Alright it's been a while since we had a meet so lets get one going. I'm thinking one of the following:

When: Aug. 27 @ 12pm
Where: MOA, East parking lot at the top.

When: Sept. 2nd @ 5pm
Where: MOA, East parking lot at the top.

Make your choice! (See if this works, since I've only done this one other time and it didn't work)

i need to change my vote to sept. 2nd because i race snowmobiles both weekends but i can make the 5pm meet, if you do that.
Posted By: Redlineracer12 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/21/06 10:54 PM
Sept 2nd for me, the 27th i've got some stuff going on.
Posted By: Sprebound Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/22/06 03:03 AM
So that makes things 3 and 3 now... I am good for either day really. I am guessing the 2nd is a better option for most everyone?
Posted By: XKontour98 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/22/06 07:59 PM
If I could make it, it would more likely be the 2nd.
Posted By: RFcsvt Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/22/06 09:25 PM
I think I can make it either day.
Posted By: 98SVTtour Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/22/06 10:33 PM
I would be able to make it the 27th. I'm leaving for school on the 2nd.
Posted By: CSVT#49 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/23/06 02:03 AM
Well I can make either day as well and as a matter of fact if we have this many people voting for each day... why don't we just meet both days??

To confirm i think we are meeting both days, at the mall of america, top floor, east ramp... Someone correct me if i'm wrong but thats where it was last time i went. I'm going to drive around the block 375 times to finish off my 500 mile break in
Posted By: CSVT#49 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/24/06 11:53 PM
Yea that's where we met last time and yes we are meeting both days.

LMFAO!! Good deal though now I can see your car!
Posted By: TRicker Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/25/06 03:14 AM
here's my educated guess.

some pull out 3L from an escape, oval port heads. (P&P). Torsen diff, Spec Stage3. stock axles. its silver. the stock motor only had 50k on it, its a real clean car. the only downfall, the poor sap is gonna try to run a 100 DRY shot of ZEX nitrous. all that work for nothin

j/k tony you rock bro

Lol if only you knew everything like you seem to think
Posted By: TRicker Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/25/06 03:37 AM
well man if you know anything about nitrous you will not run a 100 dry shot of ZEX like you said you were going to when i first met you. i dont know everything, but seeing as i have used nitrous every weekend since the spring, and i talk to people that have used it since the beginning of nitrous systems and i read up on it i probably know more about nitrous than you do. if you are going to run it the way you say, your gonna blow your car up. i wish you would ask someone that uses it quite a bit possibly a drag racer or someone at a shop that deals in nitrous they would talk you right the hell out of a dry shot on your car. dont give me that intake manifold BS either it doesnt puddle if you spray with the correct bottle pressure, and use a good nozzle.

and as for knowing as much as i think i do, i guess i cant. but we can race? hahahahah
Posted By: shineySVTfan Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/25/06 07:50 AM
tonys car wont be ready HA!


why cant he run a 100 dry shot tyler? hes going to have 2 tunes on his xgayabler one for the bottle and one on motor so hes already smarter than both you and i


ps. tyler what what degree is a bottle at 900 psi? @ what psi do you reach max hp.

Time?
Posted By: Blackcoog_dup1 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/26/06 04:17 PM
12Pm according to the post on SVTOATC. I'll be there with my most recent CSVT and I think a few of the 3L one's I've built and sold will be attending also. Should be a good turnout.

Here is the thread on SVTOATC:

We'll be meeting on both of these days. Pick one or come to both! Hope to see you guys there.
Posted By: ZoomZoom Diva Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/26/06 08:01 PM
Probably can't do the 2nd, as I have a houseguest and we will likely be at the State Fair that day.

Ah the fair goes on all day haha j/k how's the 6?

Someone take some pics tomorrow and post them here! give me a preview for tuesday
Posted By: Blackcoog_dup1 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/27/06 08:01 PM
Thanks for coming guys we had about 7 SVT's show up and there were quite a few that I know of who didn't make it. I posted a few pics up on SVTOA but I'm sure ZoomZoom Diva has some better ones.
Posted By: VNMUS Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/27/06 08:48 PM
Nice meeting all you guys. Great to finally see some other CSVT's as I never see any on the road.
Posted By: CSVT#49 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/27/06 09:44 PM
Yes definately a good turn out! Hopefully a lot of you guys can make it to the meeting on the 2nd.
Posted By: Sprebound Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/28/06 09:14 AM
Yeah, that was a great turnout. Next Saturday, I am going to be a lil later then 5pm. I am scheduled to be off at 5:30pm so as long as AirTran stays on schedule I will be there sometime shortly after that. Until Saturday...laterz
Posted By: RFcsvt Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/28/06 05:22 PM
Sounds like the meet went well, Hopefully I'll be able to make it on the 2nd.
Posted By: zeestraten46 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/29/06 12:56 AM
great to meet some of you guys I am gonna try to make it next week if im back down in the cities by then!
Posted By: CSVT#49 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/29/06 02:46 AM
Hopefully I'll have my gauges working and my Apexi S-AFC hooked up by the next meeting.
Posted By: Sprebound Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/30/06 02:19 AM
Sweet Mike, I am finishing up on the painting of my interior and I am done with my tail tint! It looks great! Only thing, I applied about 3-4 coats of clear over em and they are still a flat finish...Maybe it is the clear that I used, but it would be nice if I could get them shiny. All in all, they look really nice. Can't wait til Saturday, I will make sure and take some pics this time around.
Posted By: CsVt53 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/30/06 07:30 AM
"MY S-AFC" thats funny seems to me it is mine

