Hey Fellas,

Sorry it's taken so long to chime in here. Just been trying to adjust to life with an addition to the family.

It appears that there is some more local LSX interest!! Sounds good. I think we'll probably shoot for a cruise sometime in april. The last couple years we've had great luck with mid april. I'm thinking right around the 16th. From what I remember it's been decent the last 2 spring cruises. I think what we'll shoot for is a saturday afternoon cruise, and then leave sunday as an alternate date for rain.

The winter is always slow for this board, but the cruise has picked up some momentum the last couple years, and I'm certain people will be chiming in and looking out for the post in the next few weeks.
Anyone new wanna post up some pics??

Nate

Car looks good Brent, I might be emberessed if I show up in my car, the clear coat is peeling badly, I only paid $4000 for it. I am going to work on all the go fast stuff first then move on to the looks, I am ordering all my major stuff this coming weekend and hope to have it ready to go for the cruise... I also have a buddy with a nice TA that will more than likely join in..

I can't wait for the purdue cruise. I just drove my gf to her room across campus, and then parked her jetta in the parking garage by purdue west. Parked next to a clean red trans am. Only thing I could tell done to it was a borla catback. Anybody know who it is? There was always a really nice nbm z28 that parked next to it during the fall too. But man is it pouring! It was like walking in one big puddle coming back to my room!!

The clean red t/a may have been badgers car. Depending on when you went through there... did it have a ws6 hood?

There are a couple of things done to it.

I try to keep it clean...she is overdue for a full detail.

I've seen that nbm Camaro drive through a couple times. Sounds alright and seems like a nice guy...by my waving-wave back standards. Haha.

I got back into town with it at 4:30 or so. Take a gander underneath when you walk by it next...

Thanks for saying it was clean...but that's too dirty in my opinion. Haha.

Don't worry about it lol. My clear coat on my hood and front bumper are peeling off too...i feel shitty rolling up w/ everyone else having their cars all detailed and stuff but were all there just to have fun...i mean i just dropped 3k for a s60 rear and supporting parts and i could have easily got a paint job but id rather work on go fast parts and beef it up instead of making it look good...we have post college for all that stuff

I'm a senior, going to be a super senior in Engineering/Technology Teacher Education. I'm actually a RA over in Cary...so yes I live in the halls. Haha.

Did you do the freshman lottery thing? You can't get a pass as a freshman otherwise.

No worries. The go fast stuff is the most fun part anyway
I've had projects in the past where the performance definitely came first. This current one just happens to look ok too.
