:) Those 8 owners who have responded to the threads have said that this Wednesday, 22 December, would be a good time for to meet up in Fort Worth before Christmas. Since good pizza is hard to come by outside of the Windy City (lucky for me, that's where I am right now!), let alone CowTown, TX, how does everyone feel about Mexican food? There's an On The Border at Bryant Irvin and I20. Let's say...... 7:30? Gimme some thoughts and reply if you want to go so we can all see.

LOL. That's just funny. Stop at Gino's before you come back and bring me some f-ing pizza. Uhm.. now.. where the hell is Irvin and I20? Lol.

22nd is no good for me. how about the 21st I'll still be in town

We could do it on the 21st if that's better for everyone. My flight arrives around 7pm so I may be a tad late, but I'll take one for the team. And I just remembered--we were going to have the meeting place closer to the middle of DFW so more people would be able to attend. What about the OTB off Copeland in Arlington? (near Six Flags)

Ajax, what's the distance to Arlington? got a specific point for me to go to in arlington?

approximately 42 miles to downtown..

Just wherever you decide and whenever, let me know and i'll let you know if i can make it. dont make me (a guy comin from plano) the deciding factor for where you have a ft worth gathering, lol. Make it some place you all enjoy and is convenient for you. If i can make it, I'll make it :)

Hey there...I would love to go, but you guys keep going north from me. If you would do something on the south side of town...I would be all about that. BTW...enjoyed seeing a couple of you guys (not sure who) this past Saturday afternoon. One red 8 right behind me in traffic on 20 near Great SW Parkway with me...dirty (no time to wash lately) green in front of you. Sorry I took off so fast, moron on motorcycle acting stupid cut me off and nearly got himself hit...so I chased him down to tell him what I thought. One black near the Parks Mall, and one grey driving West on 20 between dallas an arlington. I was in 8 heaven for the day.

so looks like we have 4 going so far. i don't condone drinking and driving but some shots of patron are sounding real good!!!

Ajax
12-20-2004, 08:28 PM
Ok. good compromise. Only 36 miles from me. I'll try to be there but I might be a little late as traffic might be hectic at that hour. We'll see.

Okay, I'd like to go tonight, but my 8 doesn't like to play in the snow. The snow is really coming down here at lake lewisville. We'll see how it goes.

Mr. Ed's rx-8
12-22-2004, 10:27 AM
i'll still be there. just got to drive carefully. is everyone still planning on going?

dazygirl415
12-22-2004, 10:56 AM
Unless everyone backs out, I still plan on going. I only have one bridge (I think) to go over so I should be o-kay. Besides, we've got DSC to save us!

dazygirl415
12-22-2004, 11:19 AM
Which OTB are we meeting at? The one on N. Belt Line or Market Place?

Ok, as a warning, my 8 is a filthy mess. Usually I wash it religiously, but there hasn't been a clear 5day forecast in a month and just when it stops, I go out of town. I can say with the weather today though, it's slightly cleaner. :) I also caught something while up north and my voice sounds retarded. :(

My car is dirty too. I'm gonna try to make it, but depending on the weather I may not. Being as I'm from chicago, the only excuse I have for not driving in the snow is all the crazy texans.

My voice always sounds retarded :b

dazygirl415
12-22-2004, 04:43 PM
C'mon Ajax, I was looking forward to meeting you! Just give yourself plenty of time and you should be fine. (I'm with you on the crazy Texans though. They can be scary!)

jenkins-crew
12-22-2004, 05:08 PM
My car is a mess too and will still probably have snow on it (Never thought I would be saying that) I am probably going to be 30 - 60 mins. early, so if anyone wants to get there earlier, I'll be there! :)

dazygirl415
12-22-2004, 05:15 PM
Are we going to meet outside or inside? How do I know who's who?

Mr. Ed's rx-8
12-22-2004, 05:51 PM
i'll still be there...but unfortunately my car will be dirty also. i'll try to get there about 7ish. all i can say dazy is that i'll be the tall skinny guy with the big ear rings. but i'll PM you my cell and give a call. that might be easier. see everyone there!

jenkins-crew
12-22-2004, 05:56 PM
I will be the one with a wife and baby :D Black Jacket with navy blue addidas hat. Plus I will probably be by a tall skinny guy with earings :D

12-22-2004, 05:59 PM
We might say something to the Hostes about we are with the RX8 club and so they can bring everyone to where we are at.

Mr. Ed's rx-8
12-22-2004, 06:31 PM
thats sounds like a good idea too...

Ajax
12-22-2004, 06:41 PM
I know what Mr. Ed's looks like as I've met him at one or 2 of the irving meets. So he's who I'll be looking for. And big earrings, lol.. You've got your ears gauged! :b

Like I said, I'm gonna try to be there, lol. Traffic is looking really bad up to about 190 on 75 going southbound. Northbound (with rush hour) still only took me 20 minutes to get home rolling about 40-50 most of the way.

I guess I'll probably leave here in about 20-30 minutes. I just got home from work as it is.

Other than that, you've seen my picture so you should be able to spot me at least from about 25 feet. Haha.

Hope to see you guys there (you guys, not ya'll).

Ajax
12-22-2004, 07:07 PM
leaving now. Hopefully be there by 7:15 or so.

Well it was 4 of us, Dazy, Ajax, Mr. Ed, and me (Well the Jenkins crew) it was good and would do it again. Maybe get more people....and raise the temp about 40 or 50 degrees :)

Mr. Ed's rx-8
12-22-2004, 11:12 PM
well i wasn't trying to drive crazy, just show off some flames. i think i saw some good flashes in the side mirrors but couldn't tell.

i had fun and hope that we can do it again!

Ajax
12-22-2004, 11:20 PM
Yep. Was a good time. Only took me 45 to get home but i was driving a little faster on the way back. I had a nice slide out of the parking lot as I think I found a nice patch of ice and then the TPMS came on to let me know the tires were cold again. I was like, "oops!"
Anyway, it was fun and great to meet you all. Hopefully next time will be under better conditions and we'll have a larger group, and dazy won't be sick and talk more! :b (just playin)

dazygirl415
12-22-2004, 11:38 PM
