I was thinking that, but i have driven one winter with just goodyear F1s and sandbags, so i will know what to expect.

upgrades.. got the CAI, B&B midpipe, greddy exhaust and underdrive pulley on already. might do the hks grounding kit and light weight pulleys all around.

i would say go for the CAI, not much gain...but GREAT sound... most cars lose sound from the intake once you put some dort of exhaust... but my AEM still hisses and has great front end sound... just careful on those rainy days, keep that pre-filter handy.

meet.... always up for it, but might be tight on scheduling. first day of vacation though!

if someone else shows up, sweet, we can go for a drive up 13 or whatever, nice curvy roads...

hope to see at least someone there...

6445 Wayzata Blvd, St Louis Park

Is that the one you are thinking of?

My fiancee would be all for it, Fudruckers is one of her favorite spots.

I'm game as long as it is later in the afternoon, i know i will be working until about three, and i will want to change outta my uniform.

does 4:30 sound feasible?

Xtremetreadwear, should I bring doughnuts again?

I made it, if only a little late...

Wish I could have made it earlier...
When is the next little MN meet?

I have a couple Ideas...there is a coffee shop in Lilydale that hosts a car show every once in a while, i'll talk to the owner and see what's up. What Cities do you all live in... I'll start with my town of residence, Eagan.
(maybe I can centralize a location or something)
