you shouldnt have to wax a car after new paint, it should look PERFECT, after color sanding, compunding, and polishing. so dont even worry about it

michslpgt · 09-09-2005, 02:41 PM

yeah ^ what he said... dont put wax on fresh paint because it has to breathe and set up properly. Wax will just suffocate it.

ViperGTSR · 09-09-2005, 04:02 PM

We are meeting at 3pm at Pine River Park, 620 S Lincoln Ave, Alma, MI 48801

We were going to have it in Mt Pleasant but the park wanted $125 to reserve it and it was non-refundable rain or shine, so that place is no longer an option. So it will be in Alma, which cuts a good 20-25min off your drive now. I posted the place change in the 1st post a while ago, but here it is again for the peeps whom missed it.

My modified mapquest map shows where the park is actually located and where mapquest shows it at, so I suggest checking it out. I also have put a red "X" where we will be at in the park. Mapquest brings it up a little farther south and throws you off by turning you the wrong way at the end of the directions, leading you away from the park.

This is a modified map quest to make it easier to find. Evan did it since the map quest shows the road to the park is farther down the road then what it should be.

ive modified the indiana route, we're gonna cut east on I-80 before jumpin on 69 north. Almost no cops if any on 80, so we can go balls to the wall (80-100 or so). Should cut alot of time off of the trip I think. We also won't backtrack any, so we'll see how that works out. If anybody over in that area wants to meet us on 69 just say the word.

Ajaxus · 09-10-2005, 08:53 AM

metmallman56 has a radar, so he'll be leading. we'll do the brake tap method, double tap your brakes when the radar picks something up, so the next guy knows its time to bring it down to legal limit.

cavingman · 09-10-2005, 10:36 AM

perfect. btw, i was talkin to some friends about how i was gonna be in enemy territory (since its the nd game this saturday) for a car meet. one of them was like "oh, in alma, right?" took me by surprise. so he might be stoppin by to hang out for a bit too, i guess he's goin home to visit friends and will be in some town about 5mins from alma.

ViperGTSR · 09-13-2005, 09:51 AM

coupe · 09-14-2005, 10:36 AM

The only thing i dont like about long distance shows is by the time i get there my entire front end is covered in bug guts. 2 weeks ago i detailed it (9 hours) and put it in the garage. Now its gonna get covered in bugs!!! Damn

cavingchick · 09-14-2005, 01:15 PM
