Hey, I know Shi, cool guy. Didn't know he's been in the scene for that long.

[Psycho]

So what was the racing scene like back then? Where did everyone use to meet up at? I heard BP didn't get started until around '05-ish

[FasTech]

All this back then talk, Nopi still has that many riced out cars and Macon.... Tons of them ride around!

[Psycho]

back than there was a meet anywhere....lol
I didn't come into the scene until the whole SpeedMonkey vs Project Motor Sports was in it's prime. Ahh the good old days. Ever since the two car clubs split apart BP has turned to sh!t. All the fast cars don't come out anymore :(

[DeutscheBAG!]

Damn even Justins old civic in that mix. That first purple civic with the color matched wheels, What was her name? I cant remember.... I used to talk to her all the time at shows though. Damn Jeffs car, Jimmy, Kats all before the UAB conversions :)

[Kevykev]

I loved Chupp's Civic when it had the gold wheels on it.


Nice Pics Jimmy

[Total_Blender]

Wow, this thread is a real blast back to 3 years ago:ninja:

I was expecting some cars that were at least made out of metal, maybe emissions exempt and hopefully qualified for antique tags. :crazy:

[quickdodge®]

Where did everyone use to meet up at? I heard BP didn't get started until around '05-ish

We started out meeting up at Toys-R-Us at the Mall of GA. Used to meet every single Saturday night. And, holy shiit, we had at least 150 cars every time. There was never any fear of drama or fights or any of the crap that drives a lot of us to stay away. Even the police used to park there and get out and hang out for a while. Someone on here has pics of a couple of Buford policemen talking to folks.

After a while, Toys-R-Us management, for some reason, got tired of the crowd and let us know that we couldn't come out there anymore. We then went to the Kohl's parking lot off 316 in front of what is now Wal Mart. It wasn't quite as packed, but it was a guaranteed 100 cars per Saturday night. That lasted about 3 months until some jackass trailered out a run-about car and started doing donuts in the parking lot. That and a few unwanteds started showing up.

I then got in touch with a shop on Bufurd Hwy down from Pleasant Hill called Burrell's. We started meeting in his lot. It got packed to the hilt. We even worked on Jeff T.'s car there for a few weekends. Mr. Burrell grilled burgers and hot dogs every Saturday night. At his expense. We had to supply the Cokes. Awesome dude. He soold the shop and we had to move on.

That's when we went a mile or so down Buford Hwy to Hybrid Motorsports. That little lot held more cars than you'd think. That lasted for a few months as well.

A couple of local shops, like (the one Brooks worked for for a minute?) held a monthly meet at their shop, but pretty much after the Hybrid meets broke down, everyone pretty much went their own ways. People started coming to meets with "something to prove" and chips on their shoulders and the regulars said fucc it and moved on.

To my knowledge, that is the history of the (IA) meets from 2000 til around 2003. I say IA in quotes because most of them were NOT actual IA meets but consisted of about 85% members. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

This was taken at the Sonic on JCB in November of 2002. That is Brett on the right with both hands in the air. Like he just don't care. This was a meet with Unique Creations and Koncept Racing. Later, QD.

Is that an integra with a T top behind the accord?

[Ran]

Memories for sure.... These young bucks have no clue as to what it was like back in the day...Times must have been rough, because those rides are awful. :lmao:

[Psycho]

Times must have been rough, because those rides are awful. :lmao:
Yeah, the cars are awfully ricey. But from what QD was explaining, it sounds like the scene back then was really cool because of the people. Really, in the car scene, the people that own the cars are more important than the cars themselves. Any one can spend all their money to make a nice car, but if they're a total ****, no one will like them.

If there's one thing that I learned from the downfall of SpeedMonkey and Project Motor Sports, it's this: The cars are what initiates the bond between a group of enthusiasts, but it's the personality of the individuals that keeps that bond going.

thats accually an accord, with a t-top, and an integra front conversion.

[MistaCee]

today it is clean, and JDM angle shots...

Yeah the cars brought us all out and because of the car scene back then I have quite a few great friends from those days. I remember when Steve had the first set of Lambo Doors when Decah came out with them, he rocked them for his mag. feature then took them off like 2 months later because everyone started doing it.

[Sledlude]

wow... oldies but goodies.

[chrisdavis]

LOL I remember when b@d @pple's ride ended up on the rice cop website and everyone from IA went over and flamed the **** out of them in thier forums

[Axix23]

[quickdodge®]

And then it was off to court the presences of underage fema...........oh wait....that was just you. Later, QD.

[Bballjamal]

morland, rigth off of sidney marcus where BG used to be.. and a few others..


Truff! Moreland/Camp Creek/South Fulton since I was a young buck going out with my uncles! They were mini truckers and hot rodders though. I dunno much about the small cars besides moreland in 2000.

[OTG Signs]

Damn. I remember all of this. :lmfao:

[Kevykev]

I personally wasn't a fan of the T-Top Accord or the shaved Buddy Club Accord.



Times must have been rough, because those rides are awful. :lmao:


That "scene" wasn't that long ago but, It's kinda like someone's kid laughing at what their parent used to wear in high school. **** was Hott during those times but to you, you just won't understand.

[AnthonyF]

damn that is a long time ago! I miss those days when people didnt hate on everyones car b/c it wasnt JDM.

-Ant.

[1439/2000]

Wow I remember rolling up to Lams in my Volvo to check out the junk laying around.

Gainesville 2001 wasnt really popping.



LOLOL
Later, 1439/2000.

[1439/2000]

How about this for old....I went on a mtn run, thats right a MOUNTAIN RUN with Erin (HiPSI) and Alfonso (AnothaRRR) back when their cars made like 200whp and before my s14 had any work to it.

Erin is in to drifting and still goes to the mountains but the Integra went to run 10s and be an all out drag car. This was 2002 I believe.