Ah yes of course my smart brother had to chime in... yes yes it is YOUR S-AFC... I'm just borrowing it to see if I like the results enough to buy my own.
Posted By: TRicker Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/31/06 12:27 AM
cant wait for the meet! maybe i'll have a couple people to back me up on the forced induction forum, i'm pretty well hated there
Posted By: Blue Goose Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/31/06 05:04 PM
sigh . another meet in MN that is waaay to far for me to drive. Although I wouldn't trade it for anything, it can get old living way up here. I gotta drive 5 hours to the airport for crying out loud!!! We gotta have one up here in the boondocks sometime!!! We can go drive abondoned highways, setup a auto-x on the ice where they plow the ice roads in the winter, act like a bunch of rednecks with cars, or do whatever (theres so few people almost anything goes)!! But have fun at the meet guys, I take a road trip or 2 to the cities every semester depending on whats going on so maybe I can plan it around a meet sometime.
Posted By: CSVT#49 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/31/06 05:53 PM
Or just let us know when that will be and arrange for a meet during that time

Or maybe we could figure out a place thats halfway...

We should see if we could get something going at BIR and get some road racing done that would be fun.
Posted By: Sprebound Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/31/06 06:39 PM
Yeah...that would be sweet! Although, I know for sure that I would be hesitant to take my car on a track without a nice brake package... And btw Mike, I was rummaging through the garage today and remembered something. At the last meet, when we were leaving, I noticed that one of the bulbs in your third brakelight was out - 2nd or 3rd from the left... But no fear, I have a bag full of spares that I pulled from the junkyard, so I will bring that bag Saturday. I will also have 3 sets of pre-98 sails if anyone wants them...no one seems interested on here and I only paid $12 for all three sets so I might as well give em out for free. I don't really feel at a loss...haha. But anywho, see ya in two days dudes.
Posted By: zeestraten46 Re: Minnesota Meet - 08/31/06 10:16 PM
hey I started a thred on going out to rockfalls by the end of the year if anyone is intrested!

Wednesday night's "Street Legal Drag Racing" at BIR. Lets do it I like going to BIR and it's probably halfway for anyone in the state to meet there lol

Your stock CSVT brakes would be fine at the track, in the 1/4 mile with a more or less stock CSVT you're only going to be hitting 85-90 mph and they allow plenty of stopping distance. I mean if those Top Alcohol Drag cars can slow down from 250 mph in the same distance i think we can do it from 90
Posted By: Sprebound Re: Minnesota Meet - 09/01/06 04:27 PM
Haha...well I was actually referring to a road course...which is what I originally thought everyone was talking about... You have to excuse my lack of knowledge of my surroundings up here, I am still finding things out up here even though it has been 2 and a half years since I moved...

I was talking about a road course. Donnybrooke Performance organized road racing events for my Camaro club (MN-Fbody Club) and while I never went to one they were pretty badass. After the first few touring laps it was left wide open to you (aka go as fast as you think you can handle). I would like to do something similar, as well as drag racing. So with that said I would also be down for going up there on a Wed night for the street drags.
Posted By: VNMUS Re: Minnesota Meet - 09/02/06 06:23 PM
Everyone still one for the meet today?
Posted By: CSVT#49 Re: Minnesota Meet - 09/02/06 08:23 PM
Yes I'll be there. I just got off the phone with TRicker and he'll be there as well. Also as far as I can tell my brother will be coming again with his CSVT.
Posted By: VNMUS Re: Minnesota Meet - 09/02/06 08:54 PM
Meet at the same spot as last time?
Posted By: CSVT#49 Re: Minnesota Meet - 09/03/06 03:38 AM
Another great turn out! This time I was smart enough to take the camera out of my car and use it...









And many thanks to Sprebound for the FREE pre98 sail panels and third brake light bulbs!! Sorta worked out as a meeting door prize haha.

That was a sweet meet until the renta-piggies spoiled the fun... And Mike, did you get that bulb in yet? Did it work? And I still have two pairs of sail panels if anyone wants them...maybe at the next meet. All in all, had a good time and met some new peeps.

Great turn out guys. I made it home without any problems so things seem to be going well with the kit still. I'll tighten up the belt today and see if that gets rid of the slipping.
