Greg definitely come through for this one. We always have a good time. As for the weather there are may restaurants in the area we could chill at after the meet. In the past we met in the rain and it was still a great time.

As for the Evo's they come from the dealer fast so there is no accomplishment there. What those guys do not realize is that our cars from the dealers come as a "Lexus". MUCH BETTER

Ryan,

I'll see what I can do. The other factor is that the car is currently in the shop. A high manhole cover and I had a disagreement the other weekend. The manhole cover won.

The body shop is supposed to be done with it by the "end of the week" so, I'm hoping I'll have it for Saturday. Otherwise, I'd have to "roll up there" in a rental Toyota Solara!

Apr 5 Saturday 40% Showers. Highs in the upper 50s and lows in the low 40s.
Let's just cross our fingers that the rain doesn't come out or holds off till the evening...

60s with possible early morning scattered showers. Only a 40% chance thus far. Are you considering rolling up for this Joe?

I can understand about having things to get done but dont not come because the car is not modded. It is about hanging out with the NELOC group not really the cars.

A bone stock Lexus amongst a fleet will beat out a modded EVO at any time. We stut down event with numbers, not necessarily modded cars. We did it at Carlisle last year, and we will do it again this year.

Schweet thought that was the case wanted to make sure.

Then if I am far enough along with my "project garageway" count me in. I prolly wont make the pre-meet though. I'll let you all know by tomorrow.

I have a general question...I installed a brand new Lexus battery in the SC400 in Oct. Went to start the car on Tues and would not turn over. Can a brand new battery lose it by just sitting around? FYI...Car is very infrequently driven.

This is possible, do you have a charger? If not try to jump it and make sure the terminals are making good contact.
