Young - sure! I'm going either the 18th or 19th. Will probably be in a cast, though, as I'm going skiing the previous weekend for the first time in about 15 years.

hello everyone! if all the interested members could reply, that would be great.

i'd like to propose:

Sunday January 19th - 11am
meet inside the lobby (usually, there's only one entrance at the "light tunnel")

Usually sometime in mid-March - I'll throw an alert up on the board when the date becomes known.

Hmm - five hours for sways? Front AND aft? Dang! How does it feel now they're in?

Chris, you're way off - it's April 18-27. Does seem kind of late this year, though. It's all at autoshowny.com - looks like lots of cool accessory-type of things there as well as the cars.

That was 5 hrs. for both of our sets. Getting my Eibach rear bar around all of the twisties around the diff. was a rubik's cube.

We should try to meet up. Hopefully, Young won't do any heavy lifting the day before again, so that he doesn't have an excuse. :p

Desitively - let's get together before AND at the NYAutoShow. Question is where? I'm open; you guys know this part of the planet better than I (but I'd have some great ideas for Berlin, GE).

Hasta la pasta,

Chris
