    When I used to have big e30 meets in Nj, everyone would bring interesting parts to sell or swap.

    Well, the city is giving us a hard time about the downtown location, because there are train tracks running across Water St. I don't see how it's that big a of a problem though (there are already cars that park on that street....they just don't park on the tracks.....) So, we're looking at the Romence Rd backup location and also another location on Westnedge, stripmall area, and there's a starbucks/barnes and noble and a Bilbo's Pizza / brewery, as well as a number of other businesses. We'll head down that area in person this week and see which spot looks better.

    What time do you think you'd be able to make it out? Bilbo's doesn't even open their doors until 11, so before then it's just coffee from starbucks/panera and hangin' out. And I doubt I'm gonna run right in and eat lunch at exactly 11. There's no set end time for this event. I still may arrange a quick cruise to a good photo op in the area, that probalby won't happen until like 2 or 3ish?

    Edit: The SC'd 540 needs to make an appearance. Not optional, you're coming! haha

    Hey, I've made a quick flier, feel free to use it and help spread the word!

    If I can make it at all, I can be there by one, I bet.
    It's almost a two hour drive from here. Two hour drive is absolutely no problem for me, assuming my back injury isn't giving me hell that day. Yeah, I'm middle aged.. Depending on what the wife is up to, how hectic the family business is that Saturday morning, etc. I might make it out there sometime before you leave to cruise to the photo op. I would love to meet some fellow Michigan car fiends. By next week I should know better. I have subscribed to this thread to keep in the loop.

    I just met Jim (with the Ducati) today in Kalamazoo. I was already planning on attending, but figured I'd drop by here and let you know. I know a bunch of the Kzoorice guys are planning on showing up, so I'm sure you'll have quite a mix of cars.

    Cool, thanks for the info, I actually tried getting on that site a while ago, but it was down at the time, so I wasn't able to register. I'm on there now though

    Edit: registered on kzoorice, won't let me post a reply? Anyone know how long it takes for new members to be able to post?

    It's ten days just to be able to read the off-topic threads!

    (Just got a pal of mine to sign up, and he is waiting...)
