I would take the supra but that wont make it out of the garage Rear wheel drive + Summer tires+ 3" of snow in the driveway make it impossible. I am actually going to be searching for a bodyshop on saturday... the thought had crossed my mind to drive it down missing half the bumper and drivers door panel, so we'll see. Im interested in seeing your M class...

Yeah horrible meet, I thought it would of been better, nice meeting my benz boys as usual, but i felt the meet was overrun by fartcans, ricer fly-by's, f-body's flooring it, and the lack of lights in a poorly litted garage...

VIk - I'm not sure why the F bodies or that very annoying lambo-doored red civic coupe were so eager to show how bad they sounded, either.

But, hey - I got to see two Elises in person, so it was more than worth it.

And was fun to see how close the idiots came to those poles and each other in the snow on the roof.

55 - a couple of people here took some pics, though I'm not really sure if they're worth even posting, to tell you the truth.

I've got some pics, but nothing really spectacular. The most intersting thing at the meet was the Lotuses.

It was fun seeing the idiots almost crashing in to light poles and seeing the one person that just couldn't quite get the handle of how to navigate out of snow properly.

I didn't understand that Civic. Lowered, but on stock rims, with Lambo doors. Hood painted black so that they can pretend it is carbon fiber.
