All minor stuff

[popo8]

I think all sponsors should come to meet and greet! LOL

I would love 2.

I have the time off to do it, but the wife just does not get enough time off. Between the LTX SHOOTOUT, CRUISIN OCMD and holidays she burns her time up quickly...

Maybe if I can find a suitable replacement copilot. Lol.

LTXtech.com IS my drug...

Spoke with Chris Baker last night, and as of now, we are the only confirmed event that day...so no fighting for parking...

Was that an issue before?

Yep...it's springtime, and Baker's a a lot of bridal showers, barmitzvahs, and wedding parties. Really sucks when you are asked to reserve areas for "decorators" who would rather inconvienence 500+ people for their party of 30.

Chris has been really good the last few years steering people away from that though...

Well, I meant more of during previous M&G's, namely last years since I didn't attend.

So they're good about the M&G - that is a plus.

We have had a few years past where wedding people interrupted things, but Cris is a car guy to the core, and would much rather make 500 car people happy (who return at the same time every year to spend money) than a one-off bridal shower for 30 people.

And for those that don't know, Baker's may...just may...have the largest weekly repeating car show in the world every Sunday afternoon during the summer.

He said that last year, the Sunday numbers were up from the year before and were averaging 800-1000 cars...every Sunday...

Their first one this year is May 15th. Worth checking their website out for pics. You'll see everything from brass-light cars, to Aventadors, to Batmobiles depending on the day...

Hmm...I feel like I maybe remember...but maybe I don't. Either way, I would've been there, so maybe I just wasn't paying attention. Cars are a distraction, after all.

Backing up to Jewell Rd Drag Strip made me notice that - I'll stop halfway through a sentence to watch a car go by.
@JoeliusZ28 can confirm that, as we both did that when a blue C7 drove by at one time. Megan just laughed.

Just added car #4.

[landstuhltaylor]

I think I can make it so I pre-registered. Going to bring the CCWs with junk A6s to throw on the car once I get there. No sense showing it on the garbage transport wheels.
