    Dude I'm going!

    But 5:00 at Hooters is going to be tough to make from Ft. Worth.

    Hey Altiain are you bringing you better half to the car show?

    6:00 at Hooters works better for me as well, I just figured everyone would want to get to the car show as early as possible. How does that fit with everyone else? And we can certainly go somewhere besides Hooters. My better half -- who is coming (thanks for asking :P ) doesn't really like Hooters. But I told her ya'll wanted to go! If there is somewhere else that that folks want to go, that's fine with me. Heck, a $14.00 hotdog at the Car Show is OK with me...

    From the Poll results, we should have at least 8 Metroplex Miata people along for the fun.

    Holly Cow is this a sign of the apocalypse! I didn't ask if you lovely was going to attend since normally she doesn't like being seen in public with you!

    Now I have to bring IMVivid, guess I'll have to buy her some shoes!

    Babysitter. Annika (5 year old daughter) would be bored out of her mind after the first 30 minutes, and Ethan (6 month old son)... well, it's risky to take any 6 month old anywhere for too long.

    So it'll just be Susan and I. It is kinda funny that she wants to come along. She's not that interested in cars in general, and she's not interested in ever doing any "performance driving" -- like AX or track days. But she really enjoys the Dallas Car Show for some reason. We've been every year since we got back from England.

    Actually, it looks like I'm out completely. One of my lovely professors decided to dump another test on me for Friday afternoon. Why not? We've had one on three of the last four Fridays, might as well continue the trend.

    Side note to Miatamaniac92 - try to avoid getting Dr. Mills for Design I, Design II, or Manufacturing if you decide to follow the ME program. He's a royal idiot.

    Kestrel I'm glad your wife is going to join the gang. Your like us we go to the Tarrant County Auto Show every year. It's nice to see all the new rides. But I'm going to tell your wife it was your suggestion to go to Hooters.

    It won't surprise her... she knows I like their wings.

    No, really. :)

    I'm serious.

    It's just for the wings.




    Kidding aside, maybe there's a "better" option. Perhaps we should just plan to meet at the Convention Center (around the Mazda "booth"?) at 6:00pm or so. Those people who are hungry, can pick up a fabulous Convention Center hotdog. Then perhaps after we get tired of hanging out around new shiny cool cars, we can hit a restaurant/bar for some late evening refreshment.

    What do you think?

    OK, here's the "final decision" (well, someone has to try to herd these cats ) :

    Meet inside the convention center at the Mazda booth at 6:00pm.

    You are on your own regarding dinner before the event. We may still go somewhere after the event, but we can decide that once we've been at the show for a while.

    I'm looking forward to it... see you there!

    Look for some familiar faces.

    Some of us are meeting down there tonight. I think our plan is to meet at the Convention Center Dart Rail Station around 6pm.
    ...and across the line.
