Cool. Glad to see there is some quick interest. I'm starting a new job next week and should have the Celica back on the road within two months. It won't look special, but it'll have that super-top-secret swap you're dying to see, Tom. I don't know what my work schedule will be but we can get something together.

I would like to have warmer weather (and to drive my Celica to this meet,) so I was thinking sometime around May. Or we can do it a little sooner and do a Spring meet then a Summer meet later. I'm good any time you guys are.

right here.

weekends works for me

PROJECT 6TH GEN<FS: Things up for grabs><Progress>
im down for weekend too. preferably saturday
I work M-F, so weekends are wide open for me as well. Hopefully we can get a big meet together for this.

Chris, I'd love to get my Celica to the Dragon. I should have it road-worthy before then, but I'd rather not test the car's limits on a few hundred mile run down the interstate, take it on the Dragon, then drive it back home. But keep me updated on the Dragon, since I know the IS is welcome there now. I may have to make an appearance, maybe be the camera car or something.

Hey I'd be interested in the meet this year smile.gif I've been throwing around a couple of ideas. Last year I went out to Toyota Fest in Cali and I'm not sure if I'm gonna do it again this year. I was thinking about a Tal of the Dragon/Deals Gap run down in Tennessee around memorial day...
ok so i just read all the posts here, st. louis? or starved rock? im for sure down for starved rock but im not sure about the 260 mile drive there plus the drive back. im just wondering.

Noberto was just saying that St. Louis was a closer drive to him than Starved Rock. It'd be cool if he made the drive to Starved Rock, but that's probably 10 hours one way for him.
