Default Import wars

I went to import wars today and wasn't really too impressed. You had to walk through all of the jap cars to get to the vw's. And i thought the dubs would have a better showing. Som really nice ones i just thought there would be more. I met Brian(silvergti) and Team speed and sound. Both with nice cars. I met Dave and saw his car, (I liked mini me Hahaha.) And it rained up untill my son got fussy so we went home and before we got there the sun came out. [img]images/smiles/icon_mad.gif[/img] I hate when that happens. Well i met some of the vwf peeps and ordered my vwf member decals. So it wasn't a total waste of time. Hopfully next year i'll show and there will be some more dubs. Somebody might have pics of the cars that were there.

Chris was that your jetta with the primer on the doors? I thought it kinda looked like it but i didn't get a chance to stop and talk to you. I didn't get a chance to go to the gtg. It would be great if there would be another one somtime. Later

(zach, chris, brett, keith, harry, mark, jessie, boosted bora (didnt catch your name), matt-aka big dong, jettablitzkreig(didnt catch your name either)). sorry if I missed anyone, but I had a good time. It was cool to see the ones who came to the gtg. thanks for coming, and will see you at waterfest, if not sooner.

It was good to meet you. I was also pretty impressed with the turnout of dubs, and I hope next year is even better.

We should all get together for the VW Power Jam in Maple Grove. I went last year and there were about 100-150 dubs and audi's plus a drag race event. I will definately be there racing this year. Last year was 1/8 mile, but this year is 1/4 mile. Here is a link.

Maple Grove VW Super Jam

It is on 6/8/03. Hope to see some of you there!
