Twin Cities Meet
 
We are going to meet at Porkey's on University Ave, in St. Paul on Friday night. Some of us are going to be there around 7pm to show off our cars and talk about mods and misc. topics.

Mark_02DX April-16th-2003 06:22 PM

I might pop in for a second, if the weather's ok.

That is, if you guys don't mind a boring, plain white, straight-off-the-truck-stock sedan hanging around...

Kopp0041 April-16th-2003 09:20 PM

not at all, the more the better. I'll be there from 7 till 11:30.

Standard April-17th-2003 12:16 AM

jlanger April-17th-2003 05:11 PM

I'll be there around 7 or so.

good0177 April-17th-2003 11:31 PM

I'll be there
 
Hey, I see there will an ES, DX, and one P5 so far coming. I was wondering what other rides are going to be there? I have a red P5 so keep an eye out. jhanger, have you done anything to your ride besides the MTXs? I was thinking about buying some, so would love to hear how it sounds in your car. Where at Porky's is everyone stacking up at? Is there a certain area you guys hang out at? Sorry for all the questions, it's just I'm coming by myself and don't want to look like a dope looking around for others. Peace.

Lex April-18th-2003 08:30 AM

Add to that red P5 and white ES.

Kopp0041 April-18th-2003 09:42 AM

Cool, sounds like we'll have a good size group. Look out for my Laser Blue ES. see ya at 7, rain or shine.

jlanger April-18th-2003 05:50 PM

I have a midnight blue P5 w/o any mods. (MTX=manual transmission) I'll keep an eye out and I'm fairly sure that any proteges should just go to where the other pro's are at. I'm fairly sure it won't be too busy with the weather the way it is.

Dima April-19th-2003 03:07 PM

35w east? i thought it was S and N.:p :D :) ;) :rolleyes:

jlanger April-20th-2003 08:08 AM

That sounds like 35E:rolleyes: Anyway, it was pretty damn cold and rainy, I'm surprised that 5 people came anyway! Hopefully our next meet will be a bit warmer. In talking with Kopp0041 we discussed getting a mod meet together to install the MS motor mounts. Any thoughts on this?

Dima April-20th-2003 01:56 PM

When? And who got the e-block support or something like that?

Anyways, the weather was crappy, and I didn't have my Pro there because the calipers were still drying. I put the final cought on that morning and was hoping they'd be ready, but since it was so moist, they didn'dry in time. What does everyone think about the MS motor mounts, suppose to be sweet. Do a search for them, TheMan has installed them and says they make a big difference.

Kopp0041 April-21st-2003 08:48 AM

agreed!

Kopp0041 April-24th-2003 12:44 PM

This Friday night, I'll be back at Porkey's around 8:30 or 9. Got the AWR sway bar installed and my calipers anr now fully dry and look good. Anyone what to meet up?

Mark_02DX April-24th-2003 05:52 PM

Can't... Got plans. Sorry.

I'll try to stop by the autocross, though.

good0177 April-25th-2003 12:46 PM

Porky's again?
 
I was there last week and turn-out sucked!! I guess probably due to the weather. I may stop by again tonight. I have the flu so probably won't. Who knows. I got my HKS exhaust put in last Sat. so anyone with a P5 who wants to know what it sounds like can check it out. Peace.

Kopp0041 April-25th-2003 12:52 PM

Yes, last week the whether sucked, but rip yours off the screen, and open the shades, I know, I know, It's bright, It's called The Sun, and it's going to be nice tonight.

Kopp0041 April-28th-2003 09:01 AM

I went, and MAN, there was a ton of cars. People were out showing off just about everything. I think when we get an organized meet, we should hook up somewhere else, like perhaps the Target parking lot. It was cool to see some of the muscle cars. I didn't see any Pros though. Actually, I did see one aound 11:30 by the U turning onto 35W South - But that was it for the entire evening. I ussually see at least two a day on average. In St. Anthony (where I live) there seems to be an unussually high number of Pros and 5s.

jlanger April-28th-2003 10:48 PM

Sorry guys I was busy with the mrs. that night as I was sweetening her up to bring my drunk a## home from a bachelor party the next night. Anyway the contour people are getting a meet set up for the midway area I believe around the 10th. I'm sure they wouldn't mind seeing some pro's I beleive some local Rx7r's will be bringing there rides too as one of the SVT guys has a nice conv G2.

TheDano May-23rd-2003 11:45 PM

so, when is the next organized outing?...the weather in finally starting to cooperate, anyone interested in a meeting sometime soon?

Kopp0041 May-24th-2003 10:39 PM

I'm thinking the next meet will be June 7 & 8th, at Rev it up. Of course you caould stop by the fair grounds on the 6th to help set up and meet everyone, Should be a good time. Hopefully the wheather cooperates.

Mark_02DX May-26th-2003 10:13 PM

For anyone who's interested, I have 3 dozen "Twin Cities Protegé Club" vinyl window decals available. I can make more if I need to. They're 6 1/2" x 2", silver vinyl. $3 each.
I will have a stack of them at Rev It Up, just look for the boring refrigerator-white DX with the tall skinny guy driving it.:)

Here's what they look like:
