Chi2k5

[mkiiSupraMan18]

OK. Who's going to 2k5, and who's looking for someone to tag along with? Last year a group of us met up in Urbana/Champaign,IL (sp? But don't really care lol) And it was a blast. Lots of drive-bys and the like. I'm just curious who's going to be there. I can't wait.

[MA70Supra88]

When is it this year? I'd love to be able to go.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

I guess date/times would be helpful...
HERE (http://www.mid-westsupras.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=629) It's the 'official' site. not really a whole lot of info yet, no date nailed down, weird. But it's either Aug 19-21 or 26-28. If you go you Have to stay overnight. Ask anyone who went last year, that hotel was SWEET. Super nice and fairly cheap. Awesome turn out, even with the rain last year, but no track time for me to kill some MKIV's with my MKII. :mad: If anyone has, or knows of any other MKII's, please bring them. I would love you forever.

Nobody talks to the MKII guy. :sadwavey:

[MA70Supra88]

Sonofabitch. That is really close to the time that I have to go back to school. :rant2:

[oneandgone]

You know I'll be there! I'll also make sure we don't lose Bob this time! lol! I'm going to get one of those leashes people put on their kid for him....

Love the new sig pic, Matt. Looks great!

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Was Bob the guy that did the do-nut coming off the interstate? or am I thinking of someone different? Thanks though, I just wish the wheels weren't turned on my Green car. I think I'm gonna photoshop them straight like the rears.

[oneandgone]

No, we lost Bob when we were getting off the interstate. He got boxed out by a semi and passed the exit. Steve was the guy who did the doughnut....in an n/a no less... :dunno:

[boost PSSH boost]

I think I'm going.

[SupraOfDoom]

I will go, keep us updated. In something anyway..

[mkiiSupraMan18]

It's deffinately worth the drive, even from SE Indiana. Not that WI would be a cake walk either. I would say that a good time will be had by all. I wanna get some track time this year though. Grant, you're going down. (with the 82)

In other news, I saw 2 MKIII's today, and an MKI...! It was in really nice shape considering how old the thing is. Couldn't run him down though, friggin traffic. I woulda bought that thing.

[Blue87T(Dan)]

I will be there for sure.

Dan

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Glad to hear. You'll love every minute of it. Wonder if I can get the mkii up to 200 hp before then...that'd be great. They better have the drags this year, Grant... you're going down.

[oneandgone]

I will be there for sure.

Dan


Glad you're planning on coming, can't wait to meet you in person!

Glad to hear. You'll love every minute of it. Wonder if I can get the mkii up to 200 hp before then...that'd be great. They better have the drags this year, Grant... you're going down.

I'll be ready, punk! I think we're going to be blessed with beautiful racing weather this year. Last years meet was just too close to spring.

[drjonez]

eh, last yr was just bad luck.....that did suck!

i prob won't go as the toronto meet is the weekend of the 20th and i'll def be going to that.

[oneandgone]

Booo!!! You gotta come!!!

[drjonez]

eh, the toronto meet is far more exciting... ;)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

He's afraid of the '82, like you Grant. It's OK a lot of people are... :chicken:

[Blue87T(Dan)]

I was hoping to make both this year. I hope they don't end up on the same date.

[Steve_N]

I plan on making the meet & dragging a cpl other MK3 owners up with me. :icon_lol:

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Steve, I love those wheels. It's a shame my MKII is 4 lug, or I owulda went home with 'em last week. :icon_wink Lemme know if you want to get a caravan going, I'd imagine I'm gonna meet up in Urbana with Grant again, and I'm sure he wouldn't mind.

I WILL have 200 hp by then. Not sure how, but I will have it.

[drjonez]

Naaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwssssssssszzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

[oneandgone]

Matt, we should definately meet and caravan up again. If Steve meets up with you, and heads this way that's all the better. If you guys are all definately coming I'll get a caravan route posted on the MWS site.

One more thing Matt, it looks like that's 2 votes for N2o. :biglaugh:

[Steve_N]

I'm all for a caravan. As of now it will be myself & dbsupra driving up from louisville. May be a cpl other MK3 owners also. About a month out befor the meet we need to get together & work the details out.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

OK. Where can I get me a 150 shot at then? That should be good for A dyno pull, or so. I think I'll just stick w/ trying to find a header and intake...

But, about the caravan, consider me signed up or whatever. We need more MKII's, thats what we need. then we can arrange 'em from oldest, or best, to newest... or maybe have an MKIV and an MKI caravan also, but does anyone know of anyone who has an MKI? I know I don't...

[MA70Supra88]

my cousin has one sitting in a field with a BHG. Maybe we can throw it on a trailer and pull it in front of the pack. :rofl:

[Blue87T(Dan)]

Has this date been set yet?

