I'm not a party pooper I'm just old
lol.. anyways, depending on how everyone is feeling I'd be game but keep in mind um we'll most likely have well over 30 people if everyone stays till the end. That and some of these guys are coming up from NJ/NYC. So they'll have to drive back, hell as it looks right now I'm already putting up 2-3 people at my (soon to be) new house!

If you want to have a dinner that I shall leave up to you guys. I'll handle the day you handle the night. I'm sure WarCrunk knows a few place's that might be able to handle our capacity. Though be funny to cram all of us into a local mc'd's!

Oh moving out this weekend to be with the GF, going to attempt to put a list together of who needs what done and add it to the first post. Also, who has lifts, and spring compressors? More we have the quicker we can get the suspensions done. Once I finish with the house my full attention is going to be getting this meet planned out to the minute

sounds like this is going smoothly. As for dinner place..I say we all hit a nice local place in maybe the Burlington Area? I can get a reservation for like... 20-30 or something if everyone really wants to go.

If anyone is interested...resturants in question are:
Border Cafe
Chili's
Cheesecake Factory
Legal Sea Foods
Macaroni Grill
Rainforest Cafe

And in the Waltham area, right door is...
Chateau
Bertucci's (sp?)
Grassfields (DAMN good)

And in the watertown area...closest to the shop..But not that far from the other places..

Aegean (greek food)
Bugaboo Creek
Friendlys
Ruby Tuesday
Tin Tin Buffet (Chinese buffet..best I've ever had. Period)


If you guys REALLY wanna go into Harvard Square area, China town or Boston area....Let me know and I'll get you guys a list. Let the voting begin.

IDK, trying to get everyone organized with 20+ cars in boston just seems like a bad idea lol. i vote for a suburb eatery. i'm down for anything as i'm sure most of the 7 guys are, we all love food.

That we did hehe.. though stopping randomly on the highway was very scary lol.

Hey Ray thanks for popping back in on here. So far to my knowledge no bites on a Nitrous install unless someone is contacting you that I don't know of. I'm working on a plan to get some extra funds in my pocket quick (Re: My Random Collectors Crap + Ebay= New BHR Radiator!) since I'm currently moving.

If there are gonna be 20+ cars, the best bet is Texas Roadhouse in Everett. It's right in the Gateway Center, which can accommodate literally hundreds of cars.

http://static.px.yelp.com/bphoto/nSK...5EhJWSEU-Ctg/l

In that pic, you can see Target and its parking lot. Texas Roadhouse is the white square facing the Target parking lot. And look at all the parking spaces!

Less than a mile from Texas Roadhouse, you got Kelly's Roast Beef and Bertucci's in Medford. I'm not too sure about parking availability there (all free parking, btw), but it shouldn't be too bad.

How about Fireflys? Best BBQ in town. They have like 50 different hot sauces. Not including the one locked in the cage. Plus it's in Quincy, like 2 minutes south of Boston. Free Parking too.
