Yep, done that too......C5 from Tucson (DMAFB) to Cairo West -- 18 hrs, 2 aerial refuels -- however we weren't in cargo seats so it wasn't THAT bad, but now that I'm a soft and whinny civilian -- I want business class or first class, warm food, and short flights.......I wish.........anyway I did get an upgrade for the LAX to IAD leg, but looks like I'm back among us commoners

on the 11.5 hr leg from Seoul to LAX.

Anyway, back on topic -- hope you guys have a great meet in MD, should be at next weekends get together....that is Labor Day weekend, do we have something planned?

I don't see anybody outside. Guess today is an off day. I finally got my car back from the shop. It took 3 months and the total came to $22,189..haha.

Holy $hit why didn't they just total it?

ZCarMan · 08-28-2010, 01:39 PM

And to all those from VA who came to the meet in MD today......oh wait, that would be NOBODY!!!

To all those who made it to the MD meet today, it was good to see all of you! Mexican for lunch was fan-freaking-tastic!! Five 370Zs for the first MD meet isn't bad at all. Now that I know how to get there. Next weekend we're down in Fairfax so lets show them Virginians!

Had a good time! Wish some folks from VA and from MD would have shown up. The location is good, though. The coffee was good (you could go to starbucks OR another shop), the parking lot wasn't full. It did get a bit hot out, and there was no shade. But overall a good place to meet.

Good to see you guys

Sorry I couldn't make it today guys. Had a hair cut and I was SUPPOSED to uninstall parts, but that's happening tomorrow. I will definitely make it out to the next MD meet... hopefully in my Mustang!

m4a1mustang · 08-28-2010, 03:37 PM

BTW, Jon, I think we really need to get on planning that cruise out to the crab place you were telling us about. We should definitely head out there while it's still summery!

Also, I'm thinking we're getting close to needing another Gordon Biersch dinner meet in Annapolis again!

Well, we could do either one of those at the next MD meet. We could hook up somewhere, even King's Contrivance, in the morning, and then convoy over to either GB or the crab place (I think that's Harris' ?). That's Sept. 11 weekend. Everybody up for that? Or we could even make that an evening event, a dinner thing.

I always found that it's easier just to meet up at GB since they are dinner meets.

But meeting up at your meeting spot before heading out to get crabs sounds like a good idea. We probably won't have to go far.

Steve, funny you should mention it. We were all talking about that today at lunch. I am in agreement. Just need to fix a date and then do it.

Right, $22,189? There is certain percentage that the insurance will allow off the MSRP of the car. :dunno:
