Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

What snow depth is everyone seeing so far?

 

About 6” in Sparks at 4900’. Just jumped above freezing though so it’s kind of melting already.

 

I was standing up about chest deep in 4-4.5 feet of snow at NorthStar today

 

8” in south Reno. Seems to have finally stopped for good

 

Over by Keystone and McCarran it's a little over a vodka bottle deep.

 

About a foot at my place.

 

A little more than 6" here in the south...

 

You've got a bit to go until your a vodka bottle deep.

 

Mt Rose hwy is the only time driving the truck that I get infuriated. Before you get to the actual mountain, it's 55mph...so 3rd gear is screaming around 4k and 4th is just barely enough to not be slowing down, so I end up going around 60-62 just to maintain speed. Once you get to the mountain 4th can't cut it unless you're willing to just cruise slower and baby the gas or go faster than posted. 3rd can do it just fine, but once you're trying to speed up to around 50+, you're once again knocking the door of high rpms. The gearing is just too tall. I think I've used 6th gear...once. On any normal day, 4th is the highest I go. Assuming $$$$$, I'll be throwing a supercharger on it and may eventually regear.

 

yeah, I was seeing about 7-8" near my place in South Reno. When I visited my buddy more in the northwest, he was closer to 10+ by the time I left.

 

I can save you a ton of money! Let me tune it lol!

 

At work I drove a third gen on 35’s with 5.29’s and was loaded heavy w racks and gear etc. and even in the short time I drove it I could tell. The gas pedal actually works. But being able to cruise 85 mph on highway is also nice so trade offs ig

 

That's right

 

Funny having basically t-shirt weather (when in the sun) this afternoon

 

You do second gens???

 

Sure do!

 

Do we have a sports jersey/lettering place here in reno? Or a good Tailor you guys would trust to sew on some lettering and a number to a hockey jersey? I'll supply the lettering and number to make sure it matches original


Finding an older Mike Modano jersey in this style is pretty damn hard. So I managed to find one without player and number(which still wasnt easy for good condition and not outrageous priced)

Random other hockey thought: With the planned arena at GSR and the arizona coyotes having issues finding an arena to play in, since owner of GSR is a part owner of AZ theres speculation they could play a couple years if the GSR arena gets built in time/ a minor league affiliate. Could be pretty cool to have. Wonder if reno could draw big enough crowds.

 

We had one years ago. It was fun to go to, but I didn’t go very often. It didn’t last very long.
