I read in FSView that the FSU car club, S-Factor, is hosting a show to be held at Doak

Campbell Stadium. The article said they had over 100 show cars already confirmed. More info at www.clubsfactor.org. Anybody coming to this as an entry? Anybody going just to check it out (free for spectators, i think)?

if I've got nothing going on, I'll go just to check it out. I pulled this off that website.

Sound off

seems kind of counterproductive to have a car demolition at a car show, but what the hell.



I might go just for the raffles, if nothing else.

heard that! free entry, free stuff, free eye-candy.



Patrick, have you seen that navy blue 2nd gen with a small red graphic on the doors (dragon?)..Georgia plate. I've pulled up alongside a couple of times but traffic was heavy. Also this past Sunday, met the 3rd gen owner i've seen around town a few times. He's an older guy but very nice. we talked for about half an hour. Hopefully we can arrange a meet some day that'll be larger than the previous ones I've been to.



fritz

I haven't seen that 2nd gen. I've seen several kinda crappy ones. One I've seen is charcoal/dark silver, nice rims, young guy, seen NW side of town. Very sleek car. The only 3rd gen I've seen driving around is the one owned by the guy that used to work at ACE hardware on Tharpe street. Black, exhaust, looks all stock. He picked up payments from his friend who went to jail, that lucky bastard. You probably see more nice cars on the east side, at least that's what I've noticed. I'm off of highway 20 so all I see are 80's v8's and jacked up trucks.



and the wife says she's up for checking out the show at the stadium, so it'll be a family outing https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

hmmmm, i guess no front row at the modeling contest for you..lol https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

do you know what time it starts?



and what color is your fd? (assuming you'll have it there)

judging from the check-in times i'm guessing 10:30-11:00 and anytime after that is a good time to go.



i decided to leave my bone-stock, ding-in-da-hood fd at home and save the $25. Anyways, i'm sure there'll be some "show" 7's there for me to drool at (there better be).



i'll be going in my sentra so i also don't have to worry about dings in the parking lot. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blush.png

dang! we went to tgi fridays last night, and struck up a friendship with the waitress. yadda yadda yadda, we're going to her son's 1st birthday party saturday at around 11:00 on saturday



maybe it'll rain on saturday, and they'll have it sunday https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif



I'm sure the party will be fun, but I wanted to go to the car show https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif I guess it might last all day, so I'll see if I can make it later in the day

it was okay, but for some reason I expected more cars to be there. although, i didn't realize there was that many car clubs in Tallahassee, I've never heard of some of them. NRG was there with their fd with the nissan sr20det(?) engine swap(hmmmm). one of the hosting club cars was a second gen. there was a viper, 3000GT, and S2000.



no other 7's, no nsx, no supra, no celica, no Z, no WRX, no porsche...but hey, it wuz free and i had nothing better to do.

wow, that sounds kinda crappy. anyways, I had a good weekend, so I'm not kicking myself for missing it or anything.

you didn't miss much..they were only able to scrounge up 5 girls for the bikini contest, 2 looked okay...

hey that rx7 with the swap is my buddy shauns. he owns NRG or Upgrade which ever you wanna call it. the last tim ei talked to him he was putting some serious hp down to the ground. i just sold my rx7, because i am in korea. i was on mid tour when the guy came in to get shaun to give him money for the show. he had some wacked out ideas, but i guess he got a **** load of money from fsu to put the show on. i am sure tally hasnt changed since i left. a lot of rice and a lot of dumb car clubs. there are only a few clubs that know what the hell they are doing. i will be home in july i might have to hook up with you guys to check out your rides. well talk to you guys later and have fun in sunny fla.





later sully

yeah, i remember your car being on sale in the cars for sale section..it was heavily modified right? I remember hopin' it would stay in Tally since I've only personally seen 3 FDs and heard about 1 more. I think I was a couple cars behind you once on capital circle NE..it would've been this past year..and the car was coming out of that road where NRG is...large single exhaust, right? I wasn't able to pull alongside before you turned off. but i'm sure you'd find my fd boring as it is still bone stock.



I've seen a good number of 2nd gens and a few 1st gens.

if the one with fat single exhaust was black, it might be the one belonging to the guy I talked to (can't remember his name) who used to work at ACE hardware on Tharpe St. He said he got it from a friend who went to jail, but didn't want his credit ruined. The only other fd I've seen was a red one at whataburger. Was that yours, fritz?



there's a gold n/a fc (looks just like mine!) at this junkyard off of swampfox road on cc NW. It has a better interior (and exterior, before Tim yanked the front end off) than mine! supposedly it overheated. it's a private yard, and not for pickin', which sucks for me https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png

the fd i saw was m.blue.



If you were at whataburger on halloween, then yeah that was mine. you said you were friends with a guy from Thomasville, didn't you? Was he there w/ a 2nd gen and a female companion?



i saw another fc today, california plate # 2CPY049(i think?). man, i need something like a rolled up flyer with silly putty on one end so i can throw the flyer at all these 7's i'm seeing in traffic. have you seen a bright yellow 1st gen around? I've seen it once.



as far as the junkyard...yeah, i've also been searching for public auctions nearby but i couldn't find one in Tally...only for dealers



is your pulley belt situation resolved?

yes, that was tim with the red fc and his asian-looking wife, marissa (I think). He's probably overseas now, I can't ever get ahold of him.



I always see that yellow 1st gen at the civic center on my way to/from work. I've never got an up-close look, but it looks nice from a distance.



if you're looking for auctions for any type of car, check out the state surplus vehicle auctions. cars, trucks, boats, large equipment...all kinds of stuff. You could call the agency and see when their next auction is.
