Anyone and everyone welcome......LX Models meet....we like the rest of those 300's, Magnums and fast little SRT's too.

I'm still in Florida, heading to Chicago tonight, then back in PA around midnight on Thursday. My biggets dilemna with this meet is the car needs a bath.....man its gonna be cold out there. But like last time, a gortex glove, warm bucket of water, and chamois drying in the garage will have to do.

Look forward to meeting everyone, seeing some awesome cars, different mods, setups, exhausts, etc..

LOL - I am trying to get up there. My wife is hosting this baby shower at the house on Sunday and I have to get me and the dog out of the house. I'm going to try and leave the dog at my parents. We'll see.

They are calling for quite a bit of snow tomorrow around here. There is going to be some dirty Chargers up there on Sunday.

[BT1024]

- A Quick note:

In case you need a final "head count' for making reservations - I may not be able to make it - or I will only be there for a short period of time.

[RobAGD]

Bummer, I have to work :( I would come up at some point on a sunday thats not around X-Mass ;) Weee Retail !

Have fun guys and gal. I have a feeling that there will be very little meeting in the lot and a lot more bending of elbows inside.

-Robert

[jcmeci]

I don't think I will will make it. I have to come up to King of Prussia on Monday afternoon and not carzy about doing it twice in two days. Drove to Harrisburg on Wednesday and really busy with the holidays fast approaching...we will see!

[PaCharger]

No problem guys. Didn't plan on making reservations....we can just wing it based off anyone who wants to stick around.

I'm still planning on heading up...Hope a couple of you guys make it out. Just made it back from a Florida to Chicago trip. Got stuck last night in Chicago, made it back and was glad to finally see my charger again. Got temps to 183, then whomped on it on 283 just to remind her I was home...:grin:

[nCHARGE]

The wife and I are still in. Be there or be square.

[Paradog]

Sorry Folks...family get together Sunday... this wasn't planned either!

[PaCharger]

Anyone have a decent digital to get some pics of all the chargers together? Mine is headed to a nieces birthday party......(i got a pass, lucky me!).

Yea... I'll bring mine. Its an ancient digital (640x480), but it will do the job.


So who's all going??

[PaCharger]

just washed mine, now i have to drive 60 miles and keep it clean, oh well, most of the dirve is rte 222 expressway and the turnpike. WE'll see how i do.

When we planned this a bunch of folks were planning on coming. Hoping we get a few guys and gals up there. Either way, i'm comming. Really want to hear your exhaust too. Gonna be nice to actually see some mods that other folks have done and know how to do.

I'll be up there by 11:30am.

(PaCharger)

[nCHARGE]

Sounds good to me... had to work all day today and didn't get the chance to clean her up, NO carwash for this ride. Hopefully I can do it in the AM. Seeya's then, looking foward to it. Should be cruising in about 11:45 - 12ish.

I'm a real coffee lover. No sissy flavors, no cream or sugar.

But every once in a while....

Just have one brewing while drinking another. :DChain coffee drinking:D

[PaCharger]

Well, We met on the wintry day here in the northeast. Paul (NECharger), Rich & Dawn (nCharge) with their friend Joe, and THE postmeister, a14umbra (Mike) and myself.

Paul had to head out early and Mike got there right after he left, but we had a couple cameras clicking away, hoods popped, exhaust fired up and enjoyed some warm food and drink.

Glad to meet all of you...sweet rides, even the one with ALL of the LEAVES stuck in each crevese....won't rat you out, but wow, taking them out might make the car faster and quieter :wink:.

Hope everyone made it back safe, enjoyed!

Leaves... they were BIG A$$ leaves, like Adam would have loved them.

Anyways glad to have met, and enjoyed the chat. Meal was good too. It will only get better from here. When's the next one? Just hope not so many people show up next time.... :rolleyes:

Heres a few pics....

[nCHARGE]

Out of all the spots in the parking lot... this guy had to park next to a14umbra.

