Great to meet everyone from the area last night. Sorry I missed the cops last night. We need to setup another meet during the day and with plenty of parking so we can all park together and get some great shots. I like the pics of last night, great job. Nothing wrong with those pics. Gotta go........Let's Go Giants!!!!!!

Thanks to everyone for coming out last night. It was good to put some faces to usernames. The turnout rate was probably the best ever considering it was less than a weeks planning!! We'll set up another meet when the warm air is in place.

It was great meeting everyone (or seeing them again). I missed a couple of folks due to being late ...but I'll blame them for leaving early .

And pics were taken after I showed up...so where's my car? And no, the passenger door in the background of a pic doesn't count.

We definitely need a day meet in a more secluded/less populated location to allow everyone to park together...and so the cops don't hassle us.

DL - were you at Fox and Hound after the meet? We went there and saw your car out front...looked for you inside, but didn't see you.

bearcat - I still can't believe you left.

ACCURATEin - D's directions were great...guess she wasn't too mad at me . You guys should've come; they had the UFC PPV.

blokhead - checked out the United Abominations CD yesterday...pretty good. I didn't really like the A Tout Le Monde remix, though.

godfather - that had to be one of the best looking TSX's I've seen.

Pleasure meeting you guys in real life (as opposed to this pseudo life on the internet). Seeing and hearing your cars was very informative. I did like the Greddy exhaust. it didn't sound that loud from outside the cars. My next effort is a bit of a drop...

CP's parking deck or UNCC. Both offer good places to take pics, cruise, and go for a couple of beers afterwards.

How about some time in April or early May?
(Weather would be a little nicer, except for the pollen. Plus it would be a nice time frame before college kids went home for the summer)

I vote for a weekend that my fiancée is working. She's living in Columbia for her residency and if she's off, I'm visiting her.

1) Half of these people don't drive a 3G, and therefore aren't in the 3G forum.

2) You started it at night, when most people aren't on here.

3) It got locked, so we can't respond now.

4) You've got this thread.

I saw the thread you started but had a feeling one of the moderators might lock it. Some threads they let stay open, but usually if it doesn't pertain strictly to the TL it will be locked.

Maybe the TSX guys need some motivation to get you guys out to the next meet. Considering the TL guys are pissed that there is a lack of aftermarket parts available for the car, and the fact that the TL had the largest showing at the first meet, maybe the TLs guys should set the date for the second meet.

...so show us how many TSX enthusiasts there are around the area! And then we'll talk.

BTW - Local SCCA has an AutoX March 29th and 30th if anyone is interested. You don't have to be a member.

March 29 - Novice School - Continental Tire
March 30 - CCR AX #2 - Continental Tire

Non-Member Cost for both days should be ~$65. For one day ~$35.

I am planning on going just for the fun of it (I've never been before). If anyone else is interested, PM me, and I'll send links for information.
