We will be there for this one, I promise...

Is it the same day as John's Autocross? I want to see that 300D do the track. Heck with the new Bilsteins on Rudy I might give it a go myself. Someone has to turn in the slowest time

Is there somethin' y'all want me to bring?

Oh, and I still want my SL ride!

You're a young fellow with minimal responsibilities. Time for a road trip my good man! If you fail to arrive for a scheduled GTG, we'll throw something together in your honor.

Great! We are looking forward to meeting everyone and doing burn-outs in the SL.

I'll do the Silver Star deal, but tell me what the heck to do.


Anyhow, thanks to PP, Ms. PP and Mistress for hosting and putting this par-tay together.

They're awesome. If you don't eat 'em when hot, they tend to get a dry and not nearly as tasty. Unless it's the turtle.

It all came together...

I used to live in DC and Alexandria, also where we met. Her family is out that way as well.

About 4 years ago, I flew into Atlanta for a gtg, ditto New Orleans last summer.
