Bi-Weekly Edmonton Meet

Re: Bi-Weekly Edmonton Meet

LOL I guess you should check the forum more often. We are doing bi-weekly from yesterday and the reason is listed in above.

There is another car show going on. Euro End of Summer 2... Sept 9th 2pm @ Terra Lossa. The date and time is a little weird, this information is from 780tuners so I think we should go if we can.

Yeah, usually I do. Lately I've been out of the house 12 hours daily so the forums have been a bit lower on the list. On the weekend I was busy with running errands and buying a car and camping with my girlfriend before I hit a 45-day shutdown. So, unless the "End of Summer" meet is in the evening I won't be able to make it.

In the meanwhile, I convinced a guy at work with a B5 S4 to get sways, wheels/tyres and a tune and coilpacks. He's interested in coming out to a meet later when work isn't so hectic.

I'll try my best to bring the CQ to the next meet, it's really slick.

Questions/upgrades B5/s4

S4/B5 upgrades, I have not figured out posting options ? if you reply to a posting ,it is just that .if you create a new post are you just changing the title up top from a reply? I have read the FAQs and realize it is probably very simple . I wanted to take the plunge with some mods possibly? considering a stock motor set up when do you guys consider it would be time to upgrade clutch ,cv joints ,brakes ,powertrain etc in releationship to horsepower & torque . I have read many forums in releation to horsepower gains after chiping and serious modifing, some people noted clutch slippage ,higher tempertures and of course premature turbo failure , fully aware that theres risk regardless. Thanks

Re: Bi-Weekly Edmonton Meet

I work

I don't think I will be able to make it tomorrow. Make sure you guys decide on a time to head out to Euroquake so we can make it official and post up the time and meeting place.

Re: Bi-Weekly Edmonton Meet

Nothing is happening today. It will be next Wednesday at 7 PM. We have decided to leave to Red Deer at 7 AM from Ikea on south side.

Looking forward to rolling in with the CQ.

Re: Bi-Weekly Edmonton Meet

I am having mechanical issues. And I am relying on Southgate to get the job done.(Don't laugh too hard.) So I doubt I will be there Wednesday. I am just hoping they get my car fixed by Euroquake.

Re: Bi-Weekly Edmonton Meet

Hi Guys
All you diehards broke my heart this evening. I was the only one with GTI buddy at legs grounds, I did notice Tatic guy in coupe drive by though @ 740 pm anyways it was a cold evening. I want to be clear about taking off this weekend time wise ,Chris if you see this what time do you think would be a good time to arrive considering all arrivals & car wash use ? apparently we were going to meet 730ish @ IKEA , I think this may be a bit early ? lets get some definitive times. Jesse whats up with the car ? Howard give me a call.

Re: Bi-Weekly Edmonton Meet

Im the wrong Chris... but from another thread... sounds like people are meeting at 7am at Ikea??

And... theres a group meeting by 6:45 at westside then cruising down to ikea... so my guess is that group (which I'll be in) will prob get their between 7 and 7:15?

Also - considering there could be donzens of cars washing up, and theres 2 washers on site... I think an early arrival would be smart. For me... takes at least 10-15 mins to wash my car. Say even 10 mins per person... and guess 24 cars washing - thats 240 mins total wash time... or 120 cause theres 2 washers... 2 hours for 24 cars to wash up... and who knows how many there might be. If folks leave ikea by 7:30 - get to RD by 9(im being conservative)... then thats till 11. The roll-in is till 12...

Just some simple math to think about. (and... better safe then sorry right? )

Cheers,

Chris

I might use painters tape for my front end to avoid having to deal with washing off caked on bugs.
