I'm finally going to be picking up my supercharged BS from evosport on March 24th. I'm planning on spending the weekend in OC and I came across this event down in Lake Forest. I'm planning on attending, looks like a good time. It would be nice to see a few other BS's down there. Let me know.

Jim,

I fly in late on the 26th and the blower will be on my car as well......see u there.

Update: Stupidly we are taking the 7:30am flight from Vancouver so should be at LAX around 10:30. We are flying to Vancouver for the Bon Jovi concert on the 25th so I don't know what shape we will be in on Sat. I should be at Evosport around noon so all should be good to for the event.

It looks like Earl and I and maybe Luke will be headed to this event leaving out of evosport at around noon. Right now there are about 100 cars on the attending list, everything from a couple classic MBs to a couple SLS's and an SLR....so its probably safe to assume there will actually be about 60 cars there LOL. It would be nice to get a large sampling of BS's in various colors and various states of tune to attend.

Cool, glad you can make it. I'm probably going to be at evosport early mounting up Dymags and cleaning the car because I will be running the car out at Famoso on Friday night, probably won't look so cool rolling up on drag slicks with an 1/16th inch of burnt rubber caked onto my rear quarters and wheels wells. Looks like we are gonna roll out at noon sharp and head to the event in Lake Forest.

Roland...sounds like we will be in good hands.

I am told my car is still at the dyno with the boys from Weistec. I will tell Steve the hooters girls/models will be there as that will give some added incentive to make sure the car is at its best!
