Man, that's going to be a lot of cars. I'll be happy if I get to claybar my car, and at least one coat of wax.

Alright, here's the fifnal list of attendees as I have it. This is gonna be....interesting to say the least.

Mike (350Z) mdracer76
Jess (350Z) jerster7500
Juan (350Z) valdeztke
Kelly (350Z) kcobean
Mason (350Z) gunser
Jason (350Z) SimplyJ
Puria (G35) pdjafari
Casey (350Z) sp0rtlyfe
Hugo (350Z) stillnz
Alain (Bringing the van ) INDECIS
Ry (G35) Byrnie
Steve (Black 350Z) EnthuZiastDrive
Brett (350Z) ArlingtonZ
John (350Z) Glide
adrenilan (350Z) (Sorry, I don't know your name yet man!!!) (Possibly +1)
Bob (something with a Z in it) Aurora40

That's 17 people!!! Now of course not everyone on the list will show up (that's just the way it goes with these things), and some people are not coming to work on their cars, so here's what I'd like to do:

I have room for one in the Garage (That will likely be Juan's car since it's in for major cosmetic surgery), three in the driveway if we pack 'em tight (and we can slide the canopy up and down the driveway as needed), and if we park nose-to-curb, we can probably fit about 6 or 7 on the street front in front of the house, that gets us to around 10 or 11 cars parked. If you're not coming to work on your car, or if you're not bringin' a Z, I'll either have you park in the middle of the circle (we'll have to see if we can do this without pissing off the neighbors) or away from the house a bit (still in sight, of the house, but on an adjacent street with lots of parking).

Once we're all done, I'd like to get a group photo or two from a high-angle (I have window access to the roof of my garage).

As mentioned, if you can show up pre-washed, that would save alot of time, but if not, we have all the necessary stuff to wash your car here.

We'll have the grill going with burgers and dogs, assorted drinks and chips. If you have anything in particular you want to grill, you bring it. If you want beer or other alcohol, you bring it. We'll have the cooler outside and you can put stuff in the fridge.

See you all around Noon!

Juan, you need to be here just a little early so we can get you in the garage before we start filling up the driveway.

When no one says "dude, that car is hot" when I pull up in the 'S', that's when I know it's sooo hot that they are left speechless.

Hey guys,

Hope to make it next time.

I just want to take a porter cable to my sideskirts... I won't be doing much else so my car shouldn't take too much time. I'll wash it at my apt in the morning and maybe put a coat of zaino on it. Then I'll just sit around and drink some beers (or diet coke - depending on my hangover) and watch the rest of you fools work
