http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v301/nniemik/2005-4-28%20TOprotege%20Eastside%20Meet/100_0507.jpg


Thats all the pics i had...i was going to cruise with everyone to All Star but at Woodbine, fricken Mazda 626 was tailgating me and cut me off so i missed the woodbine turn, i ended up going straight and by the time i made the U-turn back onto Woodbine, i couldn\'t find the group anymore... :( I turned at highway 7 and went home...

[wtom]

Holy crap man you need to use an online photos hosting site hahahaha Thanks for all the photos though!!! Sorry lost you at the first traffic light! Man I\'m never driving down McCowan again (Scarlem section)... pot holes cracks and craters oh my!

My pics are here... definitely not as many as Spyder01 got. It was too damn cold man. Also I headed home for dinner before everyone else cruised to All Stars for wings. No idea how that went for them?

Scooter, awesome meet, thanks to post up the invite! I\'m sure all of these pics will bring out more TM3 peeps next time! If not that, then definitely bring some models like the one in your banner;

And as always (if not most of the time), teasers;

That\'d be Junior (red P5), me, unknown Mazda3 owner who left early, and shermanleesm (you lurker!!!) hahaha

LoL scoot, sryz about that...19\".....even more careful with potholes :sarc

[wtom]

Hahaha at least they didn\'t have to say \"some ****ing punk in a blue mazda3 with stickers cut us off!!!!\" LOL

EDIT: Dude don\'t you hate the ****ing cheap ass CanTi ricers in our area? Holy frig man even at like 3am those a-holes still speed through the neighbourhood in their fart canned or holey mufflerized sh*t boxes. I seriously hate the damn ricers in this neighbourhood. Finally lately I\'ve been hearing a boxer engine ... music to my ears! (WRX/STi)

lol wtom, the other end of your street has a few rice cars...hehe the white civic hatch. I remember just before the snow, i noticed tire marks (dounuts) all over the whole street....probably them. hehe at the moment, there are a few ricers but they usually keep it down around my street. i think the boxer engine you hear are my neighbours!! I don\'t know if they live here or not but my neighbour always has 2 G35 (grey + black) parked outside with the same rims (brothers?) The guy that owns the house has a Bmw 325xi which sounds very nice at high revvs too. The G35 gives out that hollow exhaust sound which could be what you are hearing.


Edit: Warren, what happened to that other winning blue mazda3 that was at scab town?? Was he just someone eating at Jack Astors?

[Shat2]

lol woah i didn\'t even know there was a car meeting near Scab Town... lol and i only live in those apartments in the background of ur picture LOL :(

[mEtH]

im sure more ppl would of showed if it wasn\'t that early. Its hard to get to scarb town from west end during rush hour traffic.

[Scooter]

True. But that\'s why I posted the full itinerary. People could have dropped in at any of the stops.

Anyway....no worries. It was a great meet. Maybe we\'ll see you guys at some other meets in the summer.

[wtom]

Dude in white civic is 80% working on his car in his garage if he\'s home. I feel like yelling out to him that he should save his time and money and spend it on a Mazda3 instead. :p

The other WB hatch no idea who those guys were. I talked to them but seemed like lurker on this board. No idea why but they just suddenly left.

[wtom]

No probs, Frankie. Name\'s Warren. I only called you Junior all this time anyway. :D

I love the mixed meets. Problem is, after a meet, my interest levels for mods skyrocket!
