RDU Enthusiast Club Meet Week of 10Nov2013

[tsingson]

Hey guys. I am going to start a new thread for each meet so we don't get super long threads going. But I wanted to start planning for the next meet. Which day would be best for you? Monday 11Nov2013 or Wednesday 13Nov2013. If anyone has a different day to post, let me know. Vote away!

[Muhahata]

Or the 14th/15th.

[tsingson]

Did you vote Jen?

[Demon I Am]

I'm not that much of an enthusiast of the RDU area. But I like Miatas, can I come?

[tsingson]

Miatas like you too Tony. You are always welcome...:teehee:

[Muhahata]

About what time is this gonna go down?
I'm on call that night that has three people voted.

[tsingson]

7pm as usual.

We stayed pretty late last meet because Steven came late and we had some pretty good discussions going on.

[tsingson]

So James had mentioned that Dave and Busters is opening up today at Cary Towne Center so maybe next weeks meet on Wednesday evening over there? Let me know. I know I will be hitting it up sometime before then because I have to kick ass on Daytona.

Track day was good. No mechanical problems, no weather, no spins or off track incidents. If you were spectating you would've thought it was boring, and that's how a track day should be.

Gopro video will be up tomorrow. I got braver as the day went on. By the end of the day I was braking after the last brake marker at the end of the back straight. Damn these cars stop.

[kung fu jesus]

You said it. With the late model brakes, good pads and SS lines, you will be hard pressed to find better stock brakes on a car this cheap. Braking is probably one of the biggest assets on these cars. Combine late braking with gobs of mechanical grip, the corners are where you find the best, easiest passing opportunities at the track.

Here's some videos.

Me chasing my dad. Watch the whole video, it's crazy how much time I make up on some parts of the track:

[tsingson]

I'll probably be hitting up the Dave and Busters up tonight to check it out and see what games are there.

[Demon I Am]

Good vids! I'd love to do that at some point.

[tsingson]

Went to Dave and Busters today. No Daytona. Sucks.

[JLBMX5]

How about the rest of the games. is the place fun or an over rated game room. interested in a review

[tsingson]

Nothing worth really playing for me but I don't know what games you are into.

[Pyr0monk3y]

There's a place called Chow off of Creedmore and Strickland. I don't know if that's a good location but it's a nice place. They have excellent beer (so I'm told) and great burgers. They also have a few games and pool tables. Just an idea.

It's hard to beat brier creek, there's pretty much everything there. I'm fine with sticking to the normal starbucks location.

[tsingson]

I am okay with Brier Creek as well. It looks like Wednesday it is as well.

[TimTim]

I'm in for Wednesday at Brier Creek

[kung fu jesus]

Yay! Polar expedition edition!

[kung fu jesus]

BTW, where at Brier Creek Mall is this throwdown going to happen?

[tsingson]

Starbucks as usual I think. I may not be able to make it tonight though depending on what homework my daughter has. She has been getting killed with homework the past few weeks. I will have to play it by ear.

[Pyr0monk3y]

I will be there.

[Muhahata]

Can't make it, got called into work ;(

[Demon I Am]

I have plans on being there

[TimTim]

I'm going! And Andy, I think mike is coming out as well
