    Default The Varsity Meet................

    WARNING: THIS A RANT.

    I have actively going to V meets for the past 7 years. Hardly ever miss a summer meet and make at least 6-7 a year. I'm not sure when this turned into a fuckin Young Jeezy music video but it is getting real old. Multiple times I was mid conversation with friends and physically had to stop talking to wait for the piece of shit donk to drive past me so the speakers in his front grill would not drown out us talking.

    I don't know about you but I would rather see the ricers being stupid and the burnouts that this hoodrat shit. Parking there is already hard to come by yet I see these donk's park sideways so save spots and just to stunt(which is a bad habit).

    This meet reminds me of this forum, too far gone to be saved. Which is sad, I have had so many good times with friends in that parking lot. I have laughed till I cried more times than I can count, seen so much "epic" shit, the LOLerDrama and so many amazing memories. I honestly think it has been killed.

    Bring on the cool story bro comments and tell me how you have known the meet sucked for years because your are a car scene hipster

    I imagine the muscle car guys said much the same thing when the imports started showing up.


    Why can't we all just get along?

    I haven't been to a V meet in a long time because of the shenanigan's that I personally dislike. It's not worth the gas.

    It sucks, but shit happens.

    You're just jealous that you can't get 26"s on yo ride. Don't be hatin' just because you don't have the fund to get a 30 year old car, and can't afford the Maaco paint job.

    Why you got to talk bad about my ride like dat? Sure, it has its flaws like the speaker wires laid over the top of the back seat, but those that are in da scene know dats how we roll!

    Why you got to ackt like your special? All you did was buy a new car, and bolt on a big turbo. Anyone could do dat. Where are you going to use your billion hp? At the track? What's the point of going around a bunch of turns and ending up back where you started?

    You keep your little matchbox car - I'll keep my ride that's so hot that I might get shot!

    It has always been an import meet, I don't mind the V8 guys being there and to be honest it is not about the type of car you drive/build it is about your behavior. I am sure not every one of the donk's have disrespectful douche bag owners but it seams like that is the majority.

    This is the type of activity that I am seeing too. I saw somebody "hollering" at a guys girlfriend as he was walking through the parking lot with her. It has just gotten really out of hand.

    It just sucks that an awesome opportunity to show your car and meet cool people is turning into an excuse for some to show they're ass and annoy people!
    Not gonna be long, before fights start breaking out and, of course, lead to a shot being fired.
    BUT, Atlanta IS the "Black Capitol of the South" and Donks are a part of the culture.
    You really can't expect to have this big of an event, DOWNTOWN, and think that the locals aren't going to want to check it out.
    Besides, like it or not, they're "car guys", just like the rest of us and weather you appreciate their rides or not, Donks are just another aspect of the "car culture".
    I just hope that we can all learn to "mesh" together, like with the muscle cars, bikes and lifted or lowered trucks.

    I mean, the donk style is not my thing but the donks are not my issue here....it is the stupidity that has came along with them.

    It is, what it is though. It just makes me sad that the meet has turned out like it is. I used to really enjoy the V meets.

    I've been to near all of them for the past 2 years, but I quit going about 3 months ago, there are just too many people. you cant park, you cant hear, and you cant talk. bikes hitting the rev limiter, donks beating down the block and ricer kids doing burnouts.

    I'll probably go back when it gets a little colder out. there is usually less people then.

    The people in these "donk" cars didn't start that, though. The import crowd has been doing this since before "donks" were even around. Later, QD.

    ^^

    Yup.. Its not just the DONK riders, that do this..

    Its just you IMPORT guys, Notice them more.. because well they "seem" to not, fit in. The same goes for Jacked up trucks, ect..

    Point blank is...... GET A SPOT EARLY. then you dont have to worry about it. If MOST of the import guys would get there early, and get the spots. There wouldnt be room for the DONKS to park... simple.


    I feel ALOT of this talk, is coming from folks that, hmmmm.. dont like "black folks"

    I hate racial undertones, to be honest. It always seems like someone has to bring race into any disagreement.

    But I think "donks" are the most ridiculous looking form of automotive customizing out there. But even it falls under the huge customization umbrella, so it's all good.

    And I don't hate black people. Ask my half black daughter. Later, QD.

    I must correct you here, good sir. While car meets have been a part of the varsity's history since its inception, the concept of meeting on the first thursday of every month started as a VW group idea

    Carry on

    ^^^ To be honest, I would like to read about how it got started for real. No one can really narrow it down to any one certain "group." It would be kind of cool to see facts of Varsity meets. Later, QD.

    Nopi was a vw show as well, the 'import' scene killed it off for good. It was nice back in the day.

    NOPI actually started off as a VW/off-road shop and had their shows with those cars along with lowriders, back in the early 90s. Later, QD.

    I was there, and you were too back then. It was more fun back then though.

    I always thought it was originally a VW meet...

    It has nothing to do with the people driving the Donks being black, don't take it there. The dude I was bitching about on page one reving his Integra to shoot flames was white and I don't like him either.

    I guess in my old age I am just getting less tolerant of stupidity so it is starting to get to me when 5-6 years ago I had no problem with it ~shrugs~

    Hey Chad....at least you didn't have that "Butlerized" pile of shit Challenger parked next to you advertising giant ugly wheels to a demographic that can't afford them lol

    Yeah, most of the shit associated with "donks" is fucking retarded...I hope the owner don't think anyone is impressed with their Radio Shack outdoor spearkers mounted in the grill...the only ones who are impressed are other retards with similar shitty "mods"...anyone with 1/4 of a brain just laughs at them.

    Got to remember that The Varsity parking lot used for these meets are NOT sanctioned to those meets. Technically, that is The Varsity's parking lot and is supposed to be solely for Varsity customers. So just as you guys meet there, so can anyone else. Later, QD.