It should not be the same as the Toronto meet as that would force folks to make a choice.

Looking forward to seeing the guys I met in KY and IN again, along with the Chicago guys.

Dan

[drjonez]

from the official site:

...Ok do to the needs of the Navy and the fact that I also host and run the Mid-West Supra Chapter the CHI2K5 will be either these two dates Aug 19-21 or 26-28...

i.e. the dates are dependant on when bob is leaving....

[boost PSSH boost]

I think I'm going.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

How could you not go...?

Someone sell me a Doug Thorley header for cheap... or tell me where I can buy one... :mad:

[Mid-WestSupras]

Adam , I am getting out of the navy afterall and not going over to Japan so dates are still up, but I need to set a date and locations as well.

[drjonez]

no more navy? what brought that on?

[Mid-WestSupras]

better options else where. dont get me wrong it was great but times are different now.

[Blue87T(Dan)]

If possible, please set it up so one can attend both Chitown and Toronto.

Thanks

Dan

[drjonez]

heh. please don't.....cause i can see it now "hey, you wanna caravan to both?!?"

;)

[Mid-WestSupras]

I am looking into the end of July for the mee.

[Steve_N]

Cool.. That works out well. That way my son can attend. Mid Aug. summer break is over & we are back in the school & football routine.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Geez. We started football in June when I played... sucks to be us, I suppose. I'm still hoping it'll be on a date the GF can attend, I've told her about all the awesome cars in Chicago, but there's nothing like seeing them for yourself. But if she can't go, I can drive like an idiot and not get yelled at like I did in STL. So, either way, I'm good.

[jong]

CHI2k5 is 29-31 of July!!!!!!!!!

yes!

[oneandgone]

To anyone from Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas, or where-ever else that would be going....

PM me here or email me at oneandgone@speed-source.net with your location so I can get the caravan details nailed down.

Last year we had an unorganized caravan of about 9 cars. I would like to get at least 20 this year which should be fairly simple with some planning.

Thank you!!!

[Blue87T(Dan)]

I'm there, but I'll be shooting down 94 from Detroit. Be happy to hook up but not going to drive 100 miles out of my way to do so.

Dan

[oneandgone]

Dan, I'm mainly looking for people who would be coming from the south, southeast, and southwest. I'd be happy to point anyone who contacts me from the north in your direction. Maybe you could arrange a caravan from that direction?

[Blue87T(Dan)]

I know what the intention was. Getting Michigan Supras to do anything appears to be like pulling teeth.

By the way, I am going to go to Indy on the 3rd. Will you be there with or without the Supra?

I don't care which track we go to. I just want to race.

[oneandgone]

I don't know if I'll be at Indy or not. I'd like to, but I know I won't pass tech at IRP. There are races at Cordova the weekend before and they don't tech very hard so I may end up there instead.

[Mid-WestSupras]

I am sure you pass at Greatlakes, we just need to cover the fuel cell for you grant

[mkiiSupraMan18]

End of July now? Damn, and I thought I was getting anxious... :hsugh:
Grant, you know I'm coming from Southern IN, so if there are any people coming from KY/OH, we need to all meet up and cruise to Urbana to meet up with the rest of the pack... No offense... but from IN to Urbana, the scenery sucks, and there are no curves.

Is anyone coming from KY/OH and wanting to cruise over with a few Supras from Southern IN? MKII's would be greatly appreciated but as ussual, :umno: I'm sure.

[oneandgone]

Matt, I actually have at least 2 guys from KY who will be passing through Indy. I've been meaning to get ahold of you about meeting up with them. Is anyone else from your area coming?

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Jordan, the fellow who was with me last year wants to drive the 89, so we may be taking both (Especially if the GF's go) but other than that I don't think so. :thumbsdow But o-well. I'm not 100% on dragging this year now with school, I can't miss any, but I could always just kick-ass heading back home I guess. I'll have to see when all the dates/times get written in stone.
About the KY ppl, they best be meeting up with me in Seymour/Columbus or there will be some ass kicking going on... big time. I also need Eriol and some other people from KY/OH to decide on a place in Indy we could all meet at before cruising on over to Urbana, this should turn out like a Vegas caravan, only just slightly smaller. I'd love to have a 50+ Supra caravan pull up to SP or wherever. Everytime I imagine seeing something like that..... :wuteva:

[mkiiSupraMan18]

wow, I actually checked the website. Maybe I will be running afterall. the only part I didn't get....

$100 for the Highest RWHP MKIV and MKIII Supra

Even the Supra community doesn't recognize us... :3d_frown: But I suppose seeing that I was the only MKII (of 2) to Dyno, being paid $50 to Dyno would have been kinda silly, but it still gives me something to bitch about.
