Damn, DHL in Brazil is fucking shit.

I have received packages from DHL Express from the US before and it came like the next day.

How many of you old long time RS'ers actually know each other IRL?
I've been on here forever but I don't think I've actually met anyone.

68style 07-06-2022 07:11 AM

I know the original founders, but probably only talk to about 10 in total nowadays... not many current posters just a couple.

Hondaracer 07-06-2022 07:20 AM

In the entire time I’ve been around probably have only met 3-4 people outside my in person friends I knew before.

Back in the day there was a lot more corporate promotion from business where I met Fukamoto and some other people

sonick 07-06-2022 07:24 AM

I've stared at 320icar from afar at Costco before :ohgodwhy:

68style 07-06-2022 07:44 AM

IRL I know Great68 and 320icar... bcrdukes... a few other guys. I feel like I should have met westopher already but haven't haha... would like to meet mike, hondaracer, underscore and traum one day.

I met skinnypupp once outside a Blockbuster video in the early 2000's before he ever moved to HK!

bcrdukes 07-06-2022 07:46 AM

I've met a lot of people on RS and some of whom I've been friends with for almost 20 years. I'd even go as far as to consider some of them as my best friends. You guys know who you are. :hotbaby:

Same. Back when all the meets and cruises used to happen in its heyday, was still driving and sharing the moms corolla so never made it out:badpokerface:

I think this is where people just need to get out to meets regardless of what they drive.

El Bastardo and I used to host stock and noob meets to welcome those who had pedestrian cars like their parents' Corolla or were completely new to RS and wanted to check out the scene.

In my opinion, they were very successful and a few group of people made a new set of friends. There were no burnouts, no fights, no tickets, and RCMP officers even attended to show their support and to promote a safe environment (This was just down the street from the RCMP office near Ironwood Plaza.)

All in all, those were good times. Leave the online personas and egos at home. Get out, socialize, meet people, and enjoy.

punkwax 07-06-2022 08:57 AM

I’ve met Shoei and Hondaracer.. helped another RS’er get a job but have never met him :lol

Hondaracer 07-06-2022 09:01 AM

Yea forgot about that lol, speakers still killing it lol

68style 07-06-2022 09:26 AM

Did he sell them to you out of the back of a van in a mall parking lot?? hahaha

Hondaracer 07-06-2022 09:34 AM

The boxes were fairly non-descript but the story he wove about them was seemingly convincing enough! Lol jk

SSM_DC5 07-06-2022 12:26 PM

Met lots of RS members through buy/sell, requests for a helping hand, and meAts. Less than a handful of those people still post. Probably be able to put names/usernames to faces/cars if I knew who to look out for at the next track day.

I went to a few of those, most of the boob meat ppl are no longer on here though.

Great68 07-06-2022 12:44 PM

I think I went to one RS meet with the Mustang when they were at spanish banks back in the day.

If anyone finds themselves on my side of the pond, open invitation to stop by for a beer!

BIC_BAWS 07-06-2022 01:42 PM

In no particular order, I've met Westopher, TheProducer, 320icar, RoverT, Simplex123, The AK, 325ismsport, Gerbs, LP-700-4, Matsuda, coneZone, Chinese Driver, Anjewree, kunoman1, Skunkworks, Acethriller, AstulzerRZD, double0seven, InsanE, SwonZ, jpark, Traum, J.C., Tofu, Snowfarmer, pb_e46, jackp0t, MaceWindu, Fafine, Kalson and David ofc.

Pretty sure I bumped into 68style one time but he was probably just another white guy standing next to 320icar LOL. Most definitely spotted each other on Alderbridge once tho.

I think I've met Aznboi but I don't remember LOL. There was also a guy with a 2000s beige corolla that I met and used to post on here a lot. And the kim jong un looking guy with the Volvo who unfortunately doesn't post anymore.

There's probably a bunch more ppl who used to post that i've met in someway or another but aint nobody like hey are you bicbaws on RS. Tho, I've had that happen to me at BMW meet before.

Still haven't met badhobz sadge.

sonick 07-06-2022 01:44 PM

Oh yeah, remembered I've also creeped The Situation from afar at Sport Central :ohgodwhy:

And many moons ago chased down TypeRNammer in his Del Sol on the street outside of Silvercity Richmond, after I was at the bar next to the bowling alley.

Liquid_o2 07-06-2022 01:48 PM

I think I have only met RiceIntegraRS. Back in 2005 he helped me lower my Teg on some shitty no name springs I bought. I think we went to Red Robin after for lunch for some unlimited fries :fuckyea:

Badhobz 07-06-2022 01:52 PM

i havent really met anyone either. Ive been on and off the forums since high school (early 2000s) but lost the original username. Would be nice to put some faces to names

BIC_BAWS 07-06-2022 01:53 PM

hobz when are we getting dimsum and trading cars

Badhobz 07-06-2022 02:13 PM

OH you mean trade camry for type R !?!? YES PLZ

When i get my friggin car back from the wrapping guy, we gotta go hit up some dim sum. Y'all welcome to join.

underscore 07-06-2022 03:35 PM

I think the last time I was down for a meet was the spring meet in 2011, when I also checked out a couple of GTFour RCs including the one I ended up buying a little while later. I don't think I've actually met any of you but I've seen 320icars RS parked at the spectator area at PFR and BWR as few years ago lol.

EvoFire 07-06-2022 03:38 PM

So are we going to have an old men meet?

AzNightmare 07-06-2022 07:36 PM

I need to buy light bulbs... I know they slap on some environmental fee.
But is it based on per package item or per bulb regardless?

Asking, so that I can budget whether it's cheaper to buy box of 20 or 10 boxes of 2. (They're on sale).
