bay area drive 8/13

Hey Guys and Gals, It’s summer and it’s time for another GROUP DRIVE! We’re planning on having one on 8/13/05 and everyone is welcome. This isn’t going to be a big fancy drive ending in a buffet lunch. Just a bunch of us car crazy people getting together, going on a drive, stopping for some pictures, driving again and then maybe lunch. We’ll meet at 9am and depart at 10am. The drive will probably be about 2hr. and those who want lunch after can stay. It’s open to all makes and models so we’re hoping to get some Italian cars to go with the German cars…and maybe a little rice on the side…haha

Neil from Orton Performance will be in town and can answer any question you may have about PSI Products.

Please RSVP with Name and Car to: Itzkirb@969motorsports.com so we can get a headcount. We’ll Provide Donuts and Coffee in the morning.

When: 8/13/05
Who: Open to all cars
Where to meet: 969 Motorsports
Directions: www.969motorsports.com
Time: 9am meet and greet 10am departure.
Route: TBD

NOTE: This is not a race. It is a leisurely weekend drive.
