We risked the chance of rain to make it out to the 4th iteration of Slurp and Speed, back after a hiatus in April, and while I know we missed some folks who left before we could get there, it was still a great turn out. Each time we make it to this meet I talk about how great the food is, and this visit … Continue reading Slurp & Speed 4
So let’s just be super transparent here for the sake of this post. 1- we went to this meet for the cars, and to see all the folks we know at Koru and friends that we’ve known for ages and 2- despite being a woman, I know NOTHING about fashion except a few designer’s names and those red bottomed shoes. To say this was a … Continue reading Koru x Antidote
This was our first time at a Pints and Pistons meet, and we picked a good one to start off with. This meet brought out a lot of fun builds, including two manual swapped Mercedes, lots of BMWs, an Evo 5 and a VR4 Galant. Presented by Traction Insurance (if you’re not familiar, http://www.tractionins.com), there was a trophy for best of both JDM and DTM … Continue reading Pints and Pistons JDM vs DTM
Hill and the L&L crew let ABR take over the back lot and crash their party at the brewery, and there seemed to be a good appreciation from both groups for the intermingling and variety of things to look at. I say it every time we cover one of these meets, but you sincerely will not find a more welcoming group of off-roaders or overlanders … Continue reading Lifts and Lagers 4-13-2025
If you’ve paid attention to the local scene as a Skyline enthusiast, you’ve likely seen the name Speedgate. While they aren’t just for Skylines or Nissan or even just the broad banner of import, they have a reputation brewing in those communities. While Speedgate hosts many events under their own banner ranging from the group drives to the Skyline Invitational, this event is branded separately … Continue reading Locals and Legends 4/3/2025
I typically don’t love single make meets, much less single model, but at least the Miata folks bring a wide variety of builds and you’ll never meet a friendlier bunch of folks. As a few of them say, it’s hard to take yourself too seriously in a car that is so unserious, and that translates well to these meets. Miatas of all generations and build … Continue reading Marietta Monday Miatas at MamiTaco
Okay okay okay. I know. Chattanooga isn’t Atlanta, but given how wide the Metro Atlanta area is, it’s not far and a lot of Atlanta folks and shops were there. So. We’re counting it. Plus I love Chattanooga, so a reason to visit is always welcome. I have been seeing people share Riverside coverage for years, gushing over how much of a great time it … Continue reading Riverside 10
This meet is relatively quiet and while it has been happening for a over a year now, I only recently learned there was a weekly meet closer to my home than a lot of the meets that happen on the east side of the city. We were able to squeeze in a visit this week on 3 19 and meet some new friends, see some … Continue reading Wicked Wednesday Weekly Meet
Y’all. What an event. I remember meeting Joseph way way way back in the day on an old forum (down and out ) that no longer exists, and if my memory is correct (which is a big if), that forum became part of SouthrnFresh. He’s put in so much incredible work building it into something so much more than just a forum where a bunch … Continue reading SouthrnFresh 12
I had every intention of alternating between Caffeine and Octane and Worship for the first Sunday meet each month, but something told me to make it to Worship and I’m glad I did. The weather was decently warm and people came out in numbers bringing with them a wide array of eye candy. Each month it seems like there’s more and more to look at … Continue reading Worship March 2025
