Labor Day (month?) Sightings

[FlyBrain]

I'll kick it off with a BMW Z8 Alpina (1of 450 imported, if memory serves) and a Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder.

[Bimmer325]

Wait, wait, wait...FlyBrain?

Who the hell?

[ocnblu]

Satty, no doubt.

Scion xB... parked in front of my aunt's house today... my cousin bought it, traded his Sundance in on it, says he loves it.

A friend of a friend recently traded his '03 BMW 330Ci in for an xB.

[Guest YellowJacket894]

Jesus, how many accounts does Satty have now?

[ocnblu]

Let's see, he's got Satty, Flybrain, wpbharry, YellowJacket498... who else?

[Guest YellowJacket894]

He spoofed me...?

Where was I?

[ocnblu]

:AH-HA_wink:

[Satty]

Huh?

[ocnblu]

I was yanking his chain. It was very enjoyable.

[Guest YellowJacket894]

You had me in the search engine for five minutes, Blu.

...Doesn't he also have the Joshiepoo account?

Edited September 3, 2006 by YellowJacket894

[ocnblu]

I think he has like 42 aliases.

[Satty]

Hell, even I'm confused right now.

[ocnblu]

Is that Chris Kattan (sp?) taking a big gay bite out of crime in your sig, Satty Datty?

[Guest YellowJacket894]

Geeze, Satty. Are you skitzophrenic?

Almost every member here has a dark half.

[ocnblu]

I think it was in the news once. Michael Jackson's member has a dark half. Or was it a brown spot? I forget.

[ocmblu]

[Guest YellowJacket894]

[Satty]

The accounts I am willing to admit to starting over the years:

Satty (duh)

American_Mullet

Your_Mom

wpbharry (communal)

Joshiepoo

ocmblu

Edit: I'm willing to bet that I forgot one or two or a dozen.

[ocnblu]

Who was that Saturnfan dude? Your gay cousin out to smear your good name?

[Satty]

That goes in with Satty, saturnfan was the original, Satty was the "hip" update when we had to re-register for the Invision boards.

[ocnblu]

ORLY?

[Satty]

Orally?

[Guest YellowJacket894]

What about 68Panther and FlyBrain?

[Satty]

I will neither confirm nor deny that those accounts have been registered by me.

[ocnblu]

I say we let Satty go. It takes the fun out of it if we know fer sher who's spoofing ppl.

[Satty]

I also have an account over at www.thegmsource.com and it shouldn't be too hard to figure out what it is.

[Guest YellowJacket894]

Alright. But, damn, it knocks me for a loop to see a spoof.

As you were, Satty.

[ocnblu]

Let me guess, you alone amount to 90% of membership over there with aliases...

[Satty]

I only have one membership over there, but it probably is 90% of their total registrations.

[Guest YellowJacket894]

[FAPTurbo]

If Satty put all his aliases on a post by post basis, I'm sure we'd be giving Charger4u's Word Association a run for its money.

[YellowJacket498]

Hmm. this does get intresting

[capriceman]

saw a MG V8 today along with a 60's Mustang club. And some kid in a pimped out Cavy tried to race a 69 Mach 1. The kid didnt learn his lesson there and then tried to race a Boss 427 i think.

[Northstar]

Saw a new 3er coupe today, looked pretty good, except that I didn't like the rear much.

Also saw a black Aura XR on the dealer lot, with a sold sign in it. It looked GREAT. They also had a white XE that looked excellent as well. They seem to be flying off the lot, as they had multipul Aura's the last time I was there (a week), and now they are only going to have that white XE.

[bobo]

Yesterday I saw a Hyundai Atos on Highway 99 south of Bakersfield. It was a short, narrow, but tall car. Must have driven up from Mexico.

[ocnblu]

Is it rolling over in that shot?

Did it sputter up the Grapevine? LOL.

I saw something worth contributing. On Labor Day morning, I was driving from Vancouver to Portland to get my bags at Mom's and catch my flight.

