hmmm i cant really see what communication or cooridnation problems there could have been. Every thing was spelled out in the first post. Even if the meet ups were sour why didnt yall just go to the lakefront ?

I guess I really everyone should have seen the cell #'s we posted and called us guys who were already in NOLA. Nobody from BR, Laf, or elsewhere showed up. Except for Ashley who was in town from LSU anway. I'm sure we'll get back to 10-12 cars next time.
Anybody want to come up with a LA 7thgen club (i.e.-like Stage 7 in Texas)? Just a suggestion.

Someone will get tore up.Well, I got a flat on the way to school. I couldnt get the tire fixed because of the angle of the screw, and the tires are almost bald anyways. Im going to have to save up and get some new tires. Any suggestions? I have neogens right now and would like to get some neogens again. Doesw anyone else have good experiences with tires? Btw, I'm looking to getting 215/45/17.

Rep Power: 0 i just got some Toyo Proxes 4...i love them, much better than the Yokohama Parada Spec2s i had before. They dont handle as good on dry pavement, but close to it. The Toyos are quieter, smoother, and better in the rain.

Rep Power: 0 Whats up everyone?
Right now I'm pricing Toyo, Yohohama, Nitto, and Pirelli tires. Goodyear also looks good. I'm going this weekend to price how much to fix my 2 rims that I curbed last year. Hopefully it wont be too much. I'm also looking for a job. I'm waiting for the bust buy woman to call me back.

Rep Power: 0 I totaled my Nissan Frontier on Tuesday. Just thought I'd share. It sucks to see something you put so much time into making it customized to represent yourself smashed and laying hopelessly in your yard. On to the next truck I guess, but I've had this one for 5 years/ 53,000 mi/ 4 years of college....it just sucks ya know!
And before anyone asks, I just lost control of the truck while crossing a two-lane highway into my neighborhood. No slick roads, no wet pavement, no oil on the tires, the brakes just gave and the truck began to fishtail. Lost total control and slammed into an oak tree. Nobody was with me, and nobody else was involved. Just me. I'm putting some pics up on my photo page if you'd like to check it out.
I'm just blessed to be here right now.

Rep Power: 0 turning off lafitte larose hwy into my neighborhood. yeah i'm fine, but my chest is sore from where the airbag hit me. other than that i'm okay....just bummed out about the truck. when you put so much time into making something look that good, you become attached...it's gonna hurt when they tow it away.
probably gonna replace it with a 2003 jeep grand cherokee.
