Wolf190

I don't have facebook, whatever the heck that is... but let me know what time and where, I'll be there CAN'T ****ING WAIT

I've been wondering for a while whether my car is faster than a 300e, m103 or m104, becuase when I bought mine my next choice for a car was a 1992 300ce/m104. That brings up another question though... what kind of driving is this gonna be? I hope we arn't talking a grandpa/sight seeing drive

Sorry, no Facebook, Mark.

Just on principle - not disseminating info needlessly. I work in IT and exercise too much healthy paranoia, sometimes.

You know how to contact me. 20th is preferable, but I can make the 27th if we firm it up soon. Lets see how it works for the majority.

Thanks,

Sean


BTW, they are out to get us.Really.

Use OS/2! Be safe from everyone! Like I am right now lol

Also, wish I could join the meet :C

Bigpete123

Sorry guys, just realized it's a no-go for me on the weekend of the 27th. Totally bummed. Hopefully we can do it again some other time!

ZorroAMG

What about the 20th? Hakk still hasn't confirmed if he's gonna come anyway.

Hakk403

yeah, don't worry about me, I don't know when all my exams are done yet, and I'm not sure how much cash I'll have at the time. You guys do it when you want and if it works out for me I'll show up.

Bigpete123

The 20th might work. I just emailed the old lady (who is the organized one out of the two of us and therefore maintains our calendar) to see if I'm free. I think she might actually be traveling to a wedding that weekend which would be the best scenario.

ZorroAMG

20th of April guys!

Where? Bellingham? Vancouver?

berti_00

BELLING HAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM lol

Bigpete123

****! My wife will be in california that weekend so I will definitely be available that day. I think I'm gonna order a new grille online and the related paint supplies and get going on shaving and color-matching my grille (much to berti's shagrin!)

Bigpete123

Lol, I'll drag race you if you can find a nice straight, empty street to compare the M104 to the 103. But I generally am not a fast driver... It annoys the hell out of me when I see idiots on the highway during their honda GTG's weaving in and out of traffic like a-holes. So I would prefer a nice relaxed time that involves no accidents or run-ins with the law.

ZorroAMG

Exactly. This is a meet, not a nuremburgring dash.

190E 16V

What is the Mt. Baker run like? A drive into the Cascades would be nice I would think, with a bit of a view as well.

As I recall, there is Evergreen Raceway in Monroe Wa. Perhaps, there is an event that weekend - we could start or finish in the parking lot.

Americans, what's a good run out there? Whidbey Island perhaps, hmmmm???

Bigpete123

If we're meeting in Bellingham, Monroe wouldn't be a great idea... it would be an hour and a half drive down from Bellingham (although it's on the way back down to Seattle).

I would also say we should avoid ferries; just adds a little too much coordination to the whole thing.

I think a Mount Baker drive or something like that would be nice. But I really don't know the area up in Bellingham at all. That's Wolf's and MyFirstBenz's neck of the woods...

berti_00

i think we drive back seattle / monor and around that area... i dnt know about Mt baker... how far is that anyways

ZorroAMG

I will NOT ferrie Enzo. Period. BC has the state of the art ones and I cannot get my car past the loading transitions.

We should stay in Bellingham, this is more of a meet, go for lunch, chat etc than a full scale cruise/drive IMO.

190E 16V

Well, Mark, then I suggest a short cruise 'round that lake near there, Whatcom, I think???


Orrrrrrr

The State Park at Birch Bay is only 15 or minutes away from Bellingham and I saw the Pantera Club there one weekend. There is room to park and a short drive through town past the beach would run us past 3 or 4 pubs we could eat at.

The "Sandy Cove", I think it's called, pub and restaurant, has good food for sure.

Feedback? Wolfe, etc. ??

berti_00

yeah me too nooo ferries for me lol

but yah wereever that beach is would prolly be tight

ZorroAMG

That sounds pretty good acutally, 190!

Bigpete123

Agreed. No real need to drive long distances. I think it would be more fun to hang out, bullsh*t, talk about our cars, get some food, etc.

190, sounds like you know what's up. Let's find a scenic spot for pics and hanging out. Bellingham is a pretty area.

Bigpete123

Also, all you Seattle guys, we should meet up in the seattle/eastside area and convoy up to Bellingham. But I guess we have plenty of time to discuss.

190e 16v -

The drive to Baker is good, about 45 minutes, but I've been hearing they got lots of snow last weekend, so I don't know what it will be like going up the mountain. Whidbey Island has some awesome driving, and we can take Chuckanut on the way down! You don't have to take a ferry to get there either.

Lake Whatcom has Blodell Park which would be a great spot to meet, and lots of good roads around the lake, connecting to highway nine on the southeast side, then through Deming back to Bellingham and it comes out close to The Hilltop diner.

Birch Bay is a good place to meet but I think staying inland this time of year would be a better choice, unless we get some nice weather. Not to mention there is no driving to be had out there unless you want to do the 2 mile stretch of 25mph beach roads all afternoon.

All that said I think Lake Whatcom would be best because we would have a nice spot to meet, and if you guys feel like it there is plenty of good driving. But I'm not the one coordinating the whole thing... it's up to zorro

ZorroAMG

Oh, not at all, it's up to everyone I just wanted it to be a more chill cruise, meet, lunch casual drive more than "let's see who's m104 is faster than who's m103..." lol we all know how our cars drive....

Bigpete123

yeah, this isn't really about driving our cars around, IMO. But I'll do whatever.
