    Anybody want to meet up at the Varsity this thursday? It's the local monthly meet over there. Sometimes some good cars but no other WRXs ever.

    I'll be up in the downtown area anyways if anybody's got other ideas.

    I might go. I live really close to there, so I usually stop by for a few minutes to look at the cars then leave. The Varsity meets usually bring out some pretty good cars. I've never been to any of the other IL/IA meets though. So I don't know what they are like.

    What time does it normally get going? We could just meet up at a certain time regardless of the other cars there.

    It was fun when it started. I was a durty and invited the IL guys to hang as well. Then word got out and all the crackhead bling f00ls started showing up. It lost it's luster, for me, al long time ago.

    I won't return.


    Trivia, this meet will mark the 3 year anniversary.

    I'll be stopping by, but later. Around 9:30 to 10 ish. I don't know long I'll stay because I've never been. But if it turns out dumb I'll probably leave.

    JT, I will be there with the Silver Bullet. It is right off of I-75. You can actually see it from the highway.

    ok so about 7-8 of us are going.. still gotta get back with 420, but you all can hang out with me, yeah the varsity is weak when it comes to atmosphere, plus it seems to be getting cold again, so who knows how long ill stay, but ill be there the whole time hopefully, just look for a black wrx with a nice dent in the drivers side door.

    Directions to The Varsity:


    North Ave. Exit and take a left and the Varsity is on your left across from the BP

    ....or you can get off at the 17th/14th/10th exit and turn left on either of those streets and go to Spring St. (first street you come to) Turn right on Spring and follow it down until you see the Big V on the right.

    on a scale of 1-10 in worth, i would say the varsity is a 6, only due to some really nice supras/VWs showing up.

    yea i can see that........i honestly only like going to wrxatl meets because everyone is so much cooler and nicer. The IA meets, etc.. are gay because a bunch of riced out 2 fast 2 furious kids show up. Not to sound biased but i have seen it to many times.

    I drove all the way from Athens and got there about 7. The only person I saw was a VW Jeta that looked good, he was leaving. I hug around until 7.30 or so and saw not one WRX.

    ReTodd, you were there way to early, got there around 9:30 and the lot was packed. Lots of people show up later. I think the pretty much start showing up around 9 to 10.

    It was neat seeing some of the cars. There was a black NSX for sale with 125k miles for $25,000 ish. Two cars had lambo doors. Plenty of s2000's, plenty of wrx's/sti's, evos. A few supras. I actually liked it. Plus I met a friend of mine there who races often on Road Atlanta and Little Tally.

    I had a great time, even if it was cold. There were a lot of cool cars there, especially the 1000 HP Yellow Supra!!. It was tight!!. It was good seeing you all that showed up. Blink, the website for my friend's company is www.phoenixxsys.com. Later....
