Cleveland area FR-S , BRZ Meet

[Rampage]

We should start planning the coming out party! Maybe a nice cruise or an autoX. Or we could meet up for breakfast, cruise to a go-kart track and beat on each other without damaging our nice cars (in go-karts) and then have lunch.

Throw out some ideas. By spring, there should be a bunch more FR-S and BRZ around.

Sounds like fun. I'm in!

I'm still not ready to say goodby to the FR-S for the winter yet; there's still no sign of snow in the forecast, so no salt on the road yet. At least one more week of good driving weather...

I would love an autoX or possibly, I could talk to the Nelson guys and see if we could get a group discount or something

I live in the Akron Canton area and i drive a 2003 MR2 Spyder. I was recommended by Rampage to come here. Hopefully can make some new friends when home.

As much as I would love to track the MR-S, most place will not allow a car with a non-fixed roof to run. I can get a harddog for a good price but I hate to cut up the interior of the car to install it. That leaves autox as my only option. I have never done it but I would be willing to give it a try. There is an Autox in the Geauga Lake parking lot a couple times a month from spring through fall.

@ karlp12345 Welcome to the forum Karl. There are a bunch of good guys on here and they do not look down their noses at us too much because we drive MR2 Spyders.

I'm up for the go karts in the spring! Might be a bit rusty to track my car first thing. Would like to try the track sometime in the late spring or early summer. It looks to be a nice weekend and my poor car is all covered up. Bummer. Welcome Karl good to see new people here. Look forward to seeing your car in the spring. Happy Thanks Giving everyone. Don't eat too much!

[karlp12345]

Im feeling welcome already lol. Also, Im hoping to meet many people when spring time comes as well. This winter and few months just need to fly by so Im home lol. I would be willing to try an autox as well just hopefully im in canton and not kansas when you guys do it.

[karlp12345]

Also is there a good place for go karts in ohio I have heard of some maybe get some putt putt going to lol

[pete39sp]

Good question I'll have to look into the go karts. I know that there's a car track between west 130 / 150 st. It's in old track and I'm not sure it's all that great. if there's anythin if there's anything better be between Cleveland and Akron.

[pete39sp]

So does anybody have a wish list put together yet for Christmas? Besides the FRS remote control car I have a pretty good list going I doubt I'll get much of it at Christmas but hopefully by spring I'll get a few other things. I just bought an 86 logo invert that fits in my consol just behind the shifter. Will post a pic.

[Rampage]

There used to be a couple decent ones up around Cleveland but I have not gone to one up there in years so I am not sure they are still there. Sluggers and Putters in Canal Fulton have a track but that would be a drive for the Cleveland guys. We will have to check around and see where the closest good track is located if we are going to kart.

[karlp12345]

Yea sluggers and putters wouldnt be too bad and there was a place I went to in salem. Ill try to check as much as I can from here.

[pete39sp]

My latest purchase. Won't make it any faster but looks good!
