There is going to be an Ann Arbor RX8 "Open House" with Charles Hill this Saturday Dec. 1st.
It looks like I will be there along with LoneWolf025, if anyone else wants to make the trek.

Meet tonight: CANCELLED
Meet tonight: CANCELLED
Hi all, I think this may be the first meet ever that actually gets officially cancelled.
There have been numerous accidents already and the roadways aren't going to clear up until later tonight or tomorrow when the temps rise. I just saw a car go sliding down the street sideways, so if you don't have to drive ... I'd suggest staying home. Of course, you are all adults (by age at least
) so use your best judgment.
If you have purchased a toy already for Toys for Tots, they can be dropped off at any Toys R Us or Babies R Us locations.

FREEZING RAIN...MIXED AT TIMES WITH SLEET WILL CONTINUE THIS EVENING. PRECIPITATION MAY BE HEAVY AT TIMES WHICH COULD LEAD TO SOME RAPID ACCUMULATIONS OF ICE.
PRECIPITATION WILL BECOME MORE INTERMITTENT THIS EVENING BEFORE ENDING BY MIDNIGHT. BEFORE THE FREEZING RAIN ENDS...UP TO AN ADDITIONAL QUARTER INCH OF ICE ACCUMULATION IS POSSIBLE THIS EVENING. THIS ICE ACCUMULATION WILL BE ON TOP OF THE INCH OR SO OF SNOW AND SLEET THAT HAS ALREADY ACCUMULATED.
ROADWAYS ACROSS THE WARNING AREA HAVE BEEN REPORTED TO BE ICE COVERED AND IN MANY CASES QUITE TREACHEROUS. NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPORTED AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS ARE ADVISING PEOPLE TO NOT TRAVEL UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.

got the email. stayed local and went out with friend in his car. got home and the plan was to use the garage opener in the 8 to get inside the house. both doors were iced over! thankfully someone was still awake to let me in. looks like i'll be having a fun time in the driveway tomorrow morning.
