One of the main organizers of the meet asked me to merge it, so I did.
If you have something personal just PM it. I don't want to clutter yalls threads.

Ricky,
thanks for merging all the threads together regarding the Oct 15th Meet.
Now everything is all in one place and not cluster ****** all over a bunch or threads that were spiraling out of control.
Confusion on merged threads is usually caused by lack of an attention span.... kinda like the TOW thread. If you don't get it, you can't keep up, & you shouldn't post.

For the M400, which has T28s intead of T25s, different seats, some scoops, and a sway bar, its about 95k+.

The car I'm getting is an upgraded 3R with about 400hp. Its also a completed car, ready to go. Wait time for an M400 is 6-9 mos and climbing, since it came out in the Robb Report vs the Carerra GT.
sweet...
