Nopi TunerFest Shootout – 9/19/09 – Free car show, dyno runs, food/games

It was a rainy day, but still fun, nonetheless. ImportAtlanta.Com, Mainstream Performance, NOPI, NOS Energy Drink, Thinline IT, Zen Motors, Traffic Jam Motorsports, and friends/supporters put on a great event. The food was free, which I heard ran out very quick. There was plenty to do and see. The turnout was great. The video only covers about half the cars that showed up. The Old School Japanese Car meet was held at TunerFest, as well. I can only say so much. You just had to be there. I added some screenshots. Enjoy the vid! It’s at the very bottom.

The on-going ImportAtlanta thread. Also, on VRT.

I was going through my photo stash and wanted to post this up. Photo was taken by Khris H. Pictured is Jerry’s rotary-powered TE31 Toyota Corolla. I’m glad he was finally able to drive it on the street. Next to it is Vin’s Mitsubishi Galant VR-4. You can find them at local drag events.

Local Hachi Roku Hero Places at SouthEast Drift Challenge II…

toyota corolla ae86 drift emporium g35 drift battle

Equipped with a 20v blacktop 4AGE – Kelvin qualified for top 16 during the single runs and had to face the Batlground S14, then a boosted IS300 to qualify for Top 4. After moving on, Kelvin was able to take 3rd place against the Drift Emporium G35 (supercharged V8). He was later knocked out by George in the red s13, who took 2nd place.

It was the classic David vs Goliath theme. You have to give it up for all the drivers. It’s not easier following an AE86’s slower line when you have to control a car with way more horsepower. Congrats to all the drivers. Congratulations Kelvin!! I’m so proud you, dude!

Take note: There was a no passing rule in effect. Hitting cones and straightening out counted against the drivers. Spinning out, even if it was at the very end, counted heavily against final scores.

Atlanta Varsity Meet – 8/06/09

Date: 16 August, 2009  |  Posted By: puregroove  |  Category: Atlanta, Automotive, Meets, Old School, Nostalgic, Classic, Vintage, Wheels

For those that have not heard of this monthly meet in Atlanta, at the Varsity, it’s something else. I, do, enjoy covering it from time to time. Every first Thursday of the month is when it occurs. There’s all different types of cars, bikes, and trucks. Pretty much anything goes. It’s becoming so crowded, all the spots fill up by 7 o’clock in the summer time. Well, enough jabberin’, on to the pics:
