Awesome pics Clint! I was definitely very happy that you coul dmake the trip down! The Speed3 really did well and I am uber happy that you were able to make it home on the wannabe slicks :) I really hope you can make it next year!

Killboy has some really kickass pictures of everyone and I am uber surprised how well the shoot and group dragon pictures turned out! I really like #9140 of Dmitri and I on the group cruise, but maybe I'm biased a bit :)

Heard a lot about your car, dammit that I never got to check it out in person!




I hope you heard good things! But next year you should go for a ride in it

Man, this year was such a blast! I'm so glad so many people showed up.

This is the first time I've really had a chance to check this thread since I got back to MD last night.

My thanks and shout outs are going to be piece-meal since I'm at work, but here goes...

Stephen (MorningZ) - No thanks are required for using any of my tools and/or time as I would not be at the level of knowledge and expertise that I am today without this site. Hats off to you, sir! Next year, we'll definitely have to hang out a little bit more (perhaps a slightly longer Dragon run trip). And there will be massive amounts of alcohol consumed when Lauren and I come down in December! drinks on us!

Coolhand, Sean, & Zach - I'm glad we all got the keys and the housing situation squared away. I got a bit worried when I forgot to call you guys before I left MD. It was a fun time and next time, I'm definitely cooking on site instead of eating at teh Bistro or the Grille. Ribeyes, curry, and burgers FTW! Also, nice find on the R! And Zach, lemme know about your internship interests. I can definitely look into NG for you...

Keith & Ash - Sorry we didn't get to talk much, but our cars spent some time together on the Dragon and/or the skyway. Damn, that thing's fast. I was at peak power and still couldn't keep up even when your foot slipped off the throttle! Also, thanks for taking the pictures which I know will turn out so well!

Peyton - Good times as always. You really do know how to throw that car around as I had trouble keeping up with you on my track beast... Can't wait to see what happens when you do decide "stock is not better..."

Trish & David & the TX crew - I'm glad you guys made it out OK and the tornadoes didn't tear you guys up. Perhaps one of these days I'll get to see what an ITR trans feels like on an LS...

Mike (shoreteg) - It's always good to see you come out. Your car's awesome and you're personality and comedic relief are even better! We'll have to organize another northeast meet!

Malhon - It was so awesome to meet you in person. I'm so glad that there are people like you at these meets that make them so special. We'll have to sit down and talk tuning some time as I, too, will *hopefully* be boosting soon.

Nate & Ant - Man, you guys deserve more credit than I do. You did a lot of the hard work on the trans job, so pat yourselves on the back. As for the fluids and the clutch, just bring some Kronenbourg to the next event and we'll call it even.

SniperJoe & Amanda - Thank you so much for the cupcakes. They are so what I needed after drinking. i don't care what anybody says! Have fun with the new car and hopefully, the integra will make it out to the dragon again, in some way, shape, or form.

Knavekid - I know we didn't get to talk much, but the event wouldn't be the same without you. Perhaps next time we'll have a bit more time to catch up.

CJ and the GA teg crew - It was great to see you guys again. I'm sorry I had no idea you were even there until the party saturday night, but it was awesome when you came down to the parking lot to hang out during the trans job.

Josh (97JDMTeg) - It was good to see you again after so long. I'm glad your car is coming together and that you were able and willing to help out another member by selling those parts for which you had waited for so long.

Tony - Always a good time, man. I really think Jerry has a thing for you.

I know I haven't gotten to everybody yet, but I've got to actually do some work!!

Thanks to all for a great vacation and I'm looking forward to next year already!

I don't have a whole lot to say except that it was awesome seeing everyone again. I tried to stay out of the way most of the time being that I wasn't quite "representing", but I had a fun time regardless. I was a lot of fun partying with everyone on Saturday night.

Greg, if you were serious, get into contact with me an we can talk.

Buy my 450HP Integra!!!!

LOL you mean if my gf is serious, which she is, but I unfortionitly dont think she wouldnt be able to get a loan for it. If something works out though ill get in contact with you, if not for anything but to hush her up lol.

It was great meeting everyone, Im not going to make a post with name by name comments because im still tired and now getting sick, but it was great meeting people from chat and putting names to faces.

I will mention one name and thats Steves, thanks once again for putting on a seriously Bad ass meet! it was awsome as always and deffintly worth the drive!

Oh ok, one more name, mike (afromanshoreteg something), Thank you for getting my GF addicted to boost, not only did she whimper everytime your blow off valve go off on the way out untill she got back in the car, but she never shut up the entire trip about boost lol.

Good job turning a diesel/Z71/4x4 type truck girl into a teg and boost head lol.


ILxintegra: I thought Trish was, like 28?

ILxintegra: Wait, I'm sorry Greg, its David who's 28

LOL Wrong both times!!!

Boost is addicting isn't it Greg :) Brent who came with us in the MR DC5 took my car on a run and was definitely addicted by the end of the first turn :) All he kept saying is damn this is a badass little car and giggled like a little girl repeatedly...

One thing I forgot to add.

I've seen people post they didn't want to bother since they had an atomatic tranny. Don't worry about it. THat's what I've got and it's still a blast. Coming back from the dragon I was behind a GSR, R and another car that I'm not sure what was done to it but it was fast. (Green w/straight pipe?)

Yeah they'll pull away at parts but it's so curvy there's not really much room for them to get away and as soon as they start to traffic will hold them up. Short vid below shows they don't get much chance to get away from me.




Also at another point I had a civic behind me that was made up as a CTR replica that I'm sure would've been faster then me. We were on hwy 28 and I was walking away from him. It's all in how fast/hard you want to push and you'll be able to find other people going the same speed as you no matter what.

lol.. that car is Josh's (dbkid)....

it's a little loud


Scary moment with my car and his car... we were on our way back and sitting in Murphy at a red light in the rain on a hill and his car starting sliding backwards towards mine.....

When i first noticed it i was like "wtf? am i moving forward and don't realize it?", then noticed what was really going on and laid on the horn and he was able to engage and move forward just before his car slid into mine.... :: whew ::

Thanks for changing your plans to meet up with us Fri morning. Funny how you drove right by us when turning left on 19.... Matt, sorry I didn't get time to look at your third brake light....   Dustin: hope the fact that the rear license plate frame is "used" doesn't mean it won't make it onto the car :-)




I can't thank you enough Steve. And the first thing I did when I got home was put that frame on lol. It definitely has a huge sentimental value to me as this was my first Dragon Run and the first with TI. Not to mention meeting some awesome people who all share the same interest as me.

I'll keep that plate as long as I am alive lol. Even if I don't own a teg one day, you can bet it will be on that car haha.

Thanks again for everything and all you do for the site.

Yeah, just a tad loud. lmao. I'm going to try to obtain an SMSP header and fit a 2.5" Carsound cat in there to see how the sound changes. But, I have three exhausts right now, to chose from. :-)
Yeah, Z, that situation gave me a heart attack. Maybe my teg needs a bigger contact patch. ;-) Scared the hell out of me, anyway.
