Ok so lets get a beer/car get together setup for this weekend if anyone is interested. I am finally free for a weekend so either Friday or Saturday is good. Going to watch the PSU game on Saturday so not sure if I could get a place in the South to turn it on so maybe a evening would be best. I am thinking either maybe Duckworth's as they have good beer and good food. Taco Mac used to be the place to go but honestly sick of their menu after going so long before. So curious to see if anyone is interested.

There are a lot of PSU fans here; I don't think you'll have trouble getting the game turned on. Agree on TM. I'm down...Friday or Saturday afternoon work best for me.

Oh, took a couple of pics of the car when I picked up GTA last night...stupid mobile gmail wouldn't let me send attachments 
. And of course, once I got home the priority was GTA, not getting pics off the phone. Yeah, life's hard.

Anyone interested in hitting up the new Duckworth's in Huntersville or is the ones further south the preferred locations?

The new one has four large garage doors that open the bar to the outside which is pretty sweet.

As for a location, Huntersville is somewhat far away for me. If that's the one everyone chooses, I'll still show up. Otherwise let's find something closer to downtown/south park/ballantyne area.I've got something to show off too

Duckworth's Ballantyne 7pm. I will see everyone there. Convoy to the new cookout if it's open for milkshakes afterwards.

Guys try not to hit too much vtec with these excellent driving conditions.
On the way back from harris teeter last night I decided to beast 2nd and 3rd gear for an instagram video. When I was done with 3rd my V1 started going off and saved my life. Two cmpd cars were parked in the entrance of a neighborhood where I have never seen them run radar. I thought for damn sure they were gonna pull out and come after me, but I must have reduced my speed enough before they could get a reading. I SLAMMED on the project mus and all of my groceries in the passenger seat went onto the floorboard lol.

This weekend would be a good one. Would love to be able to get together when you make it up but I probably won't have a free weekend till Oct 26th weekend after this one.

I appreciate the consideration but do it next time! As long as I can have it about once a month, I'm happy. Mitzi and I went last time I was in town and I got the all you can eat brisket again.
Did you know that you can swap out any meat or side as long as it's cheaper than the original ordered? I think next time I'm going to get beef the first time and then sliced turkey the next. nom nom nom.

Met an cool middle aged retired dude from Cary yesterday he used to work for IBM. And couldnt have been older than 55.. I bought my new radar detector from him. He had a 4g tl and said he had a 3G tl before it and loved it much more than his 4g. Even got the blue light edition of the detector to match the interior lights of the 3G tl... Pretty cool.. He also showed me his new Escort MAX that he upgraded to and that thing is badass!!! Wish I had that kind of money

Yeah! Its the Escort 8500 which isn't amazing or anything but definitely better than nothing plus I got it at a great price of $120 and the guy helped me set all the settings on it.

You know one of the reasons these stopped Eric was you wouldn't drive up my way once every 3rd or 4th one. Always have to have them nice and close to you.

We can do Ballantyne this time though cause I think it has a better parking situation than Park Road does.