[PaCharger]

Those red chargers are like magnets....thinking of getting a pair for future parking excursions.. :grin: :wink:

thanks for posting pics...i knew you and dawn took about a 100 of them...
even LOOKs cold in those pics!

[nCHARGE]

A few more for your viewing pleasure....

Being flanked by two Inferno Chargers I'd feel safe too. :devil:

PACharger begged us to park this way. He's such a freak about his car. :whistle:













I can't believe I let myself be seen in public with these guys :)

[PaCharger]

Hehe...that cop came over earlier just to see our cars. He had a 1969 Charger still being put together.

Good pics!

[MCaesar]

.......i get the sneaky suspicion i may be the only one in the lot doing donuts and racing 1/8 mile sprints with stopwatches...hmmmm....

Darn

I can't believe that I never saw this thread until today!

Count me in on the next one

[nCHARGE]

a14... I knew your camera was better than mine. :wink: Nice pic's, and I like the tags.

[NECharger]

Damn nCHARGE,
You got all those pictures posted that quick with a 640x480 camera that only has a SERIAL connection to upload the pictures. :happy:

Dawn was a trooper for hanging out in the cold and taking the pictures. :rockon:

nCharge, I liked your intake and cool dash and console decor.

PaCharger, must be nice to be the first one there and get to clean your car. :happy: Thanks for letting me check out the R/T suede seats. They were sweet! Love the magnesium color. Really nice ride, you got a great deal.

Now I'm paranoid. I'm gonna go out with the flashlight and look for leaves in my crevices. :happy: I'm hoping that was A14. :happy:

A14, sorry I missed you, but I was already an hour late for a family brunch with Santa.

Thanks guys, looking forward to the next one.

[nCHARGE]

Damn nCHARGE,

My camera is as fast as my car!

Dawn was a trooper for hanging out in the cold and taking the pictures. :rockon:
Thats my girl!

nCharge, I liked your intake and cool dash and console decor.
I was wondering if anyone noticed the carbon fiber.... forgot myself to show ya's. Thanks for the comps.

Now I'm paranoid. I'm gonna go out with the flashlight and look for leaves in my crevices. :happy: I'm hoping that was A14. :happy:
Hummmm thats three denials... wonder

Thanks guys, looking forward to the next one.
It was a pleasure... oh yea... nice ride too. Are you sure those aren't 20's????

[PaCharger]

nice meeting you Paul. Got the car clean about 2miles before i got there...but seeing that i had a longer ride, figured it was the least i could do to wipe the tire shmutz off the fenders.

Good looking rides, all of them.

nCharge's painted grill really popped, twice as nice as even the pics. Most all of us had different wheels and tires, so that was neat to see the diff.

a14 got a steal of a deal on an auto dim rearview mirror.

Those winter wheels you got look great moving...and look like 20" wheels sitting still. Smart move on the winter Pirellis.

Hope the brunch was fun!

[nCHARGE]

Things could have been different, I asked my dealer to find a "Mag" Charger for me with NAV... no go, went with the Inferno on the spot. Your car's color and the black/chrome accents fit nice together. Sweet combo.

Its also funny that we both have the same rez cut out and the cars sound a bit different. These cars have as much personality as their owners. You gotta love it.

[PaCharger]

yeah, all the little stuff adds up and makes them all a bit different. I really liked your tips...do you have a part number, make, model?

[nCHARGE]

Those winter wheels you got look great moving...and look like 20" wheels sitting still. Smart move on the winter Pirellis.

Yea Paul those tires had massive grid lines... they'll bite. Nice.

and... are you sure they aint 20's?

[a14umbra]

A14, sorry I missed you, but I was already an hour late for a family brunch with Santa.



I think I said "Dang! I was looking forward to meeting Paul.", about 4 times.

Oh well, next time. :happy:

[Notaf4nboiE]

Good to see some made it. Too bad I couldn't show ya'll what one wash since August looks like...maybe next time.

