Triad NC Owners / Meet Info
 

We definitely have enough members to start our own thread for chat and meet info.


I had a great time at our first meet, and I've been coming up with some ideas for some stuff to do.


I'd really like to know how often you guys want to get together, and anywhere or anything you'd like to do.


Ill also keep up a registry if you guys want something like that.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


So here are some random ideas, lemme know what sounds fun and what sucks


Our last meet was on a sat, and what's one of the best things about Saturday? The good BBQ restaurants are still open. We could head down to Lexington and do a BBQ run, maybe head down to the NC zoo, or the Cool Combat Air Soft indoor place.


I know Charlotte has a Saturday meet as well, as does Raleigh occasionally. We could meet up and cruise over for some double trouble.


In lieu of putting a track or auto-x meet of some sort (hopefully to be discussed) There are several nice indoor and out go kart places near by.


Instead of doing a cruise we could always do some sort of maintenance day, I just don't know if I can trust my cat to help me bleed the brakes.


For more extended drives we have a lot of options, heading up into VA, down to GA, and of course the Dragon. Lots of options to do this one, and we could go en masse.


We can also do a parkway cruise that could also be quite extended. I'm interested in doing a mt Mitchell climb, as well as exploring more of the back roads around.


For shorter times, it could be fun to do a tour of our favorite local roads that brighten our everyday.


Any sort of holiday run, down to SC for fireworks for the 4th(any occasion, I love fireworks), Bermuda Run Festival of lights for the holidays, I thought I had at least one more...


And of course our local 66 run, its close and its fun.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


A Drive doesn't always have to be included, just a quick get together for dinner or I'm willing to host at my house as long as you aren't allergic to cats!


I'm a big old nerd, you can get me to most anything dealing with games (computer, console, card, table top, that list goes on), Movies, Anime, and the like.






Run into your local twins (not literally) and get em to join up and come out, lets keep this going.


ps- don't forget about our facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/751706411533583/


and there are several other local and semi local ones out there, if your facebook savy, help me out!

Reserved cause racecar

Don't forget the tail of the dragon. We could make that a day trip. I think they just hosted or are hosting a 86 weekend in the spring.

BTW if any of you guys know of any good local tint shops and could shoot me there info or post it here I think that's going to be the nxt thing I do thanks for the help and finally the triad is represented in the forum lol.

I'm in for everything suggested as long as I can make it out. Weeknights would be tough, but as long as I'm in town on weekends, that wouldn't be much of a problem I think.

One thing that might be coming up (they've done it in the past) is a toy drive at Martinsville. You bring a few toys and they let you on the track - it's guided by a pace car, but you can always hang back a bit and open it up on the paperclip, which is fun.

Edit: Found it

My body is ready....just saying

Consider the "Back of the Dragon", it's closer than the tail. Longer, fewer curves, less pull offs, but the speed limit is 45-55 and a lot less traffic, at least in my experience.

Thanks for the info! I always like finding different fun roads.


I left work a bit early today and enjoyed the great weather we had today by looking for some fun roads we can cruise next.


Ill be posting some maps soon of some other proposed cruises.




I also ordered a window mount for my phone today so I can take some sweeeeeet vids of you know, the road.

This is awesome! The Wifeys birthday is the 3rd, so I already have some time off and a trip to VA planned.


Being Martinsville is only about an hour away and its a good cause, If we can match some schedules, I'd go more than once. I'm mostly free the 4&5 and the 10th if you are.

I hunt for roads on these sites too:

http://www.motowhere.com/listpaths/c...254/region/155

http://www.motorcycleroads.us/states/nc.html

Just spotted a frs heading into energy United in lexington. 10 or mono.

Headlight jealousy is not pretty

This weekend I'm up in Asheville, so I don't think I'm going to be able to make it since I have to work all next week too. Wish they would extend it through next weekend! :cry:

I've used a couple of those before too - very good suggestions on there.

I've used the outer 2, never used Motowhere, will give it a good going through.


I need to start making a list of lesser fun roads that don't seem to make it on these lists, thanks again

Dec is a hard month to plan for as most of us have crazy schedules.


With that in mind, just seeing how many would be available for a drive sat the 13th or sun the 14th. I hope that its a sweet spot between travels and increased work.


I don't actually have anything planned, so it'll probably be the parkway, 66 again, or Ive been looking at hwy 158 between Reidsville and Roxboro. Anyone know this road?

I'm going to be working those days. But me and a s2k friend from work might be heading up to do the Martinsville thing on Thursday I'll keep you guys posted on what's the plans are if anyone else is interested in tagging along

definitely let me know if you mean this Thursday, ill be up there as well.

Local, Greensboro, guy checking in (and first post).
I'm definitely down to attend some meet-ups whenever they are planned.
Fingers crossed that my new FR-S finally arrives tomorrow at the dealership!

Look forward to meeting you all

Welcome to the forums! We have all felt that longing, knowing our new twin was just out of reach.


We are a pretty new group and still growing members. Things will probably pick up in the spring, but will be trying to do a least a monthly cruise.


Check out our facebook group as well, the Flat4NC group seems like a swell set of guys

Gave the thumbs up to a frs leaving kernersville via i40w this morning.

Don't think I recognized him....

Welcome! I'm also in Greensboro, hardly ever see any twins around, so it'll be nice to hopefully see another. Congrats on the purchase!

Thanks for the welcome, guys. The car finally arrived today and I went and wrote the check! Keep an eye out for me around the area… :thumbsup:

Went up to Martinsville this morning to get a few laps in

If only it was always this easy.

I think this is a vid of "best" lap

Still pumped up from a great trip and free until Monday!

Had a long day. Srry I couldn't make it up to Martinsville do you know if there open on Sundays bc that's the only other day I could make it up there I'm so jealous you go to go.

Starting a new job on Monday, wooooo


It does require some weekend work though, so I'm not going to plan out anything too far out, until it all gets figured out.


So expect, "anyone wanna go driving???" and we can work something out for a lil bit


I do have some free time around April 25&26 just a starting point if we wanted to plan something on the dragon

Congrats on the new job! Right now, nothing planned for that weekend in April - would be fun to get a group up for the Dragon.

I like the "want to go driving" guess we need to hash tag it and get it trending lol. Saw a twin in then mall today (which was a zoo and a stupid time to finish up Xmas shopping) and got a wave and another one at my gym that I hadn't seen before . I'm off on the weekends for the next come weeks so I'm game for it w.e you guys are.

Made it out with the Flat4NC group today

Good group of guys, and allllll that turbo.


They said they may try to do a monthy meet/diner

I do think Im more of a smaller group person, its hard to change anti social ways!


Tnren, Im talking to a guy a facebook right now about something tomorrow, Ill repost here in a bit,


so if anyone wants to go out tomorrow post it up.








And we are gonna do a Parkway cruise on Janruary, will give a solid date soon

Hot donuts at Krispy Kreme I'm tempted to really show them a hot donut lol

Gonna do some parkway recon tomorrow, going from Lenoir area up to blowing rock, down to little Switzerland, and looping back around.


Meeting at 1010 Blowing Rock Blvd Lenoir @ 2 PM

Well, guy I was supposed to meet up with never showed, but I did have some fun on 268 near Wilkesboro.

I am trying to get a monthly meet going, with our next one being either the 24 or the 31 if I could get some feed back. We were supposed to do something today, but I got sick and have been making a nice indent on my couch.
