any one in or near the central valley that wants to organize a gtg? i am all alone in the focus world and would like to meet up with some people with first hand knowledge of our cars to trade favors and talk mods. i am a new tuner and need help/pointers in the relm of mods\, and most of the write ups are over my head.

I live in Kingsburg. Whats yourPhone number?

Right now I am in Fresno. It doesn't get more Central Valley than that. I don't have a lot of time and pretty much no money, but if you got any ideas/places, I would think about it. Email me.

Oct 3rd twist n puke, meet in Goshen with about 20 orso other foci and go play in the red woods.

I have been reading about. I was up til almost one researching and what not. I think I am gonna make it. It is about 20 or so miles south of me I think.

slow down, what is a "twist and puke" and what are we doing in the redwoods? oct 3rd, i just might have to meet these 20ish foci. please explain

focuzzn. you did not reply to my pm. trying to get together. oct 3rd would be cool if i can make it. i need help with mods and such, so hopefully i can make some connections.

Stop yelling at me [bigcry] lol it seems like everytime I mention one, you mention the 6th. I have to give you your props. You are definately letting every focus owner west of the mississippi (and some to the east) know about this event. This is gonna be huge

mt hailton sounds good, but a lil too far off to nail down for sure. frush i will pm you some questions instead of being all over these threads

twist n puke!!! sounds fun. aprox how many miles from start to finish from fresno? and 8:30 in the lot by the starbucks? i will see what i can do. where are we going? to what park and down whitch road? all day?

well guys, sorry to say, i am out. it was a go for the twist and puke and the bbq in stocton on the 9th, but my gf's dad passed away today, so tomarrow(t&p) is out, and the mamorial is on sat(bbq)9th. life happens. now i will have to wait to meet all of you at the mt hamilton run, unless there is another g2g between now and then. a small scale something or other. who knows. sorry guys, later

damn, wish i could go, but that's a little too far than i can manage right now. im over in porterville *in between visalia and bakersfield in case u havent heard of it before*. talk about bein alone, there arent any other SVT Foci in town! there are a few svt cobras and svt lightnings, but no foci. sheesh....domestic stuck in an import town..... lol; holla at me!!!
XfocusX; sorry to hear that. i give yer family my regards and best wishes.

machewcoy...what do you mean too far?? Roll up with xfocusx and his krew. He is from clovis, there may be some people from fresno and some from south of there. Kaminari croc drove up for twist-n-puke from orange county. He is crazy but super glad he made it. He said he drove 200 there and back, then another two hundred something for his friend in SD. He put quite the miles on his car that day (or two). No...realistically, I understand. I would have troubles driving that far too. Take it easy.

hrm, well; i'll try and make it. but, bein stuck in college and all, i am committed to my studies. eh, maybe i can let all that slide for this one time........[idea]

Hey...College is my number 2 priority (the lady friend is number 1) but I work my tail off to get my work done before the weekend. Come out for a day of cruisin

soa re you in machewcoy? where in the jumbo state of cali are you from?

Yeah...what college do you go to??

from porterville. right now, i'm goin to the community college here. hehehe, any of u guys heard of it? probably not.... heh, heck ya, i'm in. i'm tryin to get all my stuff done right now and i'm workin ahead with my teachers so i'll be free like the whole week, hahahaha. hmm...i'll see if my girl-person would want to come along too. hehehehe.

Yeah...bring the pretty ones. Even more eye candy than the cars. lol. Can't say I have heard of the community college there. Are you gonna go to the Merced Sonic gtg either tomorrow or the 29th?? If so, I may see you on the 29th. Can't make it tommorrow. Well take it easy.

ooo; is there somfin tommara and 29th? hmm......merced sonic gtg, eh? i'll jus have to wait and see.........*opens up map quest*

I am pretty sure there is going to be a g2g on the 29th...Tonight may be iffy. Check out FJ, there are a couple of central cal people contemplating one for tonight. Maybe Merced, Maybe Fresno, Maybe they will just wait until the 29th. Just read up on the FJ NorCal forum.

where in the NO is the meet tonight? i am sssssooooo in!!! ya, prob wont happen though. Mt hami will have to do

