KS Spring Kansas "I Possibly Smell Catfood" Rotary Meetup

Hey guys! Spring is just around the corner! It is time to set up a day to meet up.

As of right now, this is the time, date, location and other relevant information:

Pre-meet "lunch" at Emporia Sonic Drive In @ 12 Noon
(Here is a link to the Emporia Sonic location)
(Sorry, I'm not a millionaire yet, you'll have to buy your own lunch haha)

Sunday, April 13th, 2014
1:00 PM - ?:?? PM
Jones Park, Emporia Kansas

Here is a Google information page about Jones park
Jones Park, Emporia Kansas

Emporia seems to be a decent halfway point between KC and Wichita, so hopefully all of you big city folks can come out!

I might bring a few (non-alcoholic ) beverages to share, but don't count on me buying Mountain Dew for everyone!

Spread the word, all friends of the rotary engine are welcome!

Thankfully there's plenty of time to get more people into this thread to get a bigger meet together.

Hope you can make it kc mohawk! I'm planning on making the trip no matter what even if I have to cruise up by myself.

I've been texting local people, trying to make them aware of this thread, hopefully we can get a good meetup but unfortunately that's usually not the case in this area. Hope we can change that!

Well this sucks. I'll be out training in California for this one. Maybe we can set up a few more as the season goes.

If all goes well, I think we should have another in June or July.

Sorry you can't make it. If we can get a good enough turn out we should have another one in the summer!

Like I said PM in that time frame if you're interested in help and there's anything I can do let me know.

I'm down for that! I'm hoping since you made this thread so early it will give everybody plenty of time to be ready for it!

Glad to hear it!

To anyone who makes it into this thread with cars that aren't currently running/finished... I have a very busy work schedule right now but should slow down in late February or March, if at that time you need any help with your cars and need an extra hand I'd be more then willing to come help, as I'm sure many others in the KS area would be inclined to do. So, just PM me if you need any help and hopefully we can get as many people to the meet as possible!

I hope you can make it, I've been checking in on your build thread from time to time and I would love to see it in person!

Looking good man, another car I'd love to see. Hell, I'm happy to see ANY Rx7 at this point, Salina is chock full of Hondas, Mustang guys, 350zs (not that I have anything against them), and dudes in over sized trucks.

I work with a guy that drives a RX8 I'm trying to get him to come along as well, the more the merrier, right?

Or... we could just cruise up together... or you could be selfish... but seriously... let's cruise up together.

Is there a good place for the JOCO and KC people to meet up so we can all head up together?

I was planning on coming up to Salina when they hold their auto-x events in the future. Salina isn't all that far from me. I have to quit dicking around with my OCD and get this thing done though.
