Texas Celicas Meet 2, LOCK PLEASE Options

[zero07]

#'s are key, your right Jared, we need to make sure that we all p.m them to each other before this thing.

Not that we had a hard time sticking together in Bastrop, i thought that went pretty smoothe.

Something that Scott and i do is talk on walkies that i got at Target for $20, its kinda cool.

Sound cool, guys? More than likely, I will be meeting you guys up at CB first since I live closer to them and would probably have to go home and shower anyways after spending some time with the Supra.

I'll need to see what shift I'll be on for the June 7th meet at the track to see if I'm scheduled off or not, but I really wanna go so I'll keep ya posted.

[snapshotgt]

Where the hell is snap? We need to make sure this won't kill his attendance too.

I've been watching...

As of right now, the date and place seem okay. That being said, June 7th is a long way out and i don't know my exact schedule for this day. If nothing more important comes up, i should be able to make it. I really cannot be sure until we get closer.

It'd deff be sweet to have us all there.

Houston members, i'm still collecting phone numbers.

I have:

DEATH
HAVOC
PANDA

So i need the rest of you guys to PM em to me!! I dont wanna forget anyone.

Ngofcukway, What time you think this Saturday night madness will be ending? (Gotta tell a sitter if i'm to go)

Also, my local toyota parts dealership rocks. They give out free sodas and let ya browse thru mag's full of TRD parts, and all kinds of fun stuff.

Intrested Members, i found another toy Celica. (not hotwheels though)

Lizzard?

I'm officially no longer part of the Broken Axles Club. On Monday, my axles finally came to the point where it would start *clackclackclacking* as I slowed down to a stop, so I dropped the car off at my mechanic's to take care of it.

Anyways, everyone good for Saturday so far that can go?

[JesterDC]

I'm no longer in possession of a 6GC, it met its end on a fun twisty road with a COMPLETELY RANDOM PUDDLE AFTER A BLIND TURN FOLLOWED BY A LIGHT POLE THAT JUMPED IN FRONT OF ME OUTTA NOWHERE (note: still super pissed, loved that car, white 98 GT Conv. also still haven't received a bill from the city for that light pole, pretty sure the cop was bluffing) but I still troll the forums here every now and then, 6GC.net was my first car forum, and still my favorite.

Now I've got a Silver '03 Mazda Proteg5 with a CAI, fart-can exhaust(came with it ), and a pretty decent stereo with a 400W RMS 12" sub. But the idea of being surrounded by Celicas for a day sounds like fun to me Hehe, I've even thought about selling my Protege5 and getting another 6GC after college when I have a decent job, 'cause you know by then they'd be 15-20yrs old and classic instead of just old

hell, i got the lightest weight N/A GT!

How do you figure? Verts are the Miss Piggy of Celicas
That honor probably goes to Brandon seeing as he has no sunroof but a coupe with no options would be lighter. -T-spoon - I think Alex has you there as well.

i keep hearing this...

i just dont understand how though

I had one took alltheway apart this weekend... The motors weigh like 5 lbs each... Gears weigh less than that... And there is barely any framing to it...

The reason the Verts(2755 lbs) weigh so much more than the Coupes(2395 lbs) and Hatchbacks(2415 lbs) is additional bracing(like you said, the actual Vert roof components are decently light), mostly done by doubling up layers of the unibody in key areas, they have to because there's no solid roof for support. The roof makes up alot of a car's strength, it pretty much creates a box frame for the center section of a car(Google Box Frames and Lotus 7's if you have a chance). So with out the roof they had to compensate(lolz... compensate hehe, Verts are compensating for a lack of stiffness ) and bulk up areas to keep the unibody from twisting, torquing, or warping itself to death.

I still remember being able to feel my Vert flex in a hard turn (awwwe good times ), you could glance at the door gaps mid-turn and watch them change, when I first noticed I thought the doors were just loose on the hinges or something, but friends and I couldn't get them to move the way they did in a hard corner, it wasn't the doors moving or flexing, it was everything else twisting

And... back on topic! Currently located in a North Houston suburb, would love to attend the June 7th meet, if me and my Mazda are welcome

[NgoFcukinWay]

The more the merrier we always say.

Hell yeah - bring it. We like all cars.

Hey Alex - I'm reminded of a certain other Protege5 [No offense to you Jester - I just had to show a Turbo Protege5 what the 6gc was capable of years ago ]

Oh im not calling anyone a lier, i'm honestly just in denial

But thats why Coups and hatches have to buy rear strut bars, i have 2 built in

lol, i know it's true; i just dont wanna believe it

dont mind me crying, i'll be okay

Sucks to hear about that 6g though.

I'd like to attempt my attendance. Someone text me sat, i'll try to find a sitter. But i'll text death or something if i cant go, so that nobody is waiting for me. (yeah right, you guys wouldn't wait but for like 2 seconds )

Matt, you mean crazy Rob? Lol. I'll see if he's willing to come out Saturday night.

D-man, coupes don't need rear strut bars as bad as the hatches. I'm actually a lot more stiffer in the rear than the hatches.

Hell no - the black Protege5 +Turbo - Nick.
I spanked him hard one night back in the OC days when my original stock clutch was freaking wasted Fairly stock GT then too. The boy just can't drive
Note: This was at HMP BTW [Do not delete for SR please]

what is this, national sh!t on D-Man's parade day?

IDK about coups and hatches, my vert still rocks way better than ya'lls "roofed" cars

Don't be jealous!

[Havok1997GT]

one less thing for us to have to pay for when it craps out though.
