    Charlotte Meet Pic thread.

    Before I get on with the pictures I am just going to run through a little timeline of what happened.

    Saturday, May 26:
    Everyone arrived, we BSed for a while.
    Went to my house, unloaded the parts Nic was selling me. Everybody jumps in 2 cars and we ride to meet Jody (wagalude), who sold Keith (Hondatuner4267) and Nic (90cb7sleeper) 2 sets of sawblades. They each got a set.
    Back to my house, we ate and went to Speed Street which is a festival with free concerts on the race weekend here. We were talking with Xavier (90_cb7) who has lowering springs, but doesn't have them on. We were like, we can have these on in an hour no problem. So he decided he was going to go home (1 hr away) and come back in the morning with the springs.

    Sunday, May 27:
    Wake up, BS some more.
    Xavier gets here at like 11. Start on the springs. One of the struts got jacked up and was blown so he got a new one at NAPA. Finished that and everybody headed to the junkyard because I told Nic there were like 3 CB7s with 5 speeds and pretty much all the 5 speed parts. We go. We (mostly Nic, with me helping out some) Yank a tranny and pretty much every 5 speed part he needs. Xavier got a black '93 trunklid off a 10AE. I got a window regulator because one of mine is broken. Anyways we had all of Nic's 5 speed parts and my window regulator in 1 wheel barrel and walk up to the checkout. Nic was expecting a bill of $200+. He walked out paying $85 for all of it. I think Xavier got the deck lid for under $30.

    Now, pictures. Sorry, none from Saturday.

          We lost Keith. He was driving his mom's 7th gen auto. He could not keep up. So we waited at a gas station and took pics.

            I do not condone that pose, because getting off can cause cracking of windshields.

                    Pull A Part on North Tryon in Charlotte.

                    Really they should have been like $200 or so if they would have gone through every part and entered all the prices.
