Maybe we can get a few of us to meet up for a happy hour somewhere to see the cars and discuss mods we are thinking of. What do you think?

Awesome, maybe we can get some more peeps involved.

I'm working on a list of stuff to do to my car. First and formost now is getting the a-spec suspension. I just don't want the a-spec wheels. Although I may have found someone interested in buying the wheels.

Awesome. More people in MN. Ok. I know we are going to be spread out and that timing isn't going to work for everyone. Would an evening next week work for everyone? 11th to 15th?

I could do wednesday the 13th; the rest of that week is full. As for where I'd say near a freeway and with a large parking lot seem like good ideas. If we're all stuck in ramps and on far-flung cross streets like we would be downtown there won't be much opportunity to check out the cars.

^-- Ok we go a vote for the 13th. Works for me. Let's go with that and see what people think. I'll try to PM some of the people I have ran into that are in MN so we can get their input. I'm not a native so I don't know a lot of places for this. My first thought would be Park Tavern in St. Louis Park (Highway 7 and Louisiana). Its a bar/restruant/bowling alley all in one. They have a decent sized parking lot.

Oh wait. League bowling will probably be going on and parking may not be as good. Any other suggestions?

Try to think of a place with a well lighted parking lot close to the building, and serves beverages with hopps (i.e. no wal-marts), and is in a central area in the twin cities. Speak up if you are under 21 so we can amend that hopps portion.

I went to college with a guy named Ry4an. No joke. His rationale was some people get tatoos, etc. that was his way of being different. U of MN-TC in IT. Same guy or just coincidence?

Same guy. I'd certainly be surprised if ther were two of us. Now I've got a Ry4an tattoo too. Which IT guy were you?

As for location, the closest we get to "central" here in the cities is downtown mpls or midway. Downtown Mpls has no decent parking lots, but Midway's not bad. We could meet at the Perkins near Snelling and University, which had good parking, and then walk to the Turf Club or any of the other bars near by. Since we're talking rush-hour times we're pretty much assured bad traffic wherever we go.

Doesn't much matter to me where, I'll make it so long as it's not out-state.

I'm down for the 13th....and yes, I will drive the TL in the winter. I've decided that my old car, the one that has a very picky heater, sucks to drive after driving the TL so much. Let me know when and where and I'll be there.

MN Meet location

Due the lack of time I have to look into a proper central location for us to meet. I'm going to chose a local one that I know of that should work out.

Date: Wednesday, December 13th
Time: 7:30 PM
Location:
Old Chicago
12300 Singletree Lane
Eden Prairie, MN 55344

The Old chicago shares the 1st level of underground parking with the Watertower apartments so hopefully there will be plenty of room in there. Prairie Pub is next door with a large parking lot and Jake's City grill is just across the street in the Walmart parking lot. I know I said no walmarts, but this one has a bar in the parking lot!

I know this may be longer driving for some of you but I hope you can make it. If this goes well and we have another one, then we should have enough time for a more central location.

Please post whether or not you are coming. If you PM me, I'll give you my email addy and phone number. We can always setup a group email distro for the meets as it will make communication easier.

I will also bring my digital camera (canon SD500 7.1mp) and a tripod for taking pics.

works for me

works for me; I'll be there.

So, where does someone w/o heated parking get their car washed locally during the deadly cold of our winters? I don't want to show up with a nice coating of road salt, but I don't want icicles hanging from the rear views either.
