I'm scared to go now as my car is blue......
I personally always found UCKK to be a decent meet with decent folks attending, where else would you see Aaron floss his engine bay
Like any gathering of people the advice given regarding mods is always going to be suspect to say the least (try getting all your advice on mods from the internet, it's just as bad) I would say take what people say as an opinion not fact. Make your own judgement based on research.

The simple fact is:
A) Accessport IS crap.
B) People don't get along with everyone, so find people you enjoy spending time with and do it.
C) Make an effort to join conversations and such.

Yea, I just find it dumb that people can't join conversations. This isn't high school where people aren't approachable. Dude, just walk up and participate! No need for anyone to hold your hand! The people there are cool. You just gotta..uh..*gasp* talk to them!

That was my issue with the meet, and after making several attempts, I didn't feel like I was making much progress in the meeting-people department, so I just gave up. I don't mean this as a personal attack to anyone, I've just noticed that UCKK is less friendly than the other regular meets that I've been to.
Aside from that, I agree with what was said before. Driving 30+ minutes on a school night is pretty inconvenient for me, and I'm sure I'm not the only person in that position. If it were more than standing around in a parking lot, it might be worth it, but it's not enough to justify the long drive.

I agree with this statement.....me and my buddy went there for about 3 weeks and I thought it was a little clickish also, I agree with Heavy Dan too, I am 30 and it seemed like the rest were in thier early twenties and I just felt like I was ages apart from them. I tried talking to several groups and they would chit chat with you and then just walk off....after doing that for 3 weeks I gave up.............if kellie or heavy dan would like to meet there my friend and I would gladly hang out with you two to shoot the **** or just drive somewhere.

i don't agree with the clickish statements at all. The people that are "clickish" are the people that come on a regular basis and have become friends wtih people there. Like Takumi said, no one should have to hold your hand, participate in a conversation and be a part of a group; its not highschool.

91 map pulls timing. The 93 map doesn't, gives me better timing and doesn't knock. Imagine that? Seems a little weird doesn't it?
