    well i suppose you are a fine looking gentleman, but on to meeting up.

    So the rough idea is i'm meeting up with liltoua, and atlxpat at Varsity downtown in the morning. Originally thought to be 7.30am but Sparta is suggesting that we should go even earlier.

    Anyhow we were thinking using the varsity as we have people coming from 400, and 85, and its a decent converging point.

    People from all over the country come to import alliance.
    It is one of the most packed meets in GA by far!
    Think of Varsity X 10, the traffic is insane, so I would recommend trying to be there before 8. Every time I go I wait at least an hour in line to get in and park. If you go be careful of all the idiotic people that go. Last year there was 4 car accidents from people trying to race/drift and do stupid things where they weren't supposed too.

    not yet, i still don't have my car lol. What time are you/everyone else feeling? i'm agreeing with Dana that we probably should get down there pretty early.

    Also since we seem to be building up a nice group, maybe we can work this like Formula D and we all bring things, I'm already planning on a cooler full of water and soda, and some chips and such.

    it was supposed to be today, but now soft ETA is tomorrow or thursday.

    If its saturday, then i'm getting a ride with someone to IA bc my subaru has expired tags and needs a fair bit of wrenching to get usable for IA.

    ok how about this folks, 6.30am at the Varsity downtown, plan to head down when either all that says will be there is there, or at 7am?

    I just really want to ensure we have a good chance of us all being parked together and having a wrxatlanta presence. please chime in thoughts..

    Turns out we have a wedding to go to, and one of the wife's friends is coming into town for it and also apparently staying with us for the duration.

    Amazing what we forget, when we...... never mind

    So observations from my first IA experience...
    1. waking up at 4am to meet Patrick and Toua by 5.30am at the Varsity is a completey retarded idea :p We ended up spending over an hour waiting for the gates to open.

    2. It was great seeing a few members there, considering how many people were there, I didn't think I would be able to find anyone.

    3. I suspect LS swapped RX-7's are more popular than actual RX-7s

    4. My STI in it's current meaty wide setup isn't as popular as the herra flush stuffs, and that's great to me.

    5. WHY THE HELL DID WE GO THERE SOOO EARLY?!!?

    Nic's Rx7 was pretty sick as well, 7's in the 1/4 is respectable I guess

    LOL i tried to tell you you dont have to go there early. Usually if you wait until after 10, after all the early bird retards are in, you can roll right in with no wait.
