Well, bad news. We can't make this meet. The short version of the story is that some higher-up at work noticed me so in the span of a week I've gone from entry-level job to half a step away from one of the highest paying jobs. Anyway, now I'm working through the weekend now.

Damnit man, stop being so good at your job! That's actually fantastic news, too bad you can't make it. I was going to bring some tools and planned on stealing the 3MZ out of the Lexus and swapping it into someone's car in the parking lot. We could have used your help.

I'm off work at 3 on Saturday. I can load up in the Soup and make it up there for a Sunday meet slash stealig Joe's engine!

Lol. We'll steal his engine at the spring meet....if he still has the car in the spring. He changes cars like the seasons of the year.

So about that Spring Meet? lol

>

My car is too heavy to not have the 3MZ, I can't afford to lose the torque... Haha! Sean and I are still going no matter what, it'll still be fun. Dalton will come as well with his new surprise vehicle.

Hahaha!

.05 in of snow. be careful guys. better put some chains on those tires.

I have to pass on this one
Need to work this Saturday and will be hosting some Japanese folks
Whoever are showing up, have a blast and stay safe!

Repeat from Newcelica.
I can cook if I have to. I'll even grab a pack of fire wood at the gas station and we can all cuddle by the fire places.

Look at it this way, we'll have run of the place if it's a chilly day.

Also, I'm banning myself from any future meet planning. If we all go somewhere good for dinner we can redeem this meet. Giordanos in Minooka sounds good to me or the place I always suggest in Wilmington called Hayden's Crossing.

There will be three of us showing for sure tomorrow. We'll be there at about 11:30.

-Bitter from Newcelica+

On my way to work already. Have fun today guys. Stay warm and post plenty of pictures!

Radar shows snow. SNOW!

Are we really doing this? It's friggin cold....

I'm going. Z2's will be safe to drive conservatively as long as there's no actual ice or snow on the roads and temps are in the 30's at least. I've driven them dry at below zero temps, after about 5 miles the carcass warms to about 40F and they're OK.

We drive the Celica all year around so I'm not worried about safety I'm worried about how long are we going to want to stand outside when it's only supposed to be 44 at noon with rain/flurries..

I think I'm gonna pass on this one guys. It's too damn cold, and my white car isn't done anyway

Wear some long johns you big girls! Haha!

Sorry guys, we're both at the tail end of being sick and in these temperatures that's not going to help our cause. We're down to do dinner or something indoors but we'er not gonna come freeze outside.

so did anyone meet?

Turned out being a 7th gen meet. Haha!

Hit a deer!

You did Jordan?

And a squirrel.
I was coming up over the crest of a hill out of a steep river valley on some tiny little 1 lane road going about 30 when I saw a small deer, I slammed my brakes and swerved out of the way, there was a second deer that then ran in front but I was moving about 15mph at that point and it almost made it across...
-Bitter+
So there's a little deer today with a little bruise and I have a very pretty Celica.

You missed a good meet everyone, despite the cold. We had sassage, burgers, wings, chips, salsa, cum covered donuts, RC cola, Capri Sun, and I'm sure I'm missing some things. No hike, wandered around the Lodge and Visitor Center area a little, I narrated about the majestic and graceful Canada Goose, etc.

Jordan just clipped the deer he said on nc. He said the deer and his car were just fine, but destroyed a squirrel haha!!

So the meet went very well! The turnout was basically just 7th gen guys, but was very fun and had a great time! When we got there we all searched for the driest dead wood we could find. After we broke all the wood by hand and I used my small Leatherman multi tool saw blade, Mr. BRZ decided to bring out his hatchet. Haha!

It warmed up after a while and then eventually in the end the sun came out! It rained for me all the way coming down, but just drizzle when we got there. We got to see Jordan's friend's BRZ, my new thug mobile, and Sean's new WRX.

Racecarp showed up! And he showed up with very dirty wheels (picture below) lol. Old man had the charcoal going outside and the wind was so bad off the river that the full grill of coals quickly turned into a pile of dust the size of my fist. Since he couldn't cook without heat, we moved his grill grate to the very warm and cozy fireplace! I think we should cook with hardwood every time in the fireplace from now on, it worked very well!

Then after all that we took a drive up to the lodge. We walked to the river and Mr. Homeless Man (Jordan) got asked some park related question from strangers haha! Dalton was lucky enough to walk in dog **** while at the shelter so he had to wash that off so the foot well heat didn't blow **** air through his car on his three hour drive.

Here's some pictures, sorry this is all I got really...

Nice pics Joe!

Sorry we missed this one. We literally spent all day in the garage....
