Cpt,
How was the turn out today at C&C? I had to work today and couldn't make. We had a pretty good turn out last week.
Only Carpe Diem and I.
Lots of cars I've never seen before though

It's not just a car, it's a lifestyle and a community.
I know a couple of PT's or one PT and a Crossfire that might be there. Someone to meet and freak out that you know who they are.
MiO aka Mike-in-Orange - the dude who works for Meguiars. Who can set up a detail day for you guys. Its a cool thing to do! And you get goodies to take home!
And Jeff another PT owner who is a hardcore gearhead. He had a midget for a while, that just about killed him. It was a frustrating build that never made it. So he has a soft spot for a roadster..
Jeff on the left and MiO on the right.
MiO's rides.
The Crossfire
Jeff's rides.
A show PT and a track rat PT..
Yes its wearing slicks.
Yes its wearing slicks.. He got this one after chipping the paint on the one above..
Ok you know who to look for, they have pics of your cars.. Discuss and have fun

Carpe Diem - I've said it before, and I still agree . . . A front license plate on a Solstice is like a Playboy centerfold with a hair lip.