:santa:

[PaCharger]

If we do it in the spring I'll bring a leaf rake for one of our members to detail his car....:wink: no names of course, but his name it now out of my avatar...:grin: :wave:

[nCHARGE]

Sorry Doug, no part number. Got them at Pep Boy's. I'm sure they all have them. They have the angle cut too. They do say 3R Racing. See pic.

I say a leaf blower... how much HP gain ya think?

[PaCharger]

hehe, mike get a small inverter, we can get a few leaf blowers as your new exhaust mod......:grin: j/k :wink: :tongue: :rockon:

[PaCharger]

too funny, googled [3R Racing] and the only thing a came up with was a viper race car on an xbox game called Forza Motorsports.....

i'll keep digging, thanks for the pic though, looked and sounded awesome

[Notaf4nboiE]

If we do it in the spring I'll bring a leaf rake for one of our members to detail his car....:wink: no names of course, but his name it now out of my avatar...:grin: :wave:


And can ya'll get a "Charger Car Wash" going? I'd like to see how the "pros" do it. Ya'll can practice on mine. ;)

[a14umbra]

hehe, mike get a small inverter, we can get a few leaf blowers as your new exhaust mod......:grin: j/k :wink: :tongue: :rockon:


Just wait til I get my 20Hp hood struts. Then we'll see who's laughing.:D

[NECharger]

nCharge's painted grill really popped, twice as nice as even the pics.

Oh yeah, nCharge did a good job. It took me a while to realize he painted the chrome. It matched the inferno color to a tee. I like the honey comb grill.

Did you get a14 to pop his hood? There are probably some animals living under his Hemi Hood that made a nest from the leaves.

[nCHARGE]

Just wait til I get my 20Hp hood struts. Then we'll see who's laughing.:D

and a roll of chicken wire! :whistle:

[nCHARGE]

yeah, all the little stuff adds up and makes them all a bit different. I really liked your tips...do you have a part number, make, model?

Just figured it out why you couldn't find it under 3R Racing. Its 3A Racing!!!!!! Duhhhh. Sorry Doug, I'm getting old and I can't see.

Here's the link.

[nCHARGE]

It was good to see all. I'm sure we would have discovered alot more in the 4 cars if it was a bit warmer and had more time to pick things apart.

Food was good and made a few friends... all in all a good day I think. Dawn and I thank you.

[Dacnar]

Sounds like you guys had a great time, hopefully when spring rolls around the wife and I will make the 3hr ride up from N.Y. for the meet. Good to see new friends being made here, this is truly a great site :grin:

[a14umbra]

Sorry Doug, I'm getting old and I can't see.



GETTING old?


Sorry man, you set yourself up for that one.

I had a great time today. It's was great finding out that these guys are as nice in person as online.

Okay, that's the last compliment from me. They're just not as much fun as telling PACharger that his car's slow. :happy:

$4.99 for the shirt! Wow nice find. Was that a group buy?

[a14umbra]

$4.99 for the shirt! Wow nice find. Was that a group buy?


I walked into Kohls to find a coat for one of my sons. I spotted some Mustang T-Shirts, so I went over to see what else they had. They had about 6 of these left. The sign said $9.99, so I grabbed one. When I got to the register, it rang up as $4.99. The cashier confirmed that $4.99 was the correct price.

[nCHARGE]

Sure go in for a winter coat and come out with a summer t. Something I would do.

He'll dress in a tshirt and thong just to see if the car can go as fast as the magnesium beast...:wink:

[mywhitecharger]

MAN - sounds like I missed a good time.
Had to get the dog out of the house for the baby shower... :sad:
So wasn't able to make it :sad: :sad:

Hope to make it next time.

Nice rides all.

[wtf44]

Sounds like you all had a good time I had to work or i would have been there.

LOL - Today is a great day - I'd wash the ride if it wasn't going to be raining the rest of the week.

Not sure if this weekend is to soon for anyone - but it's supposed to be mid 50's around here and not raining unitl Sunday so Saturday may work.

It's kind of late though.
