, which won't be far off! I'm getting everything in order now. I'm going to "advertise" on all the GM related boards I can find. Talk to ya soon.

 

I live in fayetteville, nc myself. A real boring place to be. The only thing i have to do is hand out with the guys for the f-bodies.

Yes I did edit it. I just figured out who to do that..

Check the hangers, and tailpipe-to-muffler connections for looseness, but most importantly, check the heat shielding above the muffler for loose/missing screws.

>it seems to burp when i go into the 45 mps speed.
>there is smell of rotten eggs sometimes.

Bad catalytic converter.

>when i put into gear my whole car shifts.

Could be: bad universal-joints, sloppy rear end, loose control arm or panhard rod bolts, or bad bushings in those. Loose or broken transmission mount. Wheel bearings. Check the u-joints and tranny mount first since they're the most likely culprit.

Oh, and welcome to Thirdgen.Org.

 

Sounds great to me guys. My car will be ready by the end of May.

 

YRUSOSLO- when will your car be done???...i want to cruise with some one that has a 3rd gen CAMARO!...I know a guy in my neighborhood that has a 98 trans am and a 3rd gen bird...

Welp...once school is out...EVERY thursday ill be at BENSON!
