I believe is where we all put a small cut on our finger and shook hands to enter into an "oath of silence".

Talking Show is sponsored by BUDWEISER......

Hey wassup club lex, I've been hearing some real good things about this car show happening in Montgomery, Alabama. I actually went to the website and emailed the guys coordinating the show. He called me and told me what they planned and mentioned that they will have a dyno and that the 1/4 mile track will be open during the show for all out grudge races. the bikini competition has a bunch of hooters girls and a good amount of sorority and regular girls. plus they have tons of classes (mild/wild)and big awards... Cash prizes for 1st-3rds ranging from 100-500$ and HUGE trophies... bikini contest, DJ's, tons of vendors, and a 1/4mile drag strip open all day to run your car...

if you have any questions the guys at STREETLEGAL:

contact "Touch" @ (334) 725-5241 or mail to:Touch@team-streetlegal.com


STREETLEGAL'S "Gears & Girls" show... it is gonna be bad azz... 300+ carz expected and room for much more... it is 40$ to enter your car and 30$ to enter your bike and will be well worth your money...

Now that is a great pic, although it isn't the best of memories; like the energizing bunny....

Folks attending in Charlotte - if you haven't already responded to my email please do so and let me know if you are a "YES" or "NO" for the dyno so I can call them with a count early next week.

If you didn't get an email from me with a draft schedule, please PM me or send an email to DaveGS4@ClubLexus.com.

Looking forward to next weekend!

Thanks,
D

Hey, also, anyone that is attending, consider bringing a video camera for the dynos, pack hunting, realtime road trips, and house events.

Hey, how do I get to the dyno??? Looks like I'll be leaving Sunday night to get there Saturday morning. How long of a drive is this also, thanks.

I think you got your days backwards, chief.

Anyway, here the info you desire


Precision Dyno is off I-85 Exit 26, Belmont Abbey

503 Woodlawn Avenue, North Belmont NC 28012 is the address

You'll drive down Woodlawn and it'll 'V' off - take the V onto Boundary Street - entrance to the dyno is right there.


Mapquest directions are good to get you there too.

Maybe 3 hours? I haven't mapped it out yet.

-----------------------------

EDIT: here ya go - basically, just shoot up 85

MAPQUEST LINK from ATL to DYNO

I sent a logistics email to those folks who confirmed attendance... if you plan to come but haven't posted here please send an email or PM me!

One thing I meant to put in the logistics note - but did not... if you have a walkie talkie or portable CB, bring it along. YellowIS (Shawn) had this idea to communicate during drives and it sounds like a good one if we have enough of them. It's a Lexus CONVOY!

Default Folks from ATL...

What's the plan for getting to Charlotte? It would be pretty cool to caravan up there, so maybe we could post our locations and tomorrows work schedule here and come to a common meeting place and time?

I'll be coming from the airport, and normally get off work at 4pm, but am pretty flexible. Next...

I get off work at 9pm. I think I may nap, then drive straight to Charlotte in the morning getting there for the dyno.
