[kkozy1982]

After receiving sponsorship continental...

we received our banner for maxus from them as well~

there's a few more updates/potentials to report but i'll let xander do that.

[Xmax]

Good to hear that we got a banner from Continental Nissan.

Ultimate Z in Streamwood is another potential sponsor for an install day on Saturday June 21st.

[kkozy1982]

do you know how soon we'll find that out?

we need to get the booklets done...

[Xmax]

I'll stop by there this Wednesday, the owner just got married so I don't know exactly where we stand at this point. But I got his interest.

[Bluesbrekr]

Any specific info on the hotel? Phone #, room discount etc.?

[Xmax]

Not yet, still working that out. Shopping around right now for the best prices in the area.

[97SMG]

Isn't it in like 3 weeks? I'm surprised nothing has been finalized yet....

[DasTeknoViking]

ehh whats the exact date ? I'm going to MI for a weekend in June.... chance are its probably on the same weekend I have to be in MI, its always like that.

[Ovaltine Jenkins]

19-22nd. Not sure why it matters since you made it clear on a few occasions u weren't interested in showing...

[DasTeknoViking]

I won't be around that weekend, plus why would I be even needed ?

[walec05]

well, im leaving to poland on the 20th of june. guess i will not be attending either. sorry, i though you guys were honestly doing it earlier.

[Xmax]

Not sure why you guys didn't know the date, the date has been posted over and over again for the past few months. A few things are already finalized, lot at the woods, schedule, things like that. Ordering trophies, t-shirts, and hotel is probably the few things that we need to take care of.

i want a shot glass Pawel!! i don't have one from poland yet... you will be missed.

as for the rest of the maxus stuff...

1. the dates was the first thing we set and brian's been advertising on the org. The only thing that got changed was instead of from the 19th to the 22nd, it's 20th to the 22nd.
2. most of the other things will be taken care of by the end of today.

[Ovaltine Jenkins]

[DasTeknoViking]

true true.

[Bluesbrekr]

Hotel info would be appreciated as soon as you have it nailed down. Tim and I may be down on Wednesday. Bryan Lee is playing that night at Buddy Guy's Legends.

[kkozy1982]

I believe Xander has them... i'll bug him to post.

[Xmax]

Sorry about that Tom, I'd post over the weekend in regards to the hotel info, but my hard drive went out, so the only time I could post the info is when I'm at work. But yes, it will be the same hotel as last year, the Hampton Inn in Hoffman Estates and its priced at $79 a night. I tried to get a discount but I was unsure of how many people needed a room. Here is the info.

Hampton Inn
2825 Greenspoint Parkway
Hoffman Estates, Illinois, USA, 60169
1-847-882-4301

[Bluesbrekr]

Thanks for the info, Xander. Hope you get your home unit running soon.

[Ovaltine Jenkins]

[Goldtooth]

[Goldtooth]

[walec05]

wow, a catered event.....can you spell special........

[DasTeknoViking]

they moved a family event cause *I* am driving people down there. plus some other family members cant make it either.

[RobSE]

Nissan engineers will have to answers many of these "Why isn;t the new maxima offered in a 6mt?"

[DasTeknoViking]

my questions will be good :0

[walec05]

are they going to be engineers, or sales people???

cuz i really dont think the engineers from MRC will be comming down.

[Ovaltine Jenkins]

this is a nissan event and nissan is sponsoring us, if anyone is thinking about bashing nssan or asking questions that somehow put the company down, don't bother...

[Xmax]

This weekend guys!!!

[NIGHTMAREuki]

Nissan engineers will have to answers many of these "Why isn;t the new maxima offered in a 6mt?"

IF 50%+ of maximas there would be manual that would be a valid question, but only 10 will be manual ....... you get the point

auto 4DSC:gtfo2:

[DasTeknoViking]

So will they have the GT-R there ? Don't care bout "4DSC". That worked in the 90s, not today when econoboxes can spank a Maxima.

[NIGHTMAREuki]

So will they have the GT-R there ? Don't care bout "4DSC". That worked in the 90s, not today when econoboxes can spank a Maxima.

they have to make a maxima that can do 14s 1/4mil with 5 people in the car

so it has to be very smart AWD and have 400+ HP & TQ... and look like 5.5 gen(pearl while :drool:)

that would be real 4DSC:leghump:

[DasTeknoViking]

No it just has to look like a good looking car, RWD + M/T tranny and over 300HP in a car thats about 3300lbs.

Families in Europe travel in cars like Polos, Golfs, Fabias, Focus' in no problem....

Loose some fukn weight fat piece of sh!t Americans. We don't need gigantic land yachts that get 20MPG and get to 60 in the same amount of time as 200HP 17 year old Maximas- which are more fun to drive !

Back to the topic.... what about dyno or something on Sat ?

[Xmax]

Back to the topic.... what about dyno or something on Sat ?

We got Saturday filled in, and I looked into that and a lot of local shops are closed, filled in, or I don't trust them.

[Goldtooth]

So theres no dyno at all?

[Ovaltine Jenkins]

So will they have the GT-R there ? Don't care bout "4DSC". That worked in the 90s, not today when econoboxes can spank a Maxima.

why would they have a gtr at a maxima meet?

[DasTeknoViking]
