Hey George and Prospero, I just wanted to confirm we were still trying to do a get together on March 10th. I will post today on Brickboard if this sounds good. Drop me a line or post if you get a chance. Talk to you soon.

Thanks,
Scott

I may not be able to make it to this one. I must go out of town. I will have to drive back from Atlanta on Friday 3/9 and will not be in MD till real late. (650 miles) I will try my best to make it, but I will be late or not at all. Sorry to have to do it this way, but work must come first.

Hope to see you there, I will be in an 850 that looks like the swedespeed project car with tinted windows.

Why don't we do it a different day then. There are so few of us in the area who have started this, we ought to be able to find a date when everyone can show. Matt what's good for you?

 

[Prospero]

How about the following weekend? I have not made any plans, yet. Saturday 3/17 would be the best, but Sunday 3/18 is okay too. BTW, thanks for being so accommodating, I'm honored!

Prospero

 

[stkelly]

Sounds good. Is this date and time OK with everyone? 3/17 at around noonish at Rio?

I look forward to meeting you guys!!!

I will be free that day. I'll put it in my calendar. Anyone else interested in attending?

I know another R owner from Gaithersburg who I'll shoot an email to. Feel free to post this on the other boards.

 

[Prospero]

I have a guy that may come by as well. He has a 95 854 Turbo. Now, I'll do a "nice weather" dance to make sure that we have 65 and sunny! Thanks for being flexible! I'll be there.

Hey George and Prospero. Every thing is looking good with the get together. I've received about 10 e-mails from people confirming that they were coming. I think more will show up even though they didn't e-mail. Talk to you guys later.

Scott

Are any of you guys taking a camera perhaps? It would be cool to see some pictures! Wish you all a big turnout!

I'll borrow the digital camera from work. It's not a great one but it will do the job. If anyone else has one, feel free to bring it.... Talk to you later

I'll be bringing my digital camera and am working on having two cars there. We have an S80 T-6 on loan from Volvo for that weekend and I just need to work on having Paul Grimes (one of our contributors down) to drive it.

I'll cross post this in the other forums here on Swedespeed, and I'll talk to my buddy from Annapolis Volvo about possibly coming down as well.

 

[Prospero]

George,

If you need another driver, let me know! I can have Anelia bring my 850 to the GTG and then I will be free to drive something else.

Prospero

Matt, thanks anyway. The S80 may or may not come, though Paul has it for the remainder of the week.

Thing is, only he and I can drive the thing. We'll see if he makes it down.

 

[Prospero]

Bummer!

Maybe next time. Look forward to seeing you at the GTG.

I just got confirmation from a local guy I met with a red 855 R. He'll be there. I'll be there as well in my R.

 

[towerymt]

I'm going to try to make it, but I'm still not sure if I'll be there or not.

 

[Prospero]

See you chaps in about 24 hrs!!! Can't wait to meet with everyone. Any ideas as to a final count?

Prospero

 

[stkelly]

Prospero, about 15 e-mails from people saying they were coming. Hopefully some people who didn't e-mail me will come. I would probably figure on about 20 people including you, me and George. It should be a good time, now I just need to figure out a time to clean my baby!!!! See you all soon.

Scott
PS -- I'm bringing a digital camera with a notebook so I can transfer pictures when the memory card is full. If any of you want to bring a digital camera then transfer the files so you can take more pictures the notebook has a USB and a serial port.

Oh yeah, that reminds me. I need to recharge the batteries in my camera.

BTW, I know another R owner who'll be there.

 

[S.R.]

So, how did the meet go? Hopefully, it went well!
