Would love to.......but

I've been looking forward to a meet since the last one at The Glenn, it's like two minutes from house and there were plenty of cool people to talk with. Unfortunately in April I made the dumb decision to drive drunk and was arrested for it (In my drive way nonetheless). So ultimately I wont be able to drive until Sept. 1. If this goes down though, Fitcapo, definately bring your camera I'd love to see some updated pics of everyones rides. I have done plenty to my car since The Glenn meet, so i'm looking forward to getting my lisence back. Hope you get a big turn-out.

P.S.~ I have the A-Spec test pipe (Cat-Delete) for sale. It was on the car for maybe 1-month. So if anyones interested shoot me a P.M.

I will definetly bring my camera. The glen sounds good to me it wasn't that far and was pretty easy to find.

I wanted the a spec cat delete but I decided it would be too much of a hassle to take it on and off once a year just to pass emissions.

Yeah it was taking the stock exhaust off, but once I had the b-pipe out and the new one in along with the test pipe, it is a sinch to swap them. I think it took me 30min 45 tops to swap the stock cat back in. But I agree it's a pain just for emissions.

The last meet at the glen we had 9 people i think total. That meet we just hung out and took some pics. From the sounds of it this time Mike wants to go cruise around after we meet up and take some pics.

Might have the same amount this time or a little more. There are a couple newer guys that have showed intrest in meets in between. Who ever really knows tho because I tryed to have a meet in July in WI and there were about 5 people that said they were coming and no one showed up.

Just keep on checking in here and when we finally decide when this is going down just get someones number so when it comes time to go you can get a better idea of what is actually going down.

I have never been to one so I would be down to cruise there later and if I don't like it I can always leave

23rd at noon at the top floor of the glen parking garage sounds good to me.
