We had lunch served on Dex's engine compartment because it was cleaner than a surgeon's instruments.

Plus, it looks FANTASTIC!!!!!!

ROFL - Looking at that picture again, it looks like a spaceship that should have been in Independence Day!

Dex's car is STUNNING in looks and performance - he's done an AWESOME job since I last saw it in October...

I didn't think I'd want the 2001+ rear tail lights 'til I saw them on his car...

Last one for now... we parked here and walked over to the Lexus dealer (Hendrick's) because their lot was under construction... the guy there was nice enough to give us Lexus hats.

Default Thanks guys.

Thanks for the meet Dave. It was a pleasure meeting everyone and I look foward to doing it again. We need to set up a meet that includes a drive to Deals gap. It's about a 4 hour drvie from Charlotte but it's worth every minute. Paul, Can you post a small pic on a website of my car so I can have a sig pic? If not, no biggie. Thanks again guys.

- Shawn

Excellent write-up! You had me there with you guys with the pics, and the commentary!

OK, guy/gals in MD/VA/DC, it is time to have a meet too! Every other area is representing: Guam, Cali, NC, GA!

Maybe a drive to SRT one Sat?!?!?

Thanks for the pix Bit, but it just bums me out more that I couldn't make it! I sure hope everyone had a great time, and hopefully we can do it again soon (and this time I'll tell work to kiss my a$$)!
