I'll put it down in pencil and let you know if something comes up and I cannot make it.

Looking forward to meeting some more C3ers.

Sounds good to me! Although I have a suggestion... Dickeys BBQ on arapaho & plano rd has better food (IMHO) and better parking...

I think you need to put it down in ink! We all want to see your ride.

Hmmm, what's not to like.

Woo Hoo!!!!!

Anyone else? We should eat first, then checkout cars so that those that
need to leave early can get a chance to eat.

Yep. If you are coming from central on arapaho you hang a left on plano rd and you will see it on your right hand side almost immediately. There's one building before it. Easy to find.

This is my first forum. My car's not ready yet (preparing for EFI), so would it be in poor taste to show up and try and "steal" some hints? Several of you have been extremely helpful with your time/responses and I'd like to take advantage of a look and say "Thanks".

:lol:

No, if you want to play with the juice, I'm bringing the Z06. The bottles are full. :D

texasshark, please come out. If its raining or its 105^F (which it won't be), then I wouldn't be bringing my C3 'vert. Adam says that's ok. ;)

So I guess its Dickey's now? Fine by me.

Have you guys firmed up your plans for lunch today, is it Dickeys at Central and Arapaho??? My lunch Appt just cancelled so its on my schedule. Do you guys have a secret handshake, password or some sort of gang sign you flash when you walk in the door???

Hey Woodchuck;

No we don't have any secret or special greeting - although we probably should since
it's tough to find the people when you've never met them...

Either look for the cars, or I'm wearing a blue shirt and red shorts - should not be too common...
Plans are firm - Dickeys at arapaho and Plano Rd.

See you there...

Yeah, the lunch is a go! Dickeys @ Arapaho and Plano Rd.

Directions: Coming from Central (75), take the Arapaho Rd exit and go East. A few lights later (approx 1-2 miles) you will come to the Plano Rd intersection. Take a left. Dickeys is the second building on your right.

We'll meet a few minutes before 11:30 and then enter together. For those who are late it shouldn't be too hard to locate us inside.

See ya! :chevy

We all dress in Star trek gear and give the Vulcon sign. I probably butchered the words. Just kidding.

Dickeys, at lunch. I would think we would start rolling in at 11:30 to beat the luch crowd. I'll wear a white t-shirt with car stuff on it and a corvette hat.
