Saturdays are good too!!!! I like an excuse to do something in the middle of the week though...That is why I was such a regular at Porky's. :oops:
Let me scout out some parking @ BWWs, weekend deals may require a different spot. I figured a Wed stop would be fine out there though.

The parking is pretty jacked up at BWW's. On a weekend it would be way to hard to find spots. During the week I am not sure as I have never been there during the week. I say we have the first GTG at Rookies where there is plenty of room to park a pack of cars together.

Okay... how about 4/12 say either 5:30-6:00pm at Rookies on 63rd. That way we know the weather should be cooperating a bit more, and the majority of us will have our cars out... MITCHELL!
I'm up for whenever, but anytime after 4/7 (tuning at FLP) I'll have the TA. Any other time works too, but I'll bring the Iroc. Just trying to throw a date out there for people.

There is plenty of parking to the south of BWWs, Rookies is fine too. Hopefully there will be a place that holds a "cruise night" & we don't have to try to set it up...
BTW, the track rental @ kcir that was scheduled for last saturday was cancelled...They are now holding it Sunday, April 13. It is $50 to race all day on a well prepped track, with little to no wait in the lanes. There are about 85 cars signed up, there should be around 100. If interested, let me know & I'll get you the info.

Yeah I'm not a big fan of hooters either. Their wings do suck *** but the beer is good 
.
Any one know of a good place to get windows tinted in the Des Moines area? I need to get on that this spring sometime. Also, what do you all suggest I get percentage wise so I wont be hassled too much by the cops? My LT1 was only 3% or something over the limit and the ******** ticketed me a couple of times and I would want it a little darker than that. Will places tint it how ever dark you want it?

And for everybody that can't decide where you guys want to go, Jason and I are going to just start hanging out wherever the hell we want to until they tell us to move and we will just move to the next spot and so on. I could care less what the business thinks about it!

Go to Best window tint in West Des Moines off of Swanson Blvd. That is where I got mine done and I was very happy with it. I did a 20% on the back and 35% on the side windows.
And for everybody that can't decide where you guys want to go, Jason and I are going to just start hanging out wherever the hell we want to until they tell us to move and we will just move to the next spot and so on. I could care less what the business thinks about it!

I say the place that allows big smokey burnouts is a keeper
