Haha, too bad I missed that.

I had a good time and it was to put faces to the screen names. I'm down for a monthly meet or the pre meet for supercar Saturday if that's in the works.

Btw my friend that was with me knew some of those super car guys and they had there own "private" meet down the block. It was only 4 cars and they just hung out by themselves

The "topic of the day" is all the more reason for us to get together and talk without risk of what the mods might think or say.

Same. We should try and meet up early near by and roll in together. I know one of the organizers - I'll ask him if there is anyway we can reserve a AMG section.

From what I heard the glen doesn't allow it anymore (a couple shop owners were complaining) so I think it will be a different location. I'll try and get details and post it up.

BBQ at someone's house maybe?


Know what might be fun, meet up and caravan down to say Ottawa and visit the "Dance Club" there. Drink, drive some back roads, get a lap dance and so on.


Or maybe hit up a drag strip. Street tire Tuesdays at Great Lakes?
