Beck has passed away. There won't be anymore of these intakes unfortunately. Sheet metal is the way to go, but they are pricey!

So I'm getting the feeling that the members want to move a little more central to better accommodate everyone. I certainly want to make sure that everyone is comfortable with the location.

We do have members driving quite a way from the West, North, and South. Only Mark and I are on the East side.

Brick house was a good spot. I thought it was a mistake moving from there in the first place.

I'll wait till later tonight to see if there are any major objections.
I want to be fair to everyone to have a part in the decision.

Thanks guys !
Toque.

Christee:

Thanks for the option ! I don't want to say no to any suggestion as we all have a choice in the decision on this stuff.

Most of our members have an easier time getting to the 190 GB, and 75 area. We are still trying to stay roughly around that area if possible so it does not make anyone have to drive too far to the GTG. Seems most members have around 20 ish mins driving time. Our members are coming from all directions.

My concern with a place like that is that (breasturaunt) is that we all want this to be a place that our lady friends can feel comfortable with. Some of our lady friends stopped coming because we used to meet at a place like that. We don't want to discourage anyone from coming to join us for these meetings.

Lets talk at the next GTG !

Brickhouse had good food (at least to me) and great parking. Aside from the whole Fried Chicken debacle I thought the place was great.

That'd be fun, but I'm booked! I'm running the RX7 that'll probably win the thing first round, round 2 I'm running Matt, and round 3 I've got a 911 turbo.

If you're running John (427 LS3) he makes around 600whp and of course is light.

If you're running Jared? He makes 743whp.


Tough races all around, they weigh 2700lbs stock.

Replacement kit...is in the works. I'll have new numbers before RR.

Guys:

Those that wants to attend that fund raiser ROTC car show with me on Saturday....

My son's babysitter spoke with her Colonel and he told her that Judging starts before 10am. So we likely need to split from Cars n Coffee around 9:00am. That still gives us a solid couple of hours at CnC.
Maybe early enough we can leave out the front gate before they close it.

Guys:

Is there any desire to go to CnC a little earlier ?
Was it really PACKED last month when you got their at 6:50 ish ?
I was not in town for it.

Let me know, and I can set a time for everyone to meet.

So far the weather is looking GOOD !



Plan to meet at the below location at 6:15am with a departure time of 6:30am sharp.

I was not at the last Cars and Coffee... I heard it was crazy busy. Should we consider meeting and leaving a little earlier ?

Yeah, running Jrod. I'm going to get torched if he doesn't break. John C doesn't have but one grudge setup, run him! I watched that thing at the mile put down 190, it scoots. It'd be a good run w/ you on the bottle.

That might actually be a good run...but I'm not exactly making 700whp and he is a lot lighter. I'd need 700 to pull him.

It'll still be a good run, and both of you guys need grudge matches.
