Aight. I just proposed the idea so that the big group of cars could link up. I'm down for just keeping it at IKEA.

Phil, since you know that area well, where exactly will the meeting point be?

Ok, so I went to the "location" tonight...

There's a new 24Hour Fitness being built right next to Ikea. There's a parking lot for it which is technically still part of the Ikea lot. The 24Hour Fitness isn't open yet and they're still building, so I don't think very many people, if any, will be there on the 20th. So, lets meet at the 24Hour Fitness/Ikea lot. Just look for the new 24Hour Fitness building at the corner of the Ikea parking. I've attached pics of what to look for so you know where to meet us and some "maps."

If you have any questions, please let me know!

Do you all want me to merge the valley thread with this one? I can change it so that the title states Valley also.

Trust me guys one more ticket and I am in big trouble! I am all for going a normal speed. I got a V1 installed a few months ago. hehe

I just might have one bone burst left in me?

I'm excited about meeting up with you guys.

same here... as for the V1, I've had mine for almost two years now and I'm STILL getting into trouble...

"bone burst" definitely, how about we form some sort of pack/formation and let you do it while we're covering you...

I'm sure it's not just you and I with radar detectors, glassjaw had a pretty sophisticated system on his 55...

I have had four tickets in six months! Ask Mr. Glassjaw about all the tickets he found in my glovebox on our joy ride. Awe, you are the best for offering to cover me. I got your back as well.

Have a good long weekend boys! I'm a banker so I get an extra day. One more week!

I got two tickets the weekend before New Years! Ask Drex. My car isn't as fast as yours, but it looks like we have something in common... lead feet.

have a great weekend as well!
