Good enough. I'll just make sure I've got an extra 20 on me.

The year before they didnt have it on the site either sadly. But I'd stick with the $20 "donation" assumption for right now.

BUMP! One more week guys and gals.

Oh and I'm also trying to convince the GF to let me host a lil party at our place afterward since her sister had her wedding today and we have a TON of left over food. And I mean ribs and chicken here folks and good stuff from what I constantly over heard. Plus we have enough soda to last even me over a month. I'll keep ya updated and hope/pray it happens hehe..

Got my fingers crossed. Might be going to Long Island to visit Kathleen's grandmother, but she may go w/her mom down there Thursday instead. Still a Saturday morning decision.

Dmc call me up that morning to let me know if your coming or not. My house is a great meeting spot since its like a minute from 95 (and the shell station right by the entrance is usualy dirt cheap!).

I'm definatly going, the gf knows I need this and been wanting to go to this since its been a yearly thing for me. That and for Charity to boot so I think if she said no a part of her would feel guilty.

Josh I myself plan on getting there 'round the 8:30 arrival time atleast at the moment (might be later if Dmc is going and will be a bit late ) what time do you and the Nepoc guys plan on arriving? Depending on how I'm feeling that day I may or may not have a lead foot!!!

Well mapquest is telling me close to 2 hours to get there from my house. I'm scrapping my 8:30 show up time lol.. I'm thinking of leaving at 7am. I know I can definatly shave off a few (try several) minutes off the 1hr 41min estimate they give me.

Btw they are sending me up 495 then onto Rt-4 for Everett Turnpike.

It's the same distance whether you go 495 or 95, so why risk Boston traffic on 95?


And Josh, c'mon - it's summer in NE, when the f8ck won't there be "isolated thunderstorms" in the forecast???

Well I'm still going as it stands right now but I figured I'd post this up now just incase.

A friend borrowed my car today and has a few times this week. She told me tonight that while driving the car stalled atleast 3 times at a stop light. That and the check battery light came on numerous times. Oh and when the car was dropped off to me tonight I went to start it to go home, it sat at idle and felt like it wanted to die. Meh thinks its new motor times folks!

Hmm.. so anyone going to the show who has a Check Engine Light Checker? lol.. I gotz myself a SOLID CEL!! Whoohoo.. ugh.. car is starting to sound like it wants to die upon start up.. then slowly gets back into a somewhat normal groove. I'm definatly still going since I'm sure someone there might have a portable thingy on 'em.. a show as large as this someone should have one haha. Ok time to try to clean the car in this rainy weather lol.

I'll be expecting a phonecall in the AM. Hey Josh if you still have my number call me up tonight or tomorrow morning maybe to see if we could get some of meet up spot put together (unless your Nepoc guys are going a different route all together

Can't wait for this btw!!

Found out I have to drop off the kids so I myself hit a snag so oi.. here's hoping my car starts and someone has a scanner at the show..

That and just checked the weather channel.. weather cleared up nice for us today.. might be a bit chilly but still no rain (for the most part in the early am).

Well I just got back after a pit stop in Sharon.
I had a great time as always, met several great new people both 3 and a new 8 owner. Shame some of you guys didnt come up, the rain held off till about 1pm.

For trophies, SE3's (angela's? meh thinks that is her) made Rx-7 won first and a Miata won second. Only 3 Rx-8's showed up including myself. Bob, Don and myself all represented nicely I believe. Still unsure how the hell one of us didnt pull out 2nd place atleast?!?!? I knew the 7 would win first but 'eh.. who knows.

Pictures will be up soon in the multi-media section.
