Sorry Blue, just got on.
Gates opened at Noon. Time trails start at 3pm-6pm. Race starts at 7pm(supposedly).
Yeah, it's always in that spot. I got wrecked into in that spot but it's the biggest and least likely one to get my door hit. I even park my Corolla there! LoL
I don't remember what i sell, but I hope they worked! haha
Sunday meeting up at Applebee's to kick back and eat off Trans Mountain if anyone wants to go chill. 3pm.
Here is the where the car hit me in my happy spot at work


All pretty again

I'll be there. I'll be the guy in a black '06 GTO that looks like Ron Howard in his 30's. lol

And is it the Applebees on the east side of the mountain by the Wally World?

Yup, been on here for a while Beto.
Don't worry Dan, we have plenty of 30 something folks but even more 20 something dudes to make u feel old! Haha come on over and stop in. We just kick back.
We have meets every 6 weeks. used to have them every 2 weeks but cut it down. We usually meet up at parks, resturants etc...this is the clubs 6th year going on 7 in january.
The myspace was run by our friend but he never really comes around anymore. I gotta get the password and update it. Thanks for the reminder.
It's the one next to Wal-Mart aka Wally World northeast location.
I started seeing the sticker "Don't be a Hater of JDM"

Default Hey

The funniest one I have seen is Jdm has nothing on my USDM. It was a cavalier with the biggest fartcan I have seen in a while. I may stop through today also.

Had a decent turnout. Some of the fellas couldn't make it.
Glad the GTO boys showed up! Made for a nice looking addition to the parking lot, ha.
Anyway, I want to have a get together in a few weeks, a small cruise then a BBQ for everyone. I know the f-body guys will be wanting to go. I have my friends from the local Sportbike club that wanted to cruise again with us. So l'm gonna try to get something together soon.

If the drags are open Friday I'll be there. Will be my first time with my new setup and 3rd time overall drag racing. They're open tomorrow but they don't give out slips which is completely retarded and not worth the time.

Yeah, it's dumb as rocks not to give a slip but oh well.
Hey Ron Howard? LoL jk, I posted it up on our board about a gathering and BBQ the 13th of June. That enough time to get you and your boys together for this??? It's a Sunday as well and then maybe we can head to the track for some fun(I know it sucks no slips but hey it will be a grudge match race!).
Everyone else from EP would be more than welcomed to hit it up. Head on over to the site, www.fbodyelpaso.org then click on the board tab for more info on our meeting for F-Body El Paso.
