We have never had any "official" meetings, although I have met a handful of owners just through my daily routine. I think we do have enough El Paso members to put something together. My last attempt was during the quad state BBQ, but no one could make it, or simply didnt want to make the 600 mile drive. We'll have to do something together just to kick things off. Throw out some ideas if interested.

I recommend the Speed Factory. Del rebuilt and ported my friend's 2nd gen RX7. Steer clear of Evolution Racing... bunch of kids with a shop. I'm heading to Virginia on Sunday, and will be gone for a week, but when I get back I'm up for a meet. Maybe by then more people will respond.

I'm back from VA. I see no one else was interested...

This is pretty much why we dont have "meets" in El Paso; there is no way to organize anything.

I met mkztg yesterday, and got to see his green machine up close. First time I ever saw a green that close, have to admit, looks pretty good.

So... another 10 days gone by. Thought I'd bump it. Anyone want to just meet up at like Hooters or something? Grab a beer, take some group pics out in the parking lot? Nothing big, just an hour or so of your time. Just trying to stir things up. If we can somehow get like 4 of us together, it could be worth it.

Sorry I haven't been around the thread that much.. I pop into the site to catch up on the big picture. I've been busy getting everything ready for my impending PCS.

It was good to meet you the other day NoTears. I think that we could work some sort of meeting for the 4 or so of us one day soon. I take my 8 to Dallas to ship her to Germany on 6 June so it would need to be before then for me.

Let me know what works for you guys..

You heard it guys. We have until the 6th to get our collective heads out of our asses. How about we shoot for Saturday or Sunday, one hour out of everyone's time, meet, grab a beer perhaps?

3 June works for me.. I can get away for about an hour.. If there aren't any better suggestions, how about Mulligans in the NE.. I'm thinking like 2-3 pm or so.. If I don't hear back by friday then I'll have to be out.. lots of stuff to do for clearing.

Mulligan's North Bar & Grill

10710 Gateway North

Suite A-1

El Paso, TX

79924



Just jump on 54 and take it out past Transmountain (or coming from the west side like myself, just take Transmountain to 54). I'm pretty sure there is a Kenworthy exit... exit there but stay on Gateway North and it should be right there.

I sent out a few emails to try and get people to visit the board, hopefully we can get 4 or 5 of us out there. I hope the weather improves because it looks like **** outside right now.

Looks like it'll be us 4, unless someone else pops up later today. 2pm... try not to be too fashionably late. See you all Saturday.
