Ya, I'll be there. I think he was talking about the one off dravus, but I cant be 100%. Ill have to ask. He said he doesnt think I can finish one, so Im guessing they're pretty damn big....but I dont think he knows how much I can eat

Im down for a mountain meet as well. I can't drive but I just got a new snowboard this year after not having one for 2 years, so Im trying to go up a lot this season.

I never actually seen you eat a lot, we should do an eating contest for the CL one of these days. Have like hot dog eating contest like the ones you see on tv lol...

I think it's a good idea to do this mountain meet I start a thread soon about it. Last time I went snowboarding with my friends down in SoCal I ended up on my ass haha I'm going to have to learn more, not really good snowboarder. It would definitely fun, and I'll photoshoot and video shoot everybody in snow action

Niiiiccceeee. With the rack on the wagon, you can carry like 4 people AND gear. Too bad you dont have air suspension to just raise is up extra high and throw some really knobby tires on.

RWD w/all seasons doesn't perform as well as winter tires.

I go Crystal mtn A LOT and all-seasons will not not cut it. I rather use specialty tires to it's max potential. When spring time comes around then I will switch to summer tires for better traction/grip and handling. When there's snow/ice/black ice on the ground or when it get's below 45 degrees.....all-seasons are terrible....they are just overrated.

I am not getting new rims until this spring, I been saving up for 18's. Don't know if I am getting the BBS LM's but it's my top 3. Still pondering....

Dude slapping some 18's on that sportX would set it off. It would def look sick man. Especially the BBS LM's!

Woot!!! Yes tomorrow is the meet! I'll be there early, in case anybody else can't find it call me. I'll be standing by the front door if not, I'll be by the side parking lot. It should be right next to a starbucks. There's a lot of small bars and restaurants nearby so look out for the red mills burger, it's a red building glued next to starbucks. I went there to check it out on Monday and seems like a chill place.

Remember friends and families are welcome, but most of all please be courteous and follow traffic regulations. Thanks guys, I'll see you guys tomorrow at 12:30 at Red Mills and I'll be bringing my new cameras and gears to photoshoot tomorrow.

Here's a copy of the first post:
Update: A casual clublexus meet, where everybody gets together, chill out, have fun, and enjoy the day. Everyone is welcome to the meet, you may bring your friends if you would like to. Please remember to be courteous and follow all traffic law regulations, and no stupid stunts please! Hope to see everyone there!
