Right right right, I'm glad you reminded me.
Hey, what's the age group(s) that meets at the filling station. It's not the Civic & Eclipse crowd, is it?

it's the "mature" meet.. ages are generally mid-20s on up... mostly luxury/exotic/show... skylines, vipers, lambos, ferrari, porsche, classics, etc... there will be staff working to keep an eye on cars, etc... well organized... parking specifically for the cars to show and a separate one for spectators....

just show up clean :)

I've got a change of plans. I will meet up at the Filling Station @ 2. Save a spot for me with the rest of the Boxsters please.

Nice pics folks! :cheers:

BTW, is it always that packed with nice cars??

lucky_topher 02-24-2008 06:28 PM

always!

the cool thing is there are some regulars and always some new interesting cars... and 95% of the owners are really great, quality, non-stuck-up car enthusiasts who love to discuss the full gamut of cars :)

Jeph 02-24-2008 07:28 PM

Check that out! No, not the stud in the Cubs hat, but the reflection of him in the hood. I clay bar'd it for the first time today.

Glad to meet everyone, Boxsters had a strong showing. Maupin's pics are great, giving me D-SLR envy!

JPW 02-25-2008 06:04 PM

Great turn out. Glad to have met everyone. The only thing better than seeing them all sitting there is running them down a back country road. If the weather stays as nice as it was this weekend, we won't even have to wait until spring.

Anybody up for kicking around some ideas for routes and dates?
