    How about meeting up at my place, early for lunch, let say 11. Its not very busy at all early in the day and the parking is good. Lunch will be on me. Unless you guys want to meet earlier go for a quick wichita drive and go "tunnel hunting" or anyone drive on mclean along the river then have lunch.

    Its always great to have car crazy friends to car chat, as my wife puts it, and good food to go along with it! I really think she's just relieved I've got someone else to "car talk" other than herself! Looking forward to the next meeting. Brian, now you've got me thinking alot about comparos and storylines! I'll try and come up with good ones! Maybe one of our meetings could be a "working" meeting at your upcomming shop! If you need help, count me in. What better place to have these meetings, than in a shop with fun cars all around! I will surely meet up with you guys at crescent one of these days.

    Just so you know, I HATE ANYONE WITH A RUNNING VEHICLE!!!!! (I may have a block defect; Arrow Racing will soon have the engine and I'll know more.) I would have tried to make it to the "lunch part" of the meeting today, but I got tied up on some other things. I'll be back in action before too long......

    Guys, I hope you don't mind some free advice....

    We have Saturday meetings on the first Saturday of every month here in Kansas City. We have been doing this for about 8 years and it has been a huge success. We routinely have over twenty cars attend.

    We have our meetings at 8:30AM at the Sheraton Hotel. We have found a breakfast meeting is the best attended. Lunch meetings carve out a big hole in the middle of the day and tend to conflict with family and home projects and have not been well attended here in kc. (kids ball games kill attendance!)

    The other advice I might offer is making the meeting place the same location every month so everyone always knows where to meet without having to be informed every month.

    i wish you much success!

    Chris Parr

    See you guys at Crescent Classic!

    Chris, thanks for the advice. We are starting to get a good group and may have to head up that way soon.
    Scott, thanks again for the great lunch....fantastic restaurant.
    Allan- we feel your pain...hope all will come out fine.
    Matt - still have that image in my head of you a Darell flying by me at great speed side by side...

    Just watched several episodes of 101 Cars You Must Drive.....we can certainly shoot a pilot espisode that is much better. I especially liked when they test the NSX and stated that it had a 2.0 liter that was then bumped up to 3.0 later....the least they could do is have correct info.

    I'm slotted for Kansas City, but if something should happen to fall through, I'm there!! FYI, if the Good Egg is really busy there is also a Hilton Garden in that does a good breakfast buffet right there (Just didn't want you guys to starve). Sounds like I'm definitely missing out. Wanted to see that 360 BAD!!
