I'd love for it to be complete BS trust me, but with as loud as my exhaust is (full 3" turbo back straight pipe) I'm not willing to take the chance.. sorry.. I'm not willing to be the test guinea pig here.

Plus I'm pretty sure you heard my exhaust at On Track Karting that one time. I love the sound of my exhaust, but if that was you there then you know first hand how loud it is.... If not then CTCar at least knows exactly what I'm talking about.

Yeah yours gets pretty loud haha.

On the weather this morning it's showing rain for this whole weekend, so who knows if it will still happen.

Also my buddy is in the central car club and they have a show may 1st if people are interested in that. No cops inspecting haha

I wasn't there last year, I plan to go this year.

Also for everyone worried about the cops checking illegal mods (tints, ride height, loud exhaust, etc) that was all a rumor. There still isn't a loud exhaust contest and no race cars, but the cops will be doing the same thing they do every year, just drive normal and you will be fine. If you have facebook search for uconn car club spring 2011 show and on the wall a few people have asked, and the car club pres said they were rumors

Their twitter also says it's rumours, like I said... And yeah man sounds like your exhaust is prob loud I wouldn't chance it ether. Pretty much they said as long as your not burning out being an idiot your good.

I personally can't wait.. Gonna be fun.
We should list how many people meeting at the spot before so we can kinda have a guess how many of us are gonna be there. so that way we dnt have like 10 people and leave when wer expecting like 50 lol

Here is a message from the car club president on facebook:
Hey everyone, the Uconn Car Club officers wanted to send out a friendly reminder that our show is happening this saturday (rain or shine - as of right now it looks like 'shine') in W-Lot on the Uconn Storrs campus. The lot will be clearly marked with our car show signs. We open the lot at 9am, and stop accepting cars either at 12:00 or when the lot fills. If you want to park with someone, you need to arrive early and together, we will not be saving spots for anyone.

There have been rumors going around that the police will be checking every car for illegal parts. Again, these are only rumors. The police will be present, as they always are. They will leave you alone unless you give them a reason not to. Any problems that occur are between you and the police; participation is at your own risk.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
-Chad
