OH Meet at my place, 6-22-13

i know most of you are out of state but as always, the invitation is open and i can provide accommodation if need be. part of the reason that i am posting this here. i haven't met a lot of you guys and wanted to extend the invitation. as always, i like to post this in advance, so for those who are wanting to attend can make the necessary arrangements. the meet will be held at my place in Vermilion OH on 6-22-13 and will start in the early afternoon, say noon. i will provide some food and drink and the means to prepare the food. anything extra brought by attending persons would be much appreciated. i'm usually stocked up on soda and water. we usually grill burgers, brats, hot dogs, steaks etc.

this year i wanted to incorporate something a tad different. i plan on supplying a 12A engine so that you guys can play with it and disassemble it. also if anyone attending has not tore a rotary engine down, i feel this would be a fun and positive experience. if anyone would like, the shooting range is open and all are encouraged to do some shooting. bring your own guns or use one of mine. i have been planning a little different cruise route from last year's routes. a little longer and more back road driving pleasure. as always, car repairs are welcome at my place and i offer my help working on anything anyone decides to bring. i have enough tools and feel we can take on any job presented. as always there will be parts giveaways and plenty of parking and moving room!

please RSVP here or send me a message or post here. i need to know how many people are attending so i know how much food to buy. if you need directions or have any questions please feel free to ask! i may look into having rotary magnets made up to hand out for all those attending. not sure yet of the cost or availability but i will look into it.

I must regretfully decline - a major project of the wife's (she's starting a business) will eat my vacation time this year, and I'm looking at a diff swap before I undertake any more long-distance driving in the -7.

Options open up in latter years, though, and I'd love the adventure. Perhaps in future?

Meeting at Dave's

Hi Dave. I had a great time at last year's meeting and learned a lot of valuable information. If the weather is good (like last year) and the rotary gods are with me I'll be there. Anything I can bring? PM me off board and let me know.

will do Ed. i'll talk it over with Stacy and see if there's anything we would need. we probably have everything covered and since you would be making the long drive, we wouldn't require anything additional.

If the weather is good I'll be there. It's only about a 3 hour drive for me.

Not sure if I can swing it or not, but I'd like to make an attempt. Sorry for the late response, I'm not on here quite as much as I used to be.

The forecast is looking good for Saturday so I better put some gas in the RX-7 because I know I can't make it to your place on the fumes that are in the tank right now. Do you need me to bring anything that will survive 3 hours in my un-airconditioned car?
