Visiting Fairfax VA
 
I'm in the Fairfax area for the week and am not terribly familiar with the area. I know there are a few members from the area, any advice on things to do or good places to eat in the evenings? Thanks.

Oh shitttttttttttt when!?

shooterschmidty 09-12-2011 07:28 PM

Glad to see that Fairfax keeps it real. And to think I thought Denver was hardcore with it's farmer's markets and wholefoods on every corner.

Brain, I'm actually in town now and fly back out Friday morning.

I love going here when I visit family in VA. Not to close to you but it is beautiful. Last time I was there I went trail running with a friend of mine.

Faeflora 09-12-2011 08:19 PM

In so I can say I am coming to the meetup and then it will rain and I will not come.

shooterschmidty 09-12-2011 10:32 PM

Yea. Medium on the shirt if you have it. How much are they so I can bring some cash?

Braineack 09-15-2011 02:47 PM

you can buy me a beer or something.

ScottFW 09-15-2011 03:11 PM

I just signed up for the BMW club autox this Saturday. Between this event and the MSCW one on Oct 1st I will have my two timed events so I can buy shit through my Mazda comp account again. It's at Dominion Speedway in Man-asses, you NoVA peeps should sign up. Online registration closes tonight. The afternoon session didn't look very full, potential for lots of runs.

See y'all tonight.

Braineack 09-15-2011 03:15 PM

but are you turboed yet?

Braineack 09-15-2011 03:18 PM

Nope. I wanted to get my mazda comp account squared away with a couple events before I yank the motor, that way I can buy WP/TB/gaskets/seals/bearings for the motor build at reasonable prices. Motor can get yanked anytime after Oct 1. In the mean time I got the VTCS shit removed from the 01 intake, filled the holes with quicksteel, ported the runners. Now I need to find someone local with an AC capable TIG machine to weld some bungs onto the 01 oil pan, y'all know anyone in the area who will do this for a reasonable fee?

shuiend 09-15-2011 03:50 PM

I am going to ban you all while you are at dinner, since I am a jealous bitch and can not be there.
