Who's my new friends, how does Hawaii work?

[MyIsland.US]

Who here is on what island. Im on Oahu (again in March) who are you and where you. Do you guys cross islands to meet up (is that possible?) or is the board the only way Hawaiin islanders speak?

Thanks!

[The Beastmaster]

I'm on Oahu. MauiM3Mania is of course on Maui along with bmwdirttrackracer. We meet up a couple times a year for Spring Fling and Aloha 500 as we're either officers in the local chapter, instructors, drivers, DECs or photographers. At these events, the Maui guys will usually fly in.

As for just shooting the shit, some of use Oahu guy set together for DIYs or picking up parts from each other.

greetings

i's waikele (oahu)

i have yet to attend a cch meeting :embarrasm

[MyIsland.US]

Ok so where is Waikele? I dont have a map in front of me. hehe So where you at thrls?
<p>
I think its very likely I will attend/create some get togethers as I am a big Hawaii newbe loser with no friends in HI. lol

[thrlls]

This is what makes Hawaii different. You already have friends, you just don't know it yet!
Loser? A loser is one that expects things to change, but refuses to change.
I'm at the other end of the island from where you are at. Near Sandy Beach, Blow Hole....(keep it clean guys) and Hanauma Bay. I'm on the east coast....he he

And wasn't your sign on a different name before B _ _ l? Or is that someone else that has the same sig, car, & hard top as you from LV?
DesmoBob lives closest to you.

[The Beastmaster]

Well, if you caught the freeway home, it will split and one will take you to Mililani and the North Shore, the other to Ko Olina. The area right after the split on your way home is Waikele/Waipahu. After that is Kapolei and then Ihilani/Ko Olina. You're probably 9 miles west from Desmo Bob.

[IslandS62]

I'm right in the middle! Near Pearl Harbor in the city with only vowels, Aiea.

[GcD]

I live in Waipahu, work in Waikele.

You mean Micro Fiber Towels....:D

[ZZZING]

Another Oahu member, I'm in Aina Haina, kinda near beastie and Thrlls. Autocross next Sunday at Hawaii Raceway park, pretty close to Ko Olina

[thrlls]

Now here is your competition!
ZZZING is quick in the turns, and his car is pretty much stock, well at least it was until this week. Not to mention his car is a Z3..non-M. He is quick, much quicker than I......hmmmmm does that mean I'm slow? :drunkani:

[The Beastmaster]

Just means you're old!

[ZZZING]

Hey, I'm older than Thrlls. His car is a beast without sticky tires, as well as an off road vehicle anyway.

[MyIsland.US]

Sounds cool I'll post here Im alive in HI when I get back, can't wait!
<p>
Yes I used to be 2001Mz3. That's me.

[Gene V]

I'm in Foster Village, close to Pearl Harbor and not far from Aloha Stadium...

[thrlls]

You tell them ZZZING!
I'm just a day over IslandS52!

[IslandS62]

your commute is what, like 2 minutes? :split:

[Gene V]

I'm 15 minutes from my carport to parking at work...just a tick under 7 minutes is my best, catching greens all the way...

[GcD]

Takes less than 15 minutes to get to work. :stickoutt I forgot what freeway traffic is like.

True :(

But not as long as ZZZING & Gene V's day! :)

[The Beastmaster]

I work out of my house. So out of bed and on the computer or phone. No need to comb my hair or brush my teeth.

Whats a freeway? :dunno

Scott :12:

[thrlls]

A freeway is a very large PARKING LOT!
Because the parking is "free" it's called a Freeway.

[MauiM3Mania]

Ah! Mahalo, Thrlls!

[Honolulu E38]

Sorry had to post and run, but I live on Punahou St.

Spring Fling- I have to check if I have Drill that day, but if not, Im in.

[MyIsland.US]

Ok Im here. Now what? hehe. I used horizon to ship the car. Not here for awhile yet. ;(

[MauiM3Mania]

Hey, did you guys read about the Super Ferry that is supposedly coming to the state?

Capacity; 900 ppl, 350 cars. (something like that)

Spring Fling, Aloha 500? Hell, us Maui boys can bring our rides!

In 2006. :eek:

Scott

[IslandS62]

Yeah, I'm waiting for this too!

I usually need to spend a week or so in Maui every Spring and it would sure be fun to bring one of the cars with me. :cool

[MauiM3Mania]

John,

Spring is soon, I think. Let us know when you're headed over and we can hook up.

Scott

[IslandS62]

I'll be up in Wailea from April 4th-9th for a Medical Conference. :et me know if you want to get together for dinner or a late lunch. Maybe I can finally get some prints from last years A500 :D

[MauiM3Mania]

We're five minutes from Wailea, so that works. In which resort will your conf take place/you staying while here?

We're covering a couple weddings at the Grand during your stay, but have plenty of free time otherwise.

I'll pull up the stuff from last year so that we can go over it all.

[thrlls]

Hey IslandS52 -
While you're at it, bring some prints back for me too!

Maui -
Let me know the cost for the prints. Someone stole my "wee Man" from my antenna :(
Now I need t go back to Zippy's and get another one.

[IslandS62]

I am going to be at Outrigger, just a stone's throw from the Grand. Its not the Four Seasons, but no complaints from me! I will probably buy a bunch from you, not only for personal use, but for use in posters and the newsletter over the course of the year (with your permission of course). If you feel that a few showcase your work especially well please pull them...and we will make sure you are credited whenever its used.

Wee man is from Zippys? Now I know where I can get another one!

[thrlls]

Yep! It will cost you a nickle!

[MauiM3Mania]

Thrlls, good prints can be made (and 'cheap' as I can) , all I'd ask is to lump it all together at one time. The numbered photos are still online, I think!

Shoot me an e-mail scott@hughesphoto.net

John, you'll be right down the street, and higher rent district than us. :95

Lets plan on it.

[onik]

I live on Date St close to Kapahulu Ave, and work in Kahala.. :D :cool: but originally from this isolated isle called Molokai.... ;)

[The Beastmaster]

Whoa! Where you been Oni?

FYI. Sam may be getting in a 96 328is with 39k on it. It's black w/ dove leather and it's automatic. My friend was supposed to talk to him this afternoon.

[thrlls]

Hey Oni!
I thought you moved back to Molokai, and threw out your computer!
Nice to you're still around. Did you ever get your 5 speed 328?
Will you be attending the Spring Fling?

[onik]

Beastmaster:
Ive been really busy at work and stuff, and workin out in the gym, thats about it, so a 98 328 huh....
wow thats some low miles, I wonder how much its going to be, let me know when you find out. And keep me updated. When is the next tech session?


Thrlls:
Nah Im still here, but I hardly get online now days, havent gotten the 5 speed, and as for the spring fling not sure kinda too expensive for me...hehehe...trying to save some money to buy me rims and find a new place to live, roommate problems...lol
