Well, I'll get it started and others can add in..l.
Saturday at Kensington was perfect.
80 degrees and no bugs. The Sun was out and shining.
About 15 cars showed up:
Ryan (Crash93ssei) did most of the cooking but Peterg22000 did pitch in and help a little:
So we ate:
gweg_b, his friend and sonoma_zr2(he killed like a gajillion bugs on his drive in)
The "Booze " brothers looking tired after their long drive in:
Cheetah ( in the red) relating the story of WCBF with no A/C:
We all had to guess who this guy was, so you do to:
Chris and his little boy Ryen ( he played with my wife all day...Ryen, not Chris)
The "Crew just before leaving to head to Ryans:
I had a good time meeting everyone and hope to hook up with them all again in the future.
Crash thanx for the sound byte on the exhaust...I will be doing the HF Magnaflow Cat with the Flowmaster Muffler on my car soon..

I didn't make everyone guess....just those who have been around a while, so they should have been able to pick up on the clues. I was also wearing an M&Ms T-shirt. Thanks for getting my better side.
Cody, you actually did meet me a few years back at CEBF at the KOA campground. It was just a quick introduction, though.
I have a few pics that I'll post up in a bit, now that I'm back on broadband.

I have a crap ton more pics, but uploaded them to PB and can't get them to link... it says that the image or vid has been moved or deleted
As soon as I figure that out I will post up more pics.
I can say that it was great to meet everyone and that we could not have asked for better weather so far. Sadly though, it looks like a 60% chance of rain for the track day
Anyways, this is what have gone on so far...
Polished gweg_b's car, finished with two coats of Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant and one coat of Pinnacle Souveran wax.
Currently working on polishing WhiteArrow3800's car. Polished out the bad headlight, looks amazing.
Wet sanded and polished one of the headlights on Stephanie's '03, one more to go.
Wet sanded the older headlight on Petramans car.
Polished the tinted tails on Radomirthegreat's SLE, also had an extra trans mount laying around that we had welded solid and painted. It might be solid, it might cause some vibration, but it will definitely be better then what he has on there
Lots more to come too!!!!

I'll upload the few pictures I took (kept forgetting to take pics) hopefully tomorrow.
I don't know if it was the lack of sleep or what, but I've been feeling terrible all day, almost flu-like, so hopefully I'll be feeling better tomorrow and gather my pics together for uploading!!

I am envious of the room in front of the engine to work in. It looks like someone forgot to put in a couple of cylinders at the factory.

Ryan and Stephanie did a great job getting this all organized and set up. Thank you for your efforts.
Here we have one of Travis' better sides, 01bonne who provided the burgers, and 00ssei and friends.
Another side of Travis; gweg-b, and friend. And, can you believe that Tom actually reads the instruction book for his new camera?
Ryan starts cooking the food.
There are rules that
must be followed at these meets, one of them being that all chips must be obtained from a bowl...not a bag.

Irkwerks2, and his wife make sure that the rule is not broken. They also provided various brands of pop (soda, soda-pop, tonic, etc.

) Oh, and while we're on rules...there are wash-rooms...not bathrooms.
01bonne making sure that Ryan doesn't burn the burgers while he's chatting.
Hey, everyone....look over there!
Even entertainment was provided.
The arrival of Petraman.
And he has the group mesmerized.
Cheetah and 95SLE
The cars.
I would have loved to be able to head up for the buff and polish day, but I had other things that I needed to do. Here's hoping that Wednesday's weather will turn out as well as Saturday's.

I just want to say how happy I am to see and meet everyone. It went really good Saturday. I met a lot of great people. Things are going great here. The guys are fed and back to working on cars. They are doing last minute prep before going out on the boat. Rest and relaxation and do it all again tom.
Thanks everyone for such a great time and thanks for your comments.
