    Default Old Skool Japanese car meet Sat, Oct 25 1:00 pm

    This time, No dirt roads, paved parking, and grills for a small nominal entry fee. (like $4.00 or less. Ft Yargo charges a day use fee)

    This will be our second, all Japanese, Old Skool meet this summer. We plan on getting things started, at 3:00, at Fort Yargo park, on Saturday, August 16. I'm going to try to reserve a picnic pavillion for shelter, and cooking out.

    At this event, we are going to try to do some really nice photos, and document the Old Skool cars out and about in our area. Also we want to discuss getting together some O/S cars to hit Nopi and tunerfest in September.

    So get your brakes fixed, rebuild your carb, and get a tag for your ride if it's not ready We have a month and a half to get our rides on the road. Lets make it BIG. I can see 70 cars at this one, if everyone from the last meet comes out!

    Hope to see you there! Dave

    RSVP at the link below!

    Directions: Take Hwy 316 east (towards Athens), make a left on to hwy 81 (towards Winder) and Ft Yargo will be on the right a couple of miles out 81

    Cool, so you did get the Shag wagon. I will post up directions pretty soon for Ft Yargo. I'd ride up tonight, but I have my son tonight. Gotta do the Daddy thing.

    i think i am just getting the L18 from the shag wagon and putting it in the 4door and just leaving it with that. Prob going to have the shag wagon as a daily for a while until I can find another car . Guy still hasn't picked up the maxima.. soon i'm gonna send his money back minus the good non refundable deposit i have for my time

    Yeah, NAPI, I agree, I haven't been since 2003, but we need to show up with a bunch of O/S cars to some kind of a mainstream event. So, no Tunerfest this year? I went last year and it was pretty cool. About 10 O/s cars were there.
    Did you get that roof rack yet?

    I just checked the Atlanta Dragway schedule, and it has a Midnight madness tunerfest shootout listed for September, 9, but maybe that's not it. There was no information about it.

    Unless there is another Tunerfest. The one I was referring to is the Import Atlanta Tunerfest. Did not get the roof rack. Later, QD.

    About the food...Bring what you want to eat, or bring hotdogs, hamburger meat, chips or something to throw in, and I'm sure we can get the food cooked. I don't mind cooking, but there is no way to know how many people are coming, and how much food we need. If, you don't have the cash to pitch in on some grub, I don't think you would go home hungry.

    Ha! Ha! Ha! What do YOU think? I'm glad your car is stopping now, and that you might grace us with your presence at the next O/S meet.


    PS. Be careful, and make sure your rearend seals are clean and well lubricated before putting the shafts back into their respective locations!?
