I am wondering the same thing. Sent Lars an email and have not heard back. I am up the road in BTR but am willing to drive down if we can find someone to host the deal. Any word on that?

I'll drive down from BR to hang out. Just let me know when although my car is still being worked on so not much tuning for it until it is driveable again.

Got an email from him tonight.

The LA tour is still on - I got back late from the FL tour (just now), and I have to head out to UT in the morning. I'll be back here again Sat. eve, and I'll touch base with everyone then to get things set up. If you could spread this info to those you know about, please do. Look forward to meeting you all, and I'll touch bases with you Sat eve. Thanks!

Lars


Thats one busy dude.

OK guys, we still don't have a close enough place to Lars to host the event. My place would have been great, but its too far away from him, and everybody else really. Any ideas???

I am working on finding a place in greater N.O., but don't hold your breath. Why don't all who are interested post here with where you are coming from so we can narrow down the possible locations. I am in BTR.

I'm interested but I don't think anyone wants to come up north to West Monroe. Wish I could make it down there and get Lars to look at my car but have committments. Wish you all a lot fun drinking beer, working on carbs, and talking about corvettes! :cheers:

How about a large parking lot somewhere if we can't go to a members house? We would have to watch the niose but the aquarium parking lot is pretty big and right by the Quarters. :confused:

Im close to baton rouge...
I'd rather drive somewhere as we have my front yard as work room...
A parking lot somewhere would be fine or if a member in the NO area has a nice place to do this...
Hell, id do this in a hot sunny desert with nothing to drink. Lars tuning is superb I hear
