We have about 3-4 foot of snow still on the ground up here. I've never seen snow banks this high this time if the year, it's ridiculous. Were supposed to be getting close to another foot on Friday.

The reason I want to sell them I because they weren't my style to begin with. I wasn't a fan of the all black look I just like the style of the CDM taillights. I was going to change the internals to more of a type s look but I don't want to open them. No I bought them from ack this way. He modded and sealed them.

Well that would require for people to be on time. Last year half the people showed up when I was getting ready to leave lol.

I'll take a pre and post storm pic of the snow.

Btw, if we r doing the group spot, I was told to cruise in as a group instead of individually. Now we still have 20 days to plan in prior to the event.

Here's a current comparisson picture from this month last year, and this year. I usually get excited this time of the year because golfing season is upon us, looks like we're still a few months out.

So I guess we all register separately, but we all go as a group. Meet up early and head out to MAP. Is this what we are doing.

We are all over the place, if you're lucky you'll spot one of us, lol. And it is still winter so many of us are in winter mode or parked in a garage somewhere.

Yes he is correct some of us are still in the garage waiting for the snow to go away. I'm hoping in the week when the snow is all gone to have my ride out. I can't wait. What do you have?

Okay so we have to make a decision there so far there are only four cars if that's all that we have them that's all that we have. We have to make payment I think we can all play separately and tell them we are coming in as a group. So is everybody agreed to this. We need feedback guys the guys that are going.

I took a look at the registration again and there is a spot to add a club affiliation. Maybe whoever is going we just make up a name for ourselves and put that in?

I'd probably be in if the weather holds up to be decent from now until the meet. The TL is still in storage right now, but I could possibly get it out mid-week since it's supposed to be at least mid-60's.

I'll use the MNacurazine group code as well if I end up signing up.

there is no discount for group. So it will be that 3 options we see on their site. Group spot is just for us to park together.

I just signed up $15 reserved parking. This is what I put down as far as affiliation. You have to send your payment though "paypal" to bill@maperformance.com as a gift and "your name B4B reg" in the message box.
Now we need to talk about a pre-meeting spot before the event and the time.

I still have registered yet. I guess we can register and pay on our own, then er gather how many are confirmed going, then I'll send them an email so they can reserve a spot for us.

Looks like I will be showing my winter mode lol.

Hey guys I hope all is well with everyone! I think it's about that time I wake-up White Heat from hibernation! I won't be able to start the mods I have planned for her this season before B4B, but you can count me in for the show! I live in Cottage Grove. Thus, we can meet at my house or I can meet you guys at a gas station when you arrive to CG. Just let me know which you prefer.

I've seen a either 1 or 2 different blacked out TL's up in the Maple Grove/Rogers area the past 2 days.. Blacked out rims, tint, etc.. Thought the first was Jorge, but looked like stock Type-S exhaust. Anyone know who they may belong to?
