How about a meet for Hot Import Nights in NJ on Saturday July 7th? Maybe we meet up around 5 for an early dinner (and to get some half way decent parking spots). Post here if anyone is interested.

P.S.- Since my car is not done I have an extra ticket if anyone wants to show their car.

sounds like a good idea... alot of us will be at Nassau Colliseum at the mercedes benz power trip.. maybe we should meet up there... and then go grab some food and then go to HIN...

i hope my tires will make it.. im running SOO low on tread... i drove down to e-town and my front tires are already bald on the inside...

Tical, Just get your tires flipped I just got mine done and the insides where noticably lower on tread, if you do this
once every 4-6 months or so your tires will wear pretty evenly and last a little longer if your car is lowered.

Second are any of you bringing your queen bees' to this meet? I dont want to bring sand to the beach if you no what I mean.....

Third can I meet up with you guys at 5pm? where do you live BigDaddy? In queens right?

Tical if your driving solo I can meet up with you in Conn. since thats the route I'll take from Mass.

MrMark if you are at the show we can handle that this weekend for sure just bring the stuff with you..

I'll be at Hot Import Nights all day, so I'll be easy to meet up with. I have to be there in the morning, I registered my Dad's car for the show!

sophie... u might be coming?? to where? HIN or MB Power Trip?? or both>???

Bigdaddy... in the works?? for real?? i cant wait to see it... its going to look HOT!!!!!! and i dont know if you can roll with me... it all depends if i can get the car raised... and how bald my tires are... wait.. maybe you can roll with Ted in his Taurus... also, susie will be with me... so that would mean i'd have to use the rear seats.... hmmmm ur asking for alot... we'll talk about it later..gimme a call.. you remember my friend Eric who came with me to E-town...did u notice he was rolling in Teds GS... ??? the reason is cuz i couldn't have the extra weight in my car.... cuz its so low...i didn't want to risk any additional weight while driving through ny... i scrape as it is...when just by myself....its not a good feeling...

kelby... 1st... correct me if im wrong.... but aren't ZR rated tires designed to go in only one direction?? in the past..with my civic..i did exactly what you did.. flip the tires... inside out... but they were 15 inch rims with HR rated tires.. the tread pattern was the same either way.... 2nd.. when are you traveling through CT?? me, susie, ted..and whoever else is coming with us... are leaving in the morning..to go to the MB POWER TRIP... so if you come early enough..ofcourse you can roll with us... and if ur rollin solo..maybe you can let rich roll with u.....

Rich can role with me what time are you guys leaving for the MB thing?? As for the tires you can flip them followed by a rotation so that they all spin in the right direction a tire shop did mine cause LEXUS had my rotation on the rear wheels backwards I drove to conn that time with my wheels like this! They are going to reimburse me.

Once again, You guys suck. Can't you maybe do some more **** on Sunday. Some of us do have jobs and have to work on Saturday.

Apparently I am the only one going to MB on Sunday. This makes HIN kinda hard since I wouldn't get home till like 3AM from there, then turn around at like 6AM and drive back down
