I think KompressorKev is not going to be in town at that time. You can see pictures of his car in the thread regarding the "aftermath" of the previous meet.

I used to be neighbored with the guy who owned the dealership. He never paid any special attention to us.

"chang" is that some sort of implication that all Chinese people are cheap?
Yeah, I thought about that, but its quite a far drive just for a wash. Lol...I dunno if its an implication that all chinese are cheap. My fathers chinese, and he sure is cheap. lol.

My father is cheap as well, but he spends extravagently on a few things (such as golf and dining).

I'm kind of the same way, I cut a lot of corners here and there like I don't eat out all the time (unlike my companions who eat out every single meal of the day), I don't go to watch the movies all the time (I do rent at Blockbusters though), and currently, in my dorm, I'm hoarding all the toilet paper. However, I do spend extravagently on things that I like.

Come down to my local dealership and get the car washed on most Saturdays around noon. They take their time (about 45 minutes, but they say an hour) so you're forced to look at the nearby Porsche and Mercedes dealership.

Coincidentally..

That SoCal Euro Gathering is happening on the same date, same time. I guess we might as well call this a NorCal Euro Gathering .

At least all the euros in California are doing a big GTG for the day . I wonder if they'll get an SL65 Renntech down there...

To bad I can't make it, gotta work that day. Looks like it will be a big turnout, which is good for NorCal.
Flip, I haven't even seen the new shop yet! I feel like I've been out of the whole loop! Too much work and not enough spare time. Good luck and wish I could be there, but I'll see you guys maybe next week.

Careful, you and Eugene have 5 liter engines. I'm not even half the size. It may be just slightly more difficult for me to actually "kill" the ricers.
