Default Paging LARS - San Diego visit

LARS I have 4 people together for a possible visit if you can tell me possible dates. I also have 2 residences both 2 car garages to choose from. Please advise me of your schedule. I'll take lead on this for the guys and book your flight and all particulars. Guys I'll get with you later on the $$ issues. It's 86 degrees today and spent the day with my parents visiting from Michigan, showed them all the beaches and some i'm sure you'll love it.

Hey, this might be worth a drive over, just to meet everyone.

I'll be watching this thread to see what date you come up with.

Cali & SDPaul -
I just caught the post here and my IM - sent Paul a note back. Be glad to come out and do an event with you guys, but October is booked solid right now. I have 2 weekends still available in November, and the DC/NoVA guys are looking to grab one of those. Drop me an e-mail so we can get in touch and work out a date.

Paul -
Be sure to drop me an e-mail and include your phone number. I'll send you out an info sheet on the Tuning Tour events and I'll give you a call so we can talk about it and get it set up.

E-mail sent to LARS. Looks like the 6th and using Paul's garage and i'll bring my gear over. Paul still has to come over to assess my place. i believe my garage is bigger but the parking sucks and that is the deciding factor. Susan is a huge hostess/ cook and she volunterred her services which is why I suggested my place.
