IA Hey Iowa.....FIVE!!!

Hey guys! our last thread kind of died, (and was getting pretty long).
so, summer is coming, and I think it's time for a meet!
Lets get some ideas:
Location: likely IC, CR, or the QC.
Sub-Location: Restaurant, park, etc?
Date: a weekend...
Time: meet for lunch, at 11:00 or noon?

agreed. ian and i were just talking about this. I think we should have one in Iowa City. Resturaunt would likely be best. I can cruse to IC with the guys that might want to go from the Q.C. Since overtime is a non factor for me lately, sundays work Best for me(I have airsoft at my field on saturdays)... would be best if we could do like i did with someone local to I.C. and get something reserved. anyways my blue and white Rx-7's will be there.

You guys pick a date. The rumors I have heard lately at work are pretty much all saying that I wont have any sort of life outside of Modine so if I can make it I will and if not then Im being miserable at work wishing I was there.

To give you an idea I had Good friday, sat, and Easter Sunday off and I know I will have Memorial weekend off and anything else is up in the air. I am working this Sat (tomorrow) and Sun and most likely next Sat and Sun as well. FML

Hey it was nice meeting some of you guys Sunday. I don't remember names too well but I recall meeting jsayers and maybe Ice_Wolf Sunday. I had to give a lot of ridealongs that day and had a lot of people come talk to me so I had a lot of names and faces to remember.

Wanted to let you guys know I'm still alive and I'm still working on my FC. It may be a lifelong battle, but I swear to Felix Wankel I will make this thing stupid fast.

One of these times I plan to come to one of your guys' meets but being that I work every weekend unless I go to the lake provides a challenge. Then again my fd is undergoing a rebuild at the moment so I still have awhile before I make it to an Iowa meet.

Never did get a chance to talk to you but myself and my 4 month old son were looking over your car in the paddock at one point in the afternoon. Was only there for a few hours but was hanging out with most of the German car crew. Looked good going around the track though!

I wish I would have checked this thread. I was competing there as well, but was with the Subaru crowd. I saw you there, Nealand, but didn't realize other RX-7 people were in the area.
