    is it just me, or should we try and do a better job of parking cars on saturday mornings so that f-cars are together, p-cars are together, etc, etc...

    Segregation [of any kind] always leads to some sort of strife in my opinion.

    I remember when there was a fistfight at SR a few weeks ago when that Ferrari guy parked with the Lambo guys. That thing really escalated quickly. I mean, it really got out of hand.

    I stabbed a guy in the heart with a trident.

    I agree we should have specific parking...

    How many lots are there at SR? 5 or 6?

    Ferrari's in the back
    Porsche's in the upper level garage
    Lotus' on the other side of the movie theater
    etc...

    We'll take over the whole place!

    Glad you picked up on that. Sweet!!

    The ony reason I made it through that one is because I always remember to keep my head on a swivel when I am in a vicious cock-fight.

    Not to ruffle any feathers, but I wouldn't mind seeing "a better job of parking the cars," and I'm not referring to having model-specific rows. I've seen some LOUSY @$$ parking jobs out there, guys! When you pull your baby into the space, make sure it's *between* the painted lines - not ON them!

    i think this could be due to people wanting to park further from other cars by a few inches to avoid possible accidental door dings and give people room to walk around between cars. not that i ever done such a thing :D

    can't we all chip in and hire some hot nude models to park our cars for us? That really seems like the best way to resolve this parking situation.

    I think it would be somewhat complicated. A lot of people are still hearing about it via word of mouth so they may not know of the "correct parking". Plus the amount and makes go up and down each week, it would be hard to dictate who should be where.

    I think we should park by colors: reds, yellows, silvers, blues and so on ;).

    red-green is most common. can't imagine too many greens showing up.

    amusingly, two friends suffer from this, and i find endless laughter in giving them red tees for golf. i'm a good friend. ;)

    yeah... i know its hard to do. i am not that OCD about it. i just think it would look good on the photos: a row of ferraris, a row of lambos, a row of porsches, etc... at least i always try to park my porsche next to other porsches. and when i drive my bmw, i park across the street :)

    Parking by color works only if everyone arrives at same time, same goes for models.....we do this for car shows all the time but don't see how you can regulate it for a car meet!

    I showed up in my yellow honda last week - where do the Honda's park? :)

    Ha ha you made my day with that Bill. :)

    I remember a few weeks ago someone had a hand grenade. We really should work on the parking to prevent future incidents.
