    Ended up having about 30+ cars show up last night, with a strong showing by Audi (S4's for days) and some aircooled VW's. Not too shabby for our second meet with plans for a third already in motion.

    Here is a link to a few photos. Be sure to join the group so ya'll can help pick out the next spot!

    We are going to have our third installment this Saturday. Working on some time and location, since we are going to try and have a day time meet.

    Join the FB group if you haven't already. I or one of the other admins will grant you access. So far up to 104 members, aircooled and watercooled friendly

    Lots and lots of activity over there, and will post location for our meet this Saturday soon.

    Why'd you make your meets on the same exact schedule as our meets?

    I mean, I'd sure love to come to a meet in San Jose... haven't been for a long time. But can't because your schedule follows ours.

    Yeah I've thought about offsetting ours by one week so that it wouldn't fall on the same weekend. That's just how it happened to line up for now. This next meet I think we will try to offset it so others in SKE can make it out.

    Good ****. I think we will be able to offset it by a week so it should fall on March 24th, then every subsequent being two weeks following. Now I just need to dig through my laundry list of spots and pick one

    Sorry about not responding to the last post. Most of us do all of our communication and coordination on the Facebook group:

    http://www.facebook.com/groups/286712918050332/

    We will be having another meet on April 21st. (Saturday) Time and location to follow, however I would suggest joining the group if youd like to stay in the loop.
