For some reason I thought this months meet was in Atwater, maybe confused with track days C.S. was talking about. We're down for Visa though.

I would assume that the starbucks your talking about is on the south end of MOOney, Target/ Chilli's/ Buffalo Wild Wings parking lot. unless its the one next to autozone and 7-11.

Nice! Bonus points if you could do it as a haiku.
Really though, I'm hoping that the lack of a Furai concept model forces them to make a Furai PRODUCTION model. Toyota's gonna have the 86, MKV Supra, and LFA, Mazda can have in the same slots the MX-5, 16x-powered RX7, and the Furai.

Except "Furai" doesn't really roll off the tounge for English speakers, so might I suggest the name "RX-9999."

I just realized the Japanese pronunciation of "Furai" sounds almost exactly like "fry" in English. More tears.

I'm working again Saturday, but Pat may go. :/

In other news, Pat and I made hotel reservations for SS16 for Friday and Saturday night! Make your reservations now, before all the rooms are gone. With the SS16 hotel code, it actually lets you cancel up to 24 hours in advance, whereas most of the other codes require full prepayment for a discount (or pay $115/night instead of $80).

We'd be driving back south to get home anyway. But yeah, that's why I emphasized the word might.

Hey Donovan,
I'm in Modesto, (well Riverbank now) there are a few of us here. I currently don't have a driveable 7. My buddy Rob has a TII. Haven't been to a meet in a long time either.
