It is looking like 18th is going to be the day. We'll be leaving IHOP parking lot at 10am. Cross your fingers for good weather.

Sounds good Rocky. I'll def be in the Miata... I've been commuting on the bike a lot lately and I've noticed that the tires are wearing past the tread... Not trying to push my luck going up the mountain!

Also, I *may* have a buddy and his gf join us if that's cool. He hasn't got a rotary (he has a BRZ) but he's well mannered and damn fun.

The location is in the map, but here's the address:
7495 Iron Bar Ln. Gainesville, Va 20155

We usually park together out back for pics. Remember, departure is at 10am so get there early 9:30~9:45, otherwise you might miss us and have to catch us up.

I'm not going to bring my 7. Once she warms up it takes about 45+ seconds to start again due to constant flooding. I'll be coming with my friend in his e36.

I'm not sure how they managed it, but some people voted for multiple days. Which would account for the greater number of votes, then people speaking up.

I always allow for voting for multiple days, this lets you vote for all of the days you will be available to go. That way I can just choose the day with the (hopefully) the max attendance.

(It says in the description of the vote that you can vote for multiple)

I'm going to try and make it for breakfast tomorrow as well. I've got to get back and work on the FD to get ready for the track next weekend and deal with Elaine's car that threw the timing belt on Wednesday.

Good job Mike, sounds like you don't even need that new turbo. Here's some pics:











Thanks for coming out all, I had a great time and am happy to report no incidents this time.

See you guys around next time.
