About an hour or so away. Yes, it would look good in the group. I think it's settled that we're going on Sunday, I say tell your boss you recquire this day off since you bust your rear(dadgum censor clause) on Saturday nights and such.

Ok peoples, Sunday it is. We're def. going to VMP this Sunday, so far Frank, Adam, and myself are going(as usual)...Artawesome, I'll come down to Wal-mart Saturday night and kick your boss in the nuts myself if it'll get you a free day Sunday. Where's bosswoman at, she definately needs to join the group, and Phil, if you read this, you're coming as well...Shoot me a pm if you're good to go, so I know who all to expect. We'll most likely want to meet here in Hampton, and if we do like last time, it'll be around 0900.

Ok, so at about 1410(2:10 pm) today on Fox Hill road in Hampton, I saw a red S/C pass by me...Who are you(assuming you're on the site)? I was in the big white Safelite van. If this guy isn't, someone know who this person is?

Ok, so here's the deal...We have a good number of cobalts in this area, yet it's always the same three meeting up. I understand people's timeframes differ, so here is what I propose...We all get in contact with anyone we know that has a cobalt in this area, once we do that, I say the whole group sets up a date, at least 2 weeks in advance, to meet up during the week for a couple of beers/food/meet&greet. Once we can set that up, we can all sit down as one mass and plan for what would most likely be a track day. If you're on cobalt.com, let them know as well. I give such a huge time window because of people's work times. I'm not proposing a day long meet/greet, but like I said, we all can meet up at like a Bennigan's or Hooters or whatever, have some, a couple of drinks if you're allowed, and plan for track days, etc. Yes, I'm kinda Jealous the guys in Az got this down already. why should they have all the fun? GO ahead and send me a pm, or call me if you have my number to let me know if you're game for this, so I can jot you down.

Let' see what we can get together for the initial meet up during a weeknight, or on a sunday, so we ALL can plan for a group day event where we all can attend.


Doc, good form posting it up on .com, the more the merrier.
