Honestly man it's fine....i felt a lot more comfortable after i drove the car and realized that it wasn't as bad as it seems. I just really enjoyed driving it, seriously almost makes me want to go boost

Re: (prjct92eh2)
Well, I'm in the process of relooming/cutting and soldering obd1 plugs (except the distributor ones) onto my new engine harness. Gotta convert and move a few things around on the damn thing. My new tires actually came in today! So, I'm gonna go get them mounted in a few also.

this show/event is partial to our industry, being the biggest thing in our industry, and has put alot of peoples work extremely low because not only nationals, the best event in our industry was cancelled today, but also because their drift and drag series was too, taking a ton of money and exposure away from our scene as a whole.
in other words, i would use personal experience from going more than once, and an outsiders opinion or from everyones general view as an opinion insted of what the event really held. for people in the industry, and a true enjoyer of anything car related, its a sad day.

why didnt you? your car got published, you got to drink? and you walked around over 1000 cars. while they might not be your type, it was cool to do something car related eh?
i might use this weekend for some type of event. i will post more info when i can, but i am already in talks to make a replacement event for people who still value getting out of town and getting together for an event in atl.
i will be posting more info on this as soon as i have it. it will be with all cars too, and will be more of a show style thing than a meet. so still leave this weekend open.

Re: (Stunna BEN)
from what i heard the event had become fairly lame in all and was becoming more trouble than it was worth, most people cared almost zero about the carshow itself, instead it was the Varsity/Kroger meet and other crap going on...
i still dont understand why NHRA and Nopi Drag combined...

Re: (RoadconeTuning)
its kinda one of those be there to experience it on both the events and the reasoning for drag thing.
in any case, from those who were there, who really wanted to be there for themselves insted of because someone else said something, and those who enjoy stuff for what it is insted of what others think it should be, it was killer.
sad to see it go, and even more sad because i see what it is going to do to our scene. very sad in that aspect.

Re: (Stunna BEN)
If nopi is doing bad, think about other groups?
5% inflation last month reported on CNN today.....We are in for tough times, this is just an example.
I went to NOPI car show in Atl. 2 times....had fun drinking and chilling with friends. It is a ricer meet and is the largest car show in the world!!!!
This tells you something when they don't even host the car show, let alone the drag racing and drift events.
the american $$$ vs. europe right now sucks 1.00 vs. 1.60
wow, i am amazed at the crap i've seen and heard this week.

Not to be confused with "THE MAN"
Grainger, you still going to Brixx tonight?
I had a few good times atnopi, but it got perverted. I hate having to worry about the cars getting ripped off all weekend. That's why I haven't gone in the last 3 years.
Ben- all I have to say about nopi is. "nah, that's just a empty tool box. No nitrous bottle in there." lolThose kids were so damn dumb.
