2 people coming from brooklyn would like to know how long the ride is up there be4 i head out and my car is nice i would like to run it to see what times i could be doing just the way it is what time would i have to be there...if its a waste of running my car then what time should i get there to see the events!!!

Drifting Ricer · 09-21-2002, 01:10 AM

Not sure how long will it take to there coming from Brooklyn NY. I know coming from Boston (were I’m coming from) is 2 and half hours and NY is closer to Waterbury CT then Boston. I say the trip is 1.5 to 2 hours at the most. You have to be there by 8<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'>0am if you wanna compete. I encourage everyone to participate at the event. You be wondering why you didn’t do it sooner after the day is done.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

wonder if that means anything???

anyways... i've used spring compressors once... ever since then i've been too lazy to use em and just do things the easy way (i.e., hydraulic jack and force).

HOT240SX · 09-21-2002, 10:58 PM

see you guys all there look for the red S14 with NY plates thats me just ask for me my name is David and ill tell you my plans on building my engine i got

*SaintlyCharBoy* · 09-22-2002, 04:10 AM

6am, on my way

Drifting Ricer · 09-22-2002, 10:27 PM

hey guys.
I know the auto x site wasn't the best in the world. But the 240sx was a success. We had ppl from MA,NH,CT,NY show up. I liked the battle that me, pj and my "co-driver" matt had. It was a close one. Too bad we didn't take novice class but awell.

Anyone have pics, suggestiongs or next meet site... please post about it.

Can't belive I almost lost to matt in my own car. looks like I have a lot to learn. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

spend your last runs in a half-assed drifting/ smoking competition against a turbo Subie wagon and your bound to not take the overall win.... problem is: pothole induced drift isn't fun.

So how did you get talked into a drifting battle with a Subie station wagon? BTW, thanks for the extra incentive to scrub my tires some more and practice AWDrifting on tarmac. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

HAHAHA  good show Wayne!!  Glad to see you on zilvia!  We need some of your insight!

nismobeast · 09-26-2002, 10:25 PM

yeah, if i knew your car better i couldve pushed it harder Jose, but i was afraid id understeer and plow into the cones on a corner.  But its much faster than what my car used to be, and handles much better.  Looks like i need to upgrade my suspension.  Im thinking Tiens, he he he.
