I've got the 21st off so count me in too!

 

Well, I think it's being changed to Sept 22nd now at 12pm, there will be 30 other cars besides us guys comin, so check back to see if things change.

 

Looks like the pump is dead in my tranny. I'm pullin' it out, getting it rebuilt, well, pump replaced, filter, torque converter, and of course the fluid. There was no metal in the pan, good sign.

Anyways, I might make it, I might not, depends how fast I get this tranny out, fixed, and back in. I'll try to keep you guys posted.

See ya.

 

nooooo it has to be the 21st, i gotta work the 22nd

 

*** Note - We will be sticking with the orginal date of 9/21/02 ***


Okies folks,

As Mark was hinting to, we have been presented with another option. Our group has been invited to the local MAFBA picnic, witchi s set up for Sunday, September 22 @ Downs park in pasadena,MD, starting at 12pm. It seems like a great idea to me, and seeing as we already were thinking about doing ours on saturday, we could just combine with thier's. However, I know some of us have to work weekends from time to time, so we need to figure out if this is something we would be able to do as a group. Here's the link to the post on MAFBA:

http://www.ws6zxr.com/showthread.php...1849#post71849

I think they also posted it on CZ28.com, LS1tech.com, LS1.com, and EFA.com. Poorboy has mentioned that he knows most all of the folks attending, and they are all cool.

So, what we need at this point is for the folks who are attending our gathering to post and let us know wether they would be able to make it to this instead. Also, feelings on this? They are expecting around 30 or so cars, and it seems like the park is nice and big. From what I hear, they have car shows there from time to time, so there should be plenty of room.

Okies, it's time to post up folks, thoughts on this and wether it is a possibility. If we can't get most everyone on board with this, then we will stick with our original plan, we just need to figure this out soon so I can nail down a park.

 

:lala:

 

Awesome, I'll prolly bein bringing my GF. I'm goin to try and get my brother to come in his RS, but I'll let you know. I went to the track last nite unprepared. There were a bunch of 3rd Gens but I only talked to one guy. I really need to make some flyers, and so does everyone else, to start handing out and gettin the word out there.

 

i can go to the park on Saturday, but not Sunday (i work 12-5)
, unless i am off for some reason..

 

yeah me too , sunday is a no go

 

I'd prefer it saturday since I gotta work on sundays. If its a sunday I'll try to make it.

 

Same here, looks like Sundays aren't good. I'd prefer Sat too, even if we have a few less cars.

 

Hey Eric,looks like the majority likes Sat. so far.Lets leave it alone.Maybe a MAFBA/TGO gathering another time. We still need a location then right?

 

Yep, my thinking was that we could do the mafba thing if -everyone- could do it, if not we would stick with the 21st. We will stay in touch with those folks to see if we can co-ordinate something next time around.

So, we are going to stick with the 21st of september so everyone can make it out. Yeppirs, we still need to nail down a place, I will be checking out some of the local parks this weekend to start figuring out which one would best for our needs.

 

Cool, hopefully my car will be in better tune by then.

 

TTT!

 

Hey Eric, i'll try! I really am trying to get the swap done but at the same time i do not want to rush it! If i can go i will let you know, i will not screw you guys over! later

 

Brian,

Don't sweat it bro, it's just a tenative list. It was great to meet you saturday. Even if the car is not complete in time, you should still try to come on down and hang out & meet the group. Good luck with the swap, I am -REALLY- looking forward to seeing that beast in action! :hail: :hail: I hope you can make it out!

Also, if you make it out I will bring my eprom stuffs...

 

Also, did you get your wheels mounted up? It seems like most folks (myself included) on the board have been -dying- to see those wheels mounted on a thirdgen. (not photochopped, anyways )

 

Hey Erik, it sounds like it would be a cool gathering! I would be able to check out peoples cars that actually resemble mine! I am talking about all of my "*****" friends! Well, my good friends respect our cars because they know whats up, lol! That would be great if you could help me with the prom work. If it is as easy as you say it is i just might try that first instead of getting the Ed Wright chip. We'll see. About the wheels, i really wasn't going to mount them up until the motor was done because you saw my driveway, there is barely enough room as it is. I wouldn't want them to get damaged. If i get a chance i will put the wheels on and take a picture for you. I will try to post it or maybe e-mail it to you. I am not good at posting images at all. Well, i'll talk to you later-Bryan

 

any idea on the location for the 21st?

 

Okies folks, after tirelessly checking out park after park , I think we have a winner. I am just waiting for final approval from the ranger, and I shoud know for sure tomorrow. Here's a quick peek:

http://www.homestead.com/northpointstatepark/

After talking with the ranger today, he said we would probably be best suited in lot A, as most folks park in lot B. Both lots would work, A is very big, and has tables adjacent to it. B is also big, but most people park down there as it is close to the water. The other thing with B is that tables are a little bit aways, maybe 1/10 a mile or so. There is a fishing pier, swimming area, as well as a bunch of trails. The park actually sits where an amusement park was once built, around 1906 I think. Some of the old amusement park has been restored and still remains.

Anyways, it is located in Edgemere, MD, just off I-695 exit 43 if you are coming from the south, and 42 if you are coming from the north.


Here's the directions:

From Northern MD:
695 South Exit 42 - North Point Blvd./Sparrows Point. Bear right onto 151 South -- North Point Blvd. First left (Edgemere/Ft. Howard) onto North Point Rd. (into edgemere) you will pass a wawa on the left, then sparrows point HS on the left, stay LEFT at the fork in the road, strait for about a 1/2 mile, park entrance is on left. (bay shore road)



From Southern MD/VA/DC area
(I-95N to I 695 East)
I95 North Exit 43 -- Sparrows Point. Left (at ramp) onto Rte 158 -Bethlehem Blvd towards Edgemere/Fort Howard. Proceed to traffic light at North Point Blvd. Straight through the light onto North Point Rd. onto North Point Rd. (into edgemere) you will pass a wawa on the left, then sparrows point HS on the left, stay LEFT at the fork in the road, strait for about a 1/2 mile, park entrance is on left. (bay shore road)


I attached a few pics as I was there a little bit ago (30 minutes?)

 

 

:lala:

 

Man, I feel sorry for the dial up folks....


Oh yeah, This is lot A, looks good to me...

did patapsco state park idea get throwed out? I thought that would be a good middle for everybody to meet at. Its the nicest park in the baltimore area. Its just a suggestion. Whereever it may be, i'll still go and we'll all have a good time.
