First I'll need to figure out what I can recoup from parting out the expensive stuff (exhaust, wheels, etc.) and then how much I'd like to spend on a more practical vehicle since keeping the TSX would be a de facto purchase. Anyway, I'm trying to decide all this stuff, but in any case I'll have the TSX for a while longer.

It's a 2006 A4, impulse blue with blue interior. Looks almost identical to the arctic blue pearl of my TSX.

Hey guys, I'm just waiting on Mark to reply back with all the other clips I took on his camera. I only have half the video done (from my camera)... He burned the vids onto CD since they were too large to send via e-mail. Once I hear from him and am able to pick up that CD, I'll finish the video and host it on here. Sounds good?

we need a meeting spot somewhere on the south shore so we can all roll together...im on the cape, so i'd take 195 down to RI. if you guys wanna roll down and meet near 195, that'll be cool, if not, we can meet where 195 and 95 merge...if anyone has any other ideas, post 'em up

You're not going to want to do the 195-95 split...

Coming from the cape, you'll have to drive past the exit for bristol before you get to providence, and then double back on 195...

Here's something I wrote about directions to the park last year...

It's funny, but the park doesn't have an address (that I can find). Mapquest won't give you directions to route 114, but if you enter in Hope Street, Bristol RI and choose, 1130-1138 hope street, it'll get you within a mile or two.

I'm in the area, and lived in Warren, RI (next door to Bristol), so I'd take a different approach to the park (from either direction), but it's probably better to leave my "shortcuts" out to avoid confusion

Nice... One of the CL guys was looking at the same color combo and sent me pics... It really looks great in blue...

It's funny how some cars will look great in some colors and terrible in others...

Signed/registered with You Tube, I'll be hosting the video on there as well. Also, finally got in contact with mark, meeting up with him on saturday to get the vids, I'll be down with the video around saturday evening-sunday once I get the chance. How big/what is the optimal size (mb) is best for you guys to view the video at? This is the first time I'm hosting

If alot of you guys wanted to meet together...there are two places that would work:

1. the BurgerKing rest area on route 24 south
2. the first rest area on 95 south after passing underneath 495

#1 distance-wise is closer to the park, in addition to also being a fairly straight stretch (better for pics or movies)



there is a chance I might not be making this one, since my gf wants to take me out for my bday..we'll see tho. if there alot of ppl go I'll try and change our plans so I can come by

LOL...not sure if her thoughts would be exactly that. Been cutting in on her time to head up to Blue Hills for some runs . Here is the link:

Those two meeting spots that Thierry mentioned sound good to me. We just gotta make a decision to see which one to meet at? I say the I-95 rest stop right after the I-495 underpass would be a good spot? I'm assuming we are going to take I-95 south to the park?? Hopefully someone will a better idea of where the park is can help us out!!

I'm sure getting ready.. in the middle of lowering the car as we speak! half way done .. hopefully, if possible, I'll have parts of the car repainted before the meet, either that or have the windows tinted

What mods are you guys planning on doing before the event?