I saw an impeccably maintained 1975 Grand Ville convertible with the top down (no rain). I could spot that neat grille. It was black. It was going the other way or I would have fumbled for my digital.

Then, it occurred to me: I saw the Grand Ville on Granville! Captnbooyah, where are you? This is one of the main north-south thoroughfares in Vancouver BC.

[mrmonte]

New GT 500 Convert at my local ford dealer this morning which also just became a Saleen dealer as well.

[Robert Hall]

I saw a Ford Mondeo, Ford Lobo (F-series), a Chevy Sonora (Tahoe), Chevy Vectra, Chevy Chevy (Opel Corsa) all in Phoenix this past weekend...all Mexico-plated.

[Variance]

Bentley Flying Spur

Datsun 310EX

New Escalade ESV

[AAS]

Lots of SS Cobalts and Malibus and a TB SS in the Northern New Mexico/ Southern Colorado area.

[ocnblu]

Black '73 Riv tintop in excellent shape, gliding down a tree-lined residential street. Turned my head for sure.

[razoredge]

Well having gone to the historic races at Limerock this weekend, I have to say, your all boring me...............

I saw stuff I have no idea what the heck they were. I mean I found out what they were and already forgot the odd names. Lots of old prewar machines there this year, very very good in that respect.

Ford Amilcar

Bugattis

some thing I forget name off with a huge WWI aircraft V8, everything exposed, rockers, sleeves, pushrods, ect. kinda cool

the Miller Special if thats what its actually called

36 Ford Old Grey Mare

32 Plymouth Sprinter

38 Ford Sprint

3 wheel Morgans, very fast BTW kept up with two of the big boys for a third

great rare sheetmetal in the show area Ive seen for the first time was

Alfa Romeo Montreal

Fiat Dino

65 Jaguar 3.8 Sedan..........took best in show

Diablo.........in the parking lot beside our G6 when we left

Aston Martin DB2 52

54 Jaguar Xk120 M

Allards

75 BMW 3.5 CSL

Abarth 207A Biona

others slipping my mind

Great sheet metal Ive seen before at this show

250 GTO

250 Tour De France parked beside a

chopped ?47 Caddy......I have some very priceless photos of these two side by side

various Lolas, Lotus, Listers, Jags, Ferraris

late 50's Alfa Romeo Giulieta/Veloce my favorite of this type of roadster

some really cool Chevrons

various Porsche, including one 79 935 track car - very hot - did practice but didnt race ?

Ferrari Dino

DB4, DB5

M1

and 27 66-70 Trans Am cars, which we've all seen plenty of but seeing them have a go on the track was most excellent.

Some of the people dont really race, lack of skills, scared, priceless car but in every class there is a handfull that really go at it, sliding, locking brakes, from to much speed too late in the straight, inside passing, a few spinouts, a few wrecks, some serious downshifting and redlining, so many different types of motors, its a regular symphony

Te best racing was the pre war cars, when men were men and these guys are trying to be men, some serious sliding and lots of hand work. The Trans Am guys really went at it too, most all of them were serious.

This was our third year and the best yet. I get the photos loaded and up sometime.

[schuby87]

Even though it isn't new, I had to drive a 2005 Ford Falcon up to the autozone the other day. I got alot of wierd looks, prolly cuz it was right hand drive.

[pow]

I drove to UCLA today (Saturday) and went through the surrounding cities near the 405, and hence...

[Northstar]

I saw a brand-new (still had temp plates) Aston Vantage today. Sweeeet.

[ocnblu]

'07 Wrangler Unlimited X (4 door) at the dealership. Gray with black hardtop. "Butch" was dripping off of it in great gobs of goo. Even with the (relatively, they're still 255/17s) smaller tires than the Rubicon, this thing just looks ready. I like it.

[ocnblu]

'07 Cobalt SS/SC on the lot in that new Red Jewel Tintcoat color with Performance Package, sunroof, and polished rims. It was the sweetest Cobalt I've ever seen, and I'm serious. I'm not even a red person, but that color really makes the car.
