we need some rain right now, but it really has little impact this early in the season. More so when we get into June and through August

Looks like there is not a set schedule yet? Since they are saying possible showers Sat, what amount would cause us to cancel? I spent a bunch of time hand washing/polishing/waxing this weekend so I am praying for good weather.

I've noticed that the weather.com site is always a day early when the prediciting weather. I'm thinking that we will have 72 and partly cloudy weather on Saturday. Of course I was one class short of my PHD in climatology. Who knew it would have paid off someday!

It isn't turbo'd as it isn't really worth it after seeing some of the numbers afterwords. I still think it would be fun though. I have some buddy club wheels coming this week for it, and hoping my tint guy can get me in this week as well. I have a few other small goodies for it..... it isn't a high HP rwd sports car, but it is a fun little car

Aaron, is it the minneapolis tourney? If so, what's his team name?

Is there a set schedule yet? Just trying to get an idea of what time we will be meeting, heading to Redwing, and coming back.

I think the plan is to meet up at Dave's house around 10 or so and then try and get out on the road by 11. Head down to Red Wing via the route on Dave's map. Roll into Red Wing around noon or so, grab lunch somewhere and then do some photo shoots. From there I think some of the guys are going to cruise back to Dave's house to chill. For anyone intersted I am going to head down a little further to Wabasha and then hit up the twistees on hwy 60 like we did for the cruise last spring. From there we can back road it back up to Dave's house. It would be nice to hit up a few photo shots on our way back as well. I figure all in all we should be back at Dave's house around 2-3pm. Here's hoping for good weather.

They're a couple of guys or maybe one guy that lives in my area (St. Michael). Does anyone want to meet up meet up and roll together? If not I'll need you address or directions on how to get to your house Dave.
