The Cobra. I already have the boring E430 angle covered. Trying to see if my friend with the C06 will join us.

Hey,
any Penn State fan is always welcome! (class of '88 here)

Besides, if we didn't allow stock cars, our meets would be about half the size that they already are.

The date/time have already been set for the 29th (SUNDAY) at 1pm.

As of now, we'll all sit around Rick's cooler and drink his soda.

I'll volunteer charcoal, burgers, and my usual Mt. Dew. And will bring all utensils; will look into how many plates, etc. I have remaining from prior years' meets, and post if anything else is needed.

Hey guys, even though I'm not a regular here, I'd love to bring my Benz to the meet. It's a stock, boring wagon, except for the cool MP3 headunits which I installed.

Do you need us to bring anything? Drinks, chips, etc? Tunes; I've got PLENTY.

But what about Gary's NY/NJ meet he's planning in another thread. Was he going to merge with you?

See you guys in Edison soon.

I don't know if he plans to merge. This meet was initiated first. We mainly need alcohol, ice, chips are good. Maybe tomatoes/lettuce for the burgers...hot dogs...did I mention alcohol?

Anyone can jump in here, lest I be called Martha Stewart again.

Would Paula Deen be more appropriate?

OK, looks like mid-60s and no rain for Sunday.

By my estimation, so far it's:
Me
RBrenton, supermodel, I mean supermoderator
FireFox31
MG
alewifebp
Benzdriver9 (Blue-White game was this past weekend - ahhh, good times!)
Oliverk
TommyGunn
06Benz230
rubberninja
C230KATIE
hubert
RobertG

I'll call Opie, as he doesn't seem to come around here anymore. Did I miss anyone? Also, please post what you're going to bring, allright? Gracias!

So far I am in and I will be bringing a 2001 Excursion diesel AKA The Omen.

I have to be in Philly on Saturday for a welcome home party so if I get totally *** faced I won't be able to attend the gathering.

Tommy: I am nervous for this season. People are saying this might be a 5-6 loss season for the Nittany Lions.

If I make it, I will eat lunch before I jet outta Hoboken and I don't drink and drive so I will be bringing a bottle of Poland Spring (yeah I'm gangsta).

With their play calling, even with great talent, that's always a possibility. I still doubt Morelli's ability to think his way out of a wet paper bag. With the two major losses (brown and poz) this year, I'm guessing 7-5. Hell, I'd be happy with 1-11 as long as that win was against ND.

I'll try to bring a cooler with a few beers and a bunch of soda (for those who DON'T drink and drive). What do you all like, Bass? Personally, I'm a hard liquor man, so the beer is your call.
