VA/MD/DC Meet interest?

[Ron Pfeiffer]

There seem to be enough of us around to have another meet, so lets see if we can get one rolling.

The dates that have been suggested are the 23rd or the 30th of this month. Any takers? Any other suggestions? Dave&Busters was where we had our last one, but location is up in the air too.

Chime in and let us know.

I'm interested in meet this summer...

[WormGod]

Perhaps. Lemme know. I am usually open on weekends. My VX is pretty stripped down and stock now since I have a 30k checkup coming up but it aint that big of a deal.

I'll bend my schedule around whatever the majority decides. Looking forward to seeing some mods, installed or not, especially the CF hood. See you all there.

I'd be interested in a Northern VA meet.

I'm up for a VA/MD meet on the 23rd. I can host at my house/garage if people are interested in tinkering at the meet.

My modlist, as partially inherited from Dallas4u includes a supercharger, trans interceptor, lowered seat, wheel spacers, upgraded brake lines, sunroof, etc.

The 23rd looks like the best time - no objections to it so far, whereas the 30th isn't good for some.

The best location would be something central to the whole area, I think (though I could be wrong). A big thank you to Project Big 1 for the offer of hospitality, but perhaps its too far south? Ditto for Front Royal. Though it would be cool to have in my back yard, and the Skyline Drive is beautiful (its 4 miles from the house as the crow flies - we go every weekend), it might be too far for the Baltimore/DC/MD people. Again, I could be on crack with this - anybody have any thoughts?

How about this - all for the 23rd, say aye. We work on location next. Tell us where you are NOT willing to drive. For me, I'll go anywhere.

I haven't been to Dave and Busters in probably 5 or 6 years, and it's fine with me. I'm in Fairfax County, so if there's something here that interests people I'm game for that as well.

Hi,

I'm a new VX'er. Meet date sounds good to me. I'll be the one holding up my passenger window with one hand and steering with the other.

I purchased my VX about a month ago. Passenger window failed a few days ago. I Discovered ceramic tab that bolts to regulator at bottom of window became unglued. Probably due to the well documented "window binding" problem. I've done the window fix per the posting I've seen on this site...but what kind of glue/epoxy/sticky-stuff do I use to fasten the ceramic tab back on to the bottom of the window? .

I'm also in the market for a roof rack...Any leads?

The 23rd is good for me. I would love to see a whole line of VX's at my usual Saturday Night cruise at Burger King in Manassas, in place of all the late model Mustangs and Vette's, but it may not be convenient for most folks, except maybe those to the west. Also, near Sperryville, on 211 at the base of the mountains of Shenandoah National Park, there is an open car show every weekend. It's a nice scenic drive once you get on 211 and a very cool country setting, with lots of cars and bikes passing through all day long. I only wish I could drive both my VX and my Cobra.

[Nazrat]

I was at that show about 2 weeks ago with a buddy (we usually go before dark, which means before the ricers and low riders show up) along with his Cougar, and about 4 years ago in my Hummbug. It would be fun to see a line of VXs in the field (overflow, but a fitting place for the VXs) behind the BJ next to all of the cars.

I do think that something more central would be a good idea though.

Hey, shouldn't we meet somewhere were we can do some off-roadin'. I just recently purchased my VX in APril and I am ashamed to have only driven it in the city since. It is screaming to run free in the wild!! Cmon guys, yeah restaurants and meeting anywhere would be great, but lets make our babies happy and give them some wide open spaces to play in. Any ideas?

[ISCE]

I look forward to the trip south in October. Hope to see you all then,
Jay

[Ron Pfeiffer]

It was good to see everybody - and so sweet to see those VXs all in a row.

I'll do some research on peak fall-color times up on Skyline Drive, and we'll set a date for the October meet.

Ron

P.S - thanks again to CobraJet for the vittles!