There will be a Merced Sonic g2g Friday the 29th at 7 pm, then the Mt Hami run on the 6th. Sounds like a plan...se ya'll there.

oct 29-----------nov6.
--------- = long time, with no meet!

yeah a whole 8 days.

my bad. in my head we are still in sept. weeeew. any-who. in which case 8days is not bad at all. but sept29--nov6 IS A LONG TIME WITHOUT A MEET. GOOD THING THERE IS THE ONE ON oct29!
WOW I AM OUT OF IT.

hey brads03zx3 you go to CSUF? Go Titans, sorry had to chime in, i graduated from there in 2002. I noticed a few others who go there who go on this board as well. Cheyne i think his name was.

Sorry to burst any bubbles...I was lazy. I go to CSU Fresno. Go bulldogs lol

as do i, go bulldogs. csufresno!!

cool; most of my buds are goin to csuF. either that, or ucla, or notre dame, arts institutes, or nec (new england conservatory of music). dang, how'd i get stuck with porterville junior college? GO PIRATES!!! WOOT!!!! AAAHAHAHAHA[headbang]

It was free for me, so that is why I am here. I plan on being in school for a while, so the less debt the better.

eh; tight. free college is always a good thing. too bad they wont let me use my scholarship money until my first semester is over. kinda defies the whole point, dont it? [:)~]

It's cool that you have scholarships though. Good luck.

ay brad. have you seen the twighlight blue hatch with the evoIII front end at fresno state yet. i wonder who it belongs to. i want to put a note on it to get on here and meet people or get into the mt hami run. we need more velley support. that is the only other modded focus i have seen on campus. what does yours look like. i know it is sangria, and i saw the pic on the side of a cliff, but are you lowered? or completely stock? i do not think i have seen your car. mine is twighlight blue, a sedan. lowere 1.5 and rollin on seanhyland 17's. with the shiney magnaflow in the rear. keep a look out

I haven't seen that focus probably because I don't park near there. There are like 25,000 students at this school, so I figure there are close to that number of cars. I am pretty much stock besides the intake, grounding kit, and now the lower mount.

i know there are a ton of cars, and multiple lots, just seein if you had spotted it. i have seen it a few times now. i try to keep my eyes open looking for other foci arround town, not too many that i have seen medded.

I saw a midnight blue SVT over by Hooters a while back, but other than that just a lot of rice burners

i put a note on the ugly evo front ended focus. told him to come here and register. he has some projectors, and a radar detector also as foar as visible mods. i would hope he has somethin under the hood to need a detector, who knows though, could just be a decoration...

I guess if you wanted him to register, you shouldn't say that his car is ugly. LOL

good point, but he is a zx3, and i am a sedan, he will be hangin out with you guys more, and i am sure he will hear it anyway. focus friends dont let focus friends look stupid. maybe he will get slapped with some common sense, and either finish the car(kit) or remove that bumper!! anywho, hope he/she joins up and hangs out!

Are you XfocusXedgeX or something over on FJ?? I wasn't sure...actually I just confirmed with your 2k1 tw....You will find some good info and good people over there. Sometimes FF tends to be a bit slow sometimes. There are always people posting on FJ. Don't yell at me and say FF is better blah blah blah. I am in no way baggin on FF. I like em both and use both. Anyways, Are you going to the Merced Sonic meet on Friday?? There are going to be a bunch of FJ peeps there. Take care.

pretty sure i will be there, trying hard, dont think it should be a prob. if this rain will stop so i can wash her up a bit. i would hate to make my first meeting all muddy!
yes that is me, i finally broke down. the name is diff over there, because it said there was already a xfocusx? i dunno, someone is a rip-off! o well,
late

Yeah I know. I wanted to clean my car this weekend too, but figured it would be a wasted effort. Let me know when you are gonna clean her up. If you don't mind, maybe we could have a cool-person-only pre-g2g clean-off. That sounds so lame. Anyways, I can't go home before sonic and my car is filthy. Do you realize that we are like the only people posting here?

