NELOC White Marsh Meet 3/4/12 Pics Thread
Great to put lots of faces to all these screen names. And great to drive down with the NY/NJ crew, and then Todd and I zipped back North.
For the next meet in a few months, we can do a daytime caravan first, and then an evening parking garage event, likely at Towson University....at the Bill Bateman's garage. And then we can just eat at Bill Bateman's (they even have better food).
And maybe we do a Saturday instead of a Sunday, then less of us will be in a rush to depart at the end (just a thought).
But a great turnout of Lexuses, great job TJ and others putting together this meet. And the next one will be even better.

any place just south of the city would work much better for me, and maybe for those coming from nova locations and what not,, maybe on the north side of dc next time
So, just plan a Saturday meet next time, about 4 hours before it gets dark. That gives us about 4 hours of daylight still shots and caravanning (for rolling shots) and then we can go eat....and then once it's dark, we can just go outside and do some nighttime parking garage shots. That would be a great day of driving and primo still shots if planned right.

They'll be plenty of meets happening south of town too, this one doesn't need to be one of them.
If you guys check the Event thread most of the meets we set up for the future are on a Saturday. So make sure you guys try to request off from work now or in a enough time so you can make the meets!!

The roads also suck *** when leaving northbound out of the tunnel so I try not to take my rims through that nonsence. I know u can relate to someone wanting to go easy on their car, ahem kevin

Seriously, I'm in NYC right now, with my Lexus on 20s. And I'm on the LIE, the BQE and the streets of Manhattan. NOTHING is as crappy as these roads. But I am adept at dodging, and I am lucky to have oversize tires on the front for protection (thank goodness!).
So, you can go through the tunnel and dodge a few holes along the way. I just went through there, and it's not too bad really....they've patched 'em all up, it's just rough, so it's bumpy. But passable for sure.
I expect to see you at the next meet, Sojah, and we can caravan up together. I'll take the smoothest route just for you.
that is about the roughest stretch of road, like you were saying its bumpy and rough. i actually bent one of my wheels last year about this time going through there... now i'm all skittish and go like 40 and **** off everyone around me when leaving out of the tool booth headed north for the first half mile. i was on 225x35x20 stretched and 255x30x20 stretched tires at the time.
last time i drove my car in NYC on the way back my stock air susp (had the air controller to ride slammed) went out and thats when i switched to coilovers,, now i just take the bus or my wifes car
