SupaRookie's little brother here...AcuZine_Rookie!!
I've been browsing for quite a while now. So I finally took the leap and signed up for the FORUMS baby. Too bad my stupid brother took my signature "Uncle Bobby B baby."
There's finally a meet so I want to join the club. I'll be there, sign me up.
Also, Eric...RSVPed for the chilli's saturday night. The addy for that place is...
Blakeney-Chili's
9730 Rea Road
Charlotte, NC 28277
704-543-5353
right?

Thanks for the heads-up Chill!! Can't make it this weekend though. Got the MSF class all weekend.
Even if I could make it... not sure I would... our competitor has a place in there (Cold Stone Creamery).
Our new shop is opening next month... so if you guys are willing to drive a little further south on Providence for your next meet (towards Waxhaw), there is plenty of room in the parking lot at Cureton Town Center and we can set something up for discounted ice cream.

Left off the ramp (that's Providence), left into the Promenade at the Exxon/Mobil station.
Straight into the shopping center then at the 1st Round-About go right. Starbucks is on the left corner at the next Round-About.

Bearcat - thanks. I met up with Eric yesterday and he gave me similar directions. Now I just have to remember them tomorrow night...I am kind of old and tend to forget things. 
jb - no problem. Ice cream does sound good, though
. Does MSF have to do with Marble Slab? If so, I like that place...I usually hit the one at Park and Woodlawn.

.BTW, we own the one on Park and Woodlawn too. Ask for Denis next time you're there. I'm typically only around during the day for a few hours, but can't hurt to ask
And below is the link to my thread in Car Talk about the truck. So if you see it around Charlotte and surrounding... it's me

Easy mistake for someone like me. Figured you might be going to a training class for the business.
Will do. I'm usually only there at night on weekends, but I'll keep it in mind.
Pics are blocked at work, but from the comments I gather it's a MS FJ...shouldn't be hard to spot around town. Does it play "Pop Goes the Weasel"? Sorry, had to...

^ LOL, yeah, I can see the mixup. That's pretty good word association. I hadn't even thought of it
I'm usually not around the store at night or on the weekends, but if you're there earlier, ask for me. And yes, the truck is a blue FJ Cruiser with ice cream cones and logos on it. Can't miss it

ACCURATEin i see that we're meeting over by starbucks but where should we park at. i usually have to drive a lap or two around that place just to find a spot during the day, maybe night time is less crowded?
ps i might be bringing a rival....G35 guy with me lol. he wont be driving of course but might be riding shotgun with me, he needs to feel the pain of not getting a new TL- his second choice hehe

^^^I was telling Eric about that last night. Don't worry, I know he and I will be there. Of course, two other cars isn't any better than last time...looking forward to seeing you again.

The SUN is SHINING already gentlemen! teinCL is on his way down to charlotte. We will probably go ahead and wash our cars this evening and get them ready for the meet.
I have a good feeling everyone will show up tomorrow, with maybe at minimal one or two members backing out.
Has anyone gotten in touch with mbdurham? (wdp TL on volk gt-c's.)

It's about 190 miles to Charlotte. I figure me and the warden (since she thinks it's her car anyway) would make a night of it. I've got a baby sitter lined up for the kids, and it's probably about a 95% chance we'll be there, gotta find a hotel. Hopefully the embassy suites isn't booked up yet. See ya'll tomorrow.

Glad to meet everyone. Sorry I couldn't stay longer, but wanted to drop in and say "Hi".
BTW = Who's Orange CL? I've seen that car around the Ballantyne area a few times.

I think almost everyone came out to the meet yesterday. It was a nice to meet most of the forum members and especially see all their cars. We stayed until the cops drove us out; almost got citations...hehe
Someone took pictures of the cars. If they can post it up here, we'd greatly appreciate it.

I didn't think it was that cold either, but my wife on the other hand... shit, she was still cold after we stopped and had a beer and went to hotel, had to turn up the heat in the hotel room to 78. It was nice meeting everyone last night.