hah; dont forget about me! even though i dont really post, i check this thread everyday. i'm kinda in a bad situation right now cause of recent family events with my parents and wat not. i hate divorces, ya know? friggin parents, ya, i'm only 18, but still, it's really hard on my and my bro. looks like i wont be goin ANYWHERE for a while. well; just keep me posted about any g2g that are close enough by to where i can just drive there and come back in a day. hahaha

It is somewhat of a drive for you, but there is a G2G in Merced on Friday night at 7pm. Luckily I have not had to go through the Big D. Sorry bout that. Both my parents did, my gf did, and many of my friends. I consider myself lucky. You'll make it through. Good luck dude.

thanx man. i appreciate it. hmm...merced...yeah, dang...that's a big drive. well; i'll still see if i can make it. maybe i'll pull some sort of excuse outta my butt or somfin. i could use time to chill with fellow foci owners.

I am in Fresno, so I am sure you could roll that half with me. I am going to see if other Fresno peepss want to go up together.

ah; that's tight. yeah, i'd bring some other foci peeps from pville, but i dont know em at all, and i've only seen like one other SVTF, but i think some old lady drives it? hahaha

ya come to us, and we will roll toget her.
brad, the evo is online now. he signed up! nemo1 i think, keep an eye out.
is pville=porterville?
so the only central valley are brad, and me from fresno/clovis and you from pville? wow, what a drag. hopefully this evo kid comes through, so we can mob 4 deep!
i will prob wash on thurs, but if it keeps lookin like rain, i might roll through red carpet so ican get the three day rain gaurntee, so if it does rain, or if i get filthy from the drive, i can get re-cleaned. ya know.
late

There is more than two people in the fresno/clovis area. Keep an eye on FJ. The NorCal forum has a bunch of peeps. Apparently there is a chick on FJ that drives her bf zx3. I think she said it had an evo hood. I will keep an eye out for nemo1. Yes, he is from porterville. How far from the campus are you?? It looked like it was sprinkling this morning. Take it easy.

maassive downpour all day. there goes washing today, and just add more mud on the paint, it is startin to look like a pretty cool brown vinal graphic on the side of my beast. there is also a chick on fj theat drives a stock black zx3 with floral seats and a sticker of somethin on the back. i have seen that one arround. i will look for the evo ooded bf moble.
i live out in clovis, prob 15 min from school

Yeah...I think that is zx3_gurl if I am not mistaken. The chick that drives her bf's car goes to city I think.

yeah; pvill = porterville. turns out there's a roush focus and a focus-sport focus around town, too. i've seen em a coupla times, and the focus-sport keeps doin a ricer fly-by on me. i cant figure out where that other svt is, though. it's drivin me nutso.

machewcoy...have you yet decided to come to Merced on Friday night??

naw, i cant make it friday, which really p's me off. i was planning on going until about a few hours ago when i found out that i have to tutor on friday. it bites, but i cant leave those kids just hanging like that. looks like i'm out until the next g2g. i'll post back asap if i find out that i dont have to tutor friday, though.

Yeah that sux

Xfocus...what is the plan for tomorrow?? When are you rollin out?

i amnot sure if i am now. rear window stuck in the down position. been tryin to fix, i have no idea. my car is garaged untill i fix it. i pulled it up and shredded my tint. grrrrr. but i can not get it to stay up. going to the dealership 2maro to see how bad i am gunna take it. if i can get it to stay up i will run up, but as of now, send my best, and no matter what i am at mt hami!!

Man...I missed ya. It was pretty fun. How did the window issue go? Glad to hear I will see you at Mt Hami.

ya, hami 4 sure. the guy at future ford said that they could look into it on tues. said it is prob the regulator and be ready to pay 200-250. damn!!! :( stupid power windows!!
how was the turn out? who was there? any super fly rides?

yeah, how was the turn out? sorry i couldnt make it. looks like i want be makin it to the hami for sure. total bummer.

turnout was good. I think there were like 10 foci...one turboed sedan (running like crap...sn Drabert) and one JRSC SVT with cf hood (looked sweet...sn getmazmon or something like that). There were a couple of other SVT and again, mine was as close to stock as it gets. I take that back, one lady from the local ford club had a completely stock sedan but I don't think that counts. Awesome people. Relaxing
