Hey, Sheila and Ron told me to say that (and I know it'll be at least a couple of hours before Airgate gets home to fix it)...

I just wanted to thank smmcoy, Ron, airgate, and Kazu for a wonderful lunch, drive, u-turn clinic and dinner tonight.

Although I wish more Charlotteans (that right?) would have come out for what turned out to be a nice, dry drive thru some of NC's less populous areas, Mommy and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

We have to do it again when I'm here next.

Plus, the Matthews cops didn't put me in the klink for the night!

 

Wasn't Brett there? I thought I saw him during one of our u-turns. He always says he's going to come. I'm sure he did!

Thanks for getting this meet started Gregg. Good to see you all again and good to meet you, KAZU and Loraine. The weather gods were good to us. Let's work on the navigation gods next time around.

Sheila and I had a great time. Let's get the Charlotteans (you got it right, Gregg) and the western North Carolinains together more often. Dragon anyone?

Here's to beef on weck, dry roads, cops being elsewhere, wrong turns to good roads, u-turns that work (the second time, Airgate), extra olives and S2000 gun racks.

See you next time, guys (except you Brett)

Ron

 

I wish that I could have gone. I had to spend the day looking at new cars...arghhh

 

Here is part one of some downsized and compressed pics of some of the action. If anyone want's a full-rez version of any of these, just let me know. Hope you can join us next time taylor.

We gather at the Township Grill before the run for some Beef on Weck and Killer Wings:



Here are two silver cars, the Silverstone and the Sebring. Can you tell which is which?



Why Gregg will never own a Mugen seat:



With all this nav gear, we still set a record for U-turns:

 

Part Two:

In the Uwharrie:



Still in the Uwharrie:



And here we are in Troy:

Here are the Drivers and their cars:



And since Gregg was there, the moon was out:



Great time, guys. Anyone who wants to buy the pics I didn't show, I'll negotiate price by eMail.

High Revs, Sunny Skies, Cambered Curves

 

Thank you very much smmcoy, Ron, gregg, Loraine and airgate.
I had a great time.

And thanks for great pics, Ron.

And sorry about my English.
I will learn English harder than before.

See you next time, guys.


KAZU

 

Hey KAZU, I thought your english was better than Gregg's. It's better than some of the folks I work with for sure.

Keep coming. The best way to improve your English is to use it and if you can understand this group, you can understand anyone!

Ron

 

Thanks everyone for a GREAT time!!!

I got into New Bern last night around 1am. . .not bad!

I really enjoyed the conversations we all had and meeting up! The drive was excellent! Even with all the U-turns. . .

Really had a good time and eveytime I look out my windshield, I remember it!

Here's a teaser pic with a link to the rest. . .enjoy!!! Sorry, no pics of the moon in my shots!

Hey Airgate, nice pics! I especially like the "graphics" effect. I had a blast Saturday. Let's do it again soon!

Would you mind emailing me a copy of numbers 1, 4 and 15? Thanks!!
