    It's currently calling for rain on Friday to wash the salt off. Saturday should be 45 and variable clouds. About as good as it gets for a chase the blues away party. Hope to see you all at Carlos's. Carlos, please PM me your address.

    I am still hoping to set up the slot track. It is 1/32 but may accomodate 1/24 I'm not sure. Though it is small I could never set it up permanently so it sees little use.

    How long was WETPET banned? I miss his posts.

    We should have an on-line VIRTUAL PARTY thread for WETPET to celebrate his return.

    Won't be able to attend, at least with my 355, as I picked up a broken blade piece from a box cutter (you know, those gray metal knife tools with the blade sticking out on an angle) in my left rear tire. The slice was too big for FoW to patch.

    I was planning on replacing the Bridgestone Expedia S-01s anyhow, as I didn't like the lack of feel of the fronts. I'm trying to decide between Pirelli P-Zeros (not Nero or Rosso), or Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s. Any comments out there?

    I think both are good choices. I've got the Pirelli's now but have had the Michelin's before and liked both. I think the ride in the Michelin's is slightly better and a little less road noise but more expensive (at least the last time I checked).

    Someone posted a comment in another thread saying he wasn't coming back even after the ban was over? I'm guessing that's where the "reconsider" comment stems from.

    Hi guys,

    I just got back from MIA. I actually saw a Porsche on the way to the airport with the tag "MIAMI". Yeserday I saw 6 Bentley Continentals, four were convertibles, and a Gallardo and 430 spyder out at night in the Grove.

    Right now they are saying increasing clouds till it rains late afternoon.

    It looks like a good and diverse bunch of guys coming. I'm really looking forward to it. I have to roll a car out in the AM to make room for the slot track.

    See you tomorrow!

    For those who don't know how to get to Carlos' house, I will be happy to lead a caravan over. I will be in the parking lot of Quince Orchard High School @ 11:45 and will leave for the GTG by 12:00. QOHS is located at the intersection of darnestown road and quince orchard road. PM me if you plan to meet up.

    I'm just not feeling that great today. I thought I might feel better once I got up and moving but I think I might me coming down with a cold or something so I'm just going to lay low today. Sorry I can't make it but don't want to make anyone else sick
