January 8th Wrap Up

David, the thread you requested me to post in is locked... Hopefully you can just copy and paste this instead.

Anyways, today's meeting started under dark pretenses. Johnny Boy was apparently leaving Rambunkshush. David was stepping down as club head. Patrick was being all nyuh, I'm eating with other people. All things considered, an event to be feared. Things didn't pick up much with the attendance of Fieros as of 5:45, with only two present. Eventually more members, and eventually a couple Fieros trickled in.

Perhaps one of the highlight moments, if not the most interesting point of the every meeting this year (Hehe) was that a particular member was in attendance: NIGEL!!! (Sorry to get your hopes up, Marcel). Yes, thanks to the good doctor, and the power of the interwebz, Nigel was chatting to the group through the Doctor's phone, and it's webcam.

Cautiously optimistic, Marcel, Clynt and I proceded to grill Johnny Boy, who conceded he wants to drastically re-style RBS, and shed some pounds (While moving other pounds to more beneficial locations).

With those two bombshells out of the way, we moved inside the club, where Marcel, Clynt and I continued to fear any alterations to the perfection that is RBS. After a little bit of time, we moved on to door prizes, and on his first meeting back in a while, guess who managed to steal a door prize? Yes, for those of you who want/need a reason to hate Marcel, his win-streak continues on. It was just after this that Ken showed up as well.

Once the meeting picked up, we inevitably moved towards club runs and roughly setting times (Typically just the month). What has been verified thus far is: Tech session in April, Tech session in May, possibly a Cinco de Mayo run in May (Duh), Hell's Gate run in May, Possibly a movie/drive-in during June, possibly Duffy Lake in June, I believe Arlington in July, All Pontiac in September, Tech session in October, I believe Chilliwack in November, a Christmas party in December at Fireside, something in January, and a Chocolate Run in February (So grab your Valentine's Gift's, thanks for the idea Michelle!). Other suggestions thrown about involved a year-early end-of-the-world-party, amongst other things. Emily also agreed to come to the Harrison Hot Springs run to go swimming. Ahead of time, I call dibs for her in my car.

The next topic of discussion was a more sombre affair, as David spoke of stepping down as club head. Luckily, that disaster was averted thanks to some club members offering constructive alternatives. It was finally agreed upon that the solution was not David utterly stepping down, but having other members step up to ease the work-load. While I only thought to add meeting reminders to my list, I'd like to thank for taking on club sign-up and meeting set-up, Damien for taking on event co-ordination and the two of them offering to do the speaking when needed, with me being a last resort. Colby was also designated our club "Autocross Go-To Guy".

The club finally finished with a discussion on perhaps doing a club drag-race out at Mission some time, although nothing was particularly solidified.

It was at this point that I continued on to flirting with the adorable Emily, until the last of us had left, in which point the Bergquist's and I decided it was a good time to call it a night as well. The last moment of the meeting may or may not have involved David spinning or not spinning his tires while leaving or not leaving the parking lot. 

Richmond TBC doesn't take outsiders, they have maintained/specced ones to keep things fair.

I blew my go-kart up. It was fun. lol

One I still want to make is one with the motor and transmission from a BMW S1000RR. It would be amazing.
