Connor the car sounds badass, I saw you last night on south willard. How was that auto-x?

Thanks dude, when I realized it was you I was already past you. The auto-x was awesome, got 1st in class, 7th overall! Not bad for a big heavy sedan haha

[dandongus]

Welcome Dandongus!!!

How about a cruise down to BAV Auto? I am all for leaving fairly early on Sunday Morning!! Let me know!!!

sounds rad man but im so busy with work/school that my weekends are never really free..
but your e30 in your sig pic, i like.. a lot.

[Firebird400]

So who's going to Bav Auto this sunday? Are we doing the same insane 4 am drive as last year?

[KUSA325is]

i am, i will aready be in the area though. cant wait.

[vtmless]

maybe not 4 am, unless some of you guys wanna hit the braintree meet again first, but i was thinking of just hammering b-line down to bav at 6 or so?? first ones on the property usually make it around 7 or 8 and to park on site we normally need to be there before 1030 or so

I've been reading threads on other boards and it sounds like the Bavauto thing keeps getting bigger and has potential to be huge this year. Last year someone there at 6AM was 50th in line. Sounds like if you want to park in the lot you need to be there before 7AM, perhaps earlier.

[Hendrik]

I think we will do the 4am drive, but this time we will just go straight there! Who is in for a cruise from VT? PM me if you are interested and I will give you my cell #. Super stoked for this trip!!

[vtmless]

your all gonna kill me but i think i am backing out of a early risers trip, its gonna be a hella long weekend for me, so i am just gonna leave 8ish on sunday...and my vagina is a tiny bit sandy...sorry

[vtgti]

I'll be there early.

[Hendrik]

So, Jay will get his shit together and I will prob end up driving his sleepy ass anyway in his car!
Here is what I am thinking,
Meet up @ the Staples parking lot off of Williston Road right next to the 89 @5 am. That way we can depart 515-530ish. That puts us in Portsmouth (Bav Auto) around 8am. I know connor has a V1 so he can lead!
Last year we left waaay earlier and went down to boston to meet those guys and cruise up, not worth the extra early start imo. Anyway a bunch of cruises are converging before bav anyway so we will see them en route. PM me if you want my cell number to ask any ques! I am also going to start a VT BAV cruise thread in the NE forum. Hope to see you there!!

What's up guys... xmas present to myself, 17" Rial wheels for the 328 snow set. I never liked the stock (style 185) and these were only $600 from tire rack. (My stocks are for sale - 17x8, ET34, 7-spokers... Automaster says a couple of them are slightly bent but they look OK and hold air etc. PM me for details if interested)

I've been having fun with all this snow and xi+DTC mode
