I thought we were going to grab a bite? Not sure if I'll be doing the karting thing.. I'll come for the meet though.

Dying, you're car is looking good! I hope to see it in person one of these days. As long as you don't lower your car you should be fine for winter. (hehehe...)

We can always get food after the karting, I'm sure eating first then karting would not bode well on many stomachs =/

looks like there is a chance i might actually be able to make it! but i dont think i will be participating in the go-kart thing though.

slowlude: its already lowered...and it cracked a little bit today.... I came across this construction area in china town where they were trying to cover some wire across a narrow 1 lane road by creating some huge speed-bump covering it. I didnt have room to 'attack' it at an angle and my car is lower than the bump... it was painfulllllll

I am not sure if I will have my rx8 with me on Sunday, it's going to the dealer to get the console lid fixed (slides itself close when I am braking, been like this for a long time) and getting my sunroof (rattles BAD when it is sliding open) checked out. My bumper-2-bumper warranty is up this month.

Can I bring my Mazda 3 ...or TSX if I don't have my 8?

I left PM's for a couple of people that might not make the carts to call me and I'll let them know where we are headed.
