^ That works.

I'll bring a 35 pack water for all of us and can get some ice when we all meet up. I don't have a cooler, though.

Pot Luck = Food. We all bring something and have a small cookout.

Scott - Tent, table, paper towels, condiments.
Scott....you put 7:15 ? that seems late....I thought the gates open at 7:00am and Tech starts at 8:00am

Water is an excellent thing to bring -

They do typically serve burgers and stuff during lunch time - not unreasonably priced either -

Scott they have plenty of seating and cover and paper towels - but condiments seems like a good call if you guys are planning on cooking they have outdoor seating as well as indoor both on the upper deck and the lower deck -

- i usually bring a bag sandwich and drink water -but i'm down for a Z burger haha - i can bring some bunz if the decision is to grill

yeah maybe 6:15 would be a better time?

you talkin about that one @ 3600 E University Drive?

Ok let me update everything--

Time to meet--6:15--not sure what I was thinking for the time earlier. Mike suggest 6:15 and that sounds good to me for a meeting time to drive up together.

Where--There is a race track gas station on University(380) just east of I-35.
Mike this not E university, Its just east of I-35 but the address would be like 2800 W University.
Lets meet there. https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=W...=h&mra=ls&z=11

What to bring for lunch--
Scott- Tent, table, paper towels,plates, condiments.
ChrisF- Grill & Burgers ( no vegetarians right ? )
PatD- Dessert
EricB- Chips????????????does that work eric
Chris P- Waters
BenW- Cheese & shredded lettuce
Mike- Hamburger Buns

Dont forget -Cash only- your food and toy.

Anybody think of something else?

I can do chips no problem. If anything else let me know.

So I just did the finishing touch on my "control arm mod" and got it just right. I checked the alignment and I took too much out and went back to -2.2 on both sides. LOL

Gotta get back in there tomorrow and make one rotation back in and I should be about -2.4 and that should do it for a while. I sure wish I had an alignment rack or something more accurate than markings on a not-so-even garage floor.

I spent quite a bit of time in the garage today getting everything fixed up. Good thing Scott came and helped for a bit because that shortened the install time; Got a brand spankin' new Altima PCV valve out of it as well which is good for like +20 whp. Car's been freshened up and feels good, but we'll see how she performs Saturday.



LUNCH
Scott- Tent, table, paper towels, condiments.
ChrisF- Grill & Burgers
PatD- Dessert
EricB- Chips
Chris P- Waters
BenW- Cheese & shredded lettuce
Mike- Hamburger Buns

So apparently you have to have a heat shield or some kind of shroud around your air intake filter to pass inspection... Guy did me a favor though and said instead of taking my money just go to a hole in the wall place in garland and he's sure they will pass it.
