It works fine for me and I see what you're talking about with the parking lot next to the roundabout. Will you have your duster with you? I will probably need to wipe some pollen off my car. Gonna give the car a good wash/cleaning on Saturday, but I know it will still be covered with pollen on Sunday morning :shakes head:

I agree on the earlier the better scheme. I have a feeling lots of other folks are going to be doing the same thing so even at 10 AM I'm expecting a nice line of cars.

And I'm pretty sure I was able to get those additional 5 spots. They wanted payment by midnight and I had already left work by the time they responded to my email but I still sent the payment first thing this morning. I should have a total of 20 spots.

VA guys - we need to meet at the Starbucks in FFX between 8:00 AM and 8:15 AM, then need to head out by 8:30 AM. It took me about 45 minutes to get to Nissan of Bowie the last time I went.

Jon, do you think an hour from the FFX meet location will be enough to get us to your location by 9:30ish?

As of now, how many of the 20 spots are still open? Might ask a few other people if they want to come.

FWIW, depending on how things go with my packing for my POTENTIAL closing this Monday, I MAY have to give up my spot. As of right now, I'm shooting to have all my packing done before then though, and I'm still in...

I'd hate to miss my favorite show of the year :-p

I'd say the last 5 I just reserved are still open. I got them just to be safe.

One of the guys from another forum confirmed. Can you add Trueblue to the list if there is a spot. He lives right up the road from the stadium and will meet us with the MD people around 9:30.

He has a 280z but I think he is bringing his other car. I'm not even sure what it is exactly. I'll just say its unique. Never seen another one like it. I am not even sure who made it. But he keeps it pretty clean :)

Anyone know what it is?

edit
its a cross between a ford, mercury and voltswagon :icon14: I never even knew this happened!
Its a Merkur Xr4ti

Yes, should be fine that time of the morning.

Yep, I'll have it.

Yep, I remember the Mercury Merkur......hadn't thought of one in years.....but yeah, I remember it. :icon17:

:tup: Sounds good. Thanks!

Guys know about the rain right?

Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on Sunday's weather.

It keeps jumping back and forth - says partly cloudy as of now.

Yeah it seems like the rain has jumped to Saturday. Is the meet cancelled if it does rain?

And now it says sunny...

Well it is looking like I may not make it Sunday...I am having some issues with the car (thread in the Forced Induction section). Hopefully I can get things straightened out by Sunday!

Are we (the VA guys) set to meet Sunday @ 8 AM at the Starbucks in Fairfax?


Where: The East Market at Fair Lakes Starbucks. It's right next to Kohl's and the D1ck's Sporting Goods.

12599 Fair Lakes Circle, Fairfax, VA‎

Welp, I'm not closing on my house this weekend, so looks like I'll make it to the meet just fine lol.

:tup: (at making it to the meet....not the house closing issue)

:iagree:

I hear Sunday is going to be overcast....hopefully that's true and the rain comes Saturday. Actually, I hope it doesn't rain at all but I'd take Saturday over Sunday at this point. :icon17:

I saw on the first page that you usually start packing up at 6. Will they let you leave whenever you want or is there a min. time that you have to stay till? I was looking at leaving around 4. Wasnt sure what the deal was with this event.

I just installed the gen3s and previously had the HPS MAF Tubes plus K&N Filters. I figured i would give first dibs to anyone coming to the event first if they were interested, before putting them up in the for sale section. $100 for combo with around 4000 miles on them

Yeah I doubt I will be staying that long. I'll check out the cars for while and then probably leave around 1 or 2.

Rain is likely coming Saturday night, and maybe some of Sunday morning. Rain dont stop me 'cause honey badger don't give a ****.

Hmm, I wonder if should wash the car tomorrow or get up early on Sunday and do a quick clean (after the rain). Of course no matter what I do the weather will go the opposite way.

Honestly I'll probably wash it (even if its during the rain) on Saturday, because a clean car in the rain is much better than a dirty one :-p

That and I dont get a **** if my car looks dirty at the show or not, really.

Probably wash my car and clean the interior tomorrow. Then probably some detailing spray Sunday morning.

Weather is looking favorable for the time of the car show. Game on, bitches.

My car's just gonna be dirty for the show tomorrow :p

I washed mine really quick, right before the rain. Didnt even dry it. Still looked good :-p

I might just wash it again really fast in the morning, but we'll see. What time and where are we meeting now, anyway?

Probably gonna run mine through the car wash real quick in the morning.

The info on where we're meeting is on page 8, it's "unknown road" just south of Nissan of Bowie. I'm looking to get there around 9:30-9:45, I think the general consensus is to roll out around 10 am.

Look back at Jon's post from a few pages back. I think it was Beech Tree Pkwy or something.

Use googlemaps and get directions from: Your location, MD to: Beech Tree Parkway, Upper Marlboro, MD. Where it ends you'll see a roundabout just up a bit. There is a parking lot right before it on the left as you drive toward it. I'll be there at 9:30AM.

Yeah I found it, thanks! See you there around then!

8 AM at Starbucks.....and no cleaning of my car. The rain can do that for me. I might bring a towel to dry it....that's about it.

So this thing is tomorrow? hmmm. Im most likely going to be meeting yall there.

Dibs on the spot next to Tony, so that my car gets tons of pictures taken of it on one side, by proxy.

:icon17:

I call dibs on the other side of Tony :D
