I like the idea - BUT - given that the forecast for tomorrow and Thursday is rain and snow, I think it might be poorly attended, beyond the short notice.

I'd love to suggest an alternate date, but the next few weekends at least are already mostly booked for me.

You gotta give these guys at least a months notice round here.


I'd suggest something more solid towards the end of may. Sundays usually work pretty well for most folks.

So go drive man. If I was you, I'd be out right now. Not a car on the road. My neighbour lives in his Z06 after midnight.

i would definetly be down for a meet. dont know about 2nite though. But i sure dont need a months notice. Spur of the moment often works for me. 6pm is kind of a shitty time for a meet aswell, 2 much traffic. i like to go out late @ nite like mentioned above.

We'll have to get together and go for a cruise. My car should be done by the end of the week or early next week.

I moved my Rx-7 to the driveway as well. Washed it a couple times, made some adjustments. Just playing the waiting on parts game.

If this thing was to ever work, we would have to give advance notice, like about 2 weeks, at least, so everyone can plan ahead and around it.

We usually have a spring meet around the end of may. Usually a BBQ of somekind.

I nominate Glenmore park because the last time we did glenmore, it was awesome.


You have to give a months notice at least, so I would plan for something the first couple weeks of june not on a long weekend, usually sundays work good for most folks.



Problem with the last couple of years is that people are really busy with work and the exploding economy here so its hard to find time with their cars.

I would like to annouce the completion of my RX-7. After 9 months of surgery, its finally complete. A few odds and ends after the vacation and I'll be driving it daily.

After getting the exhaust done - I was able to rip on it finally. HOLY $%#@ does it go like hell. Almost went into the ditch a few times.

perhaps saturday the 17th at north glenmore park? that'll give me a week to put my dash back together and find insurance.

That's pretty close to bretts bbq. How about Sat may 31, we can make it the official spring meet. And we'll go with North Glenmore Prk as well since that was a successful spot and great for pics. now all we have to do is find a Hooter girl for photo shoots with each car.
