If it's really that cold, just park one floor done. It should be warmer since the walls will block off the wind.

So what happened to the other Evo's that were going to show up? It was nice to see the other cars that were there.

It is hard during the summer to do weekly meets, so when it's cold, it's almost impossible. Good luck on keeping this as a weekly meet during the winter season. To keep the number of attendees higher, you might want to reduce the frequency or something. Renton is tri-weekly. Others are once a month. It's always hard to get something like this figured out, but as long as you get a good local base, it could work itself out.

The location has it's pluses and minuses. Pluses - It was good to be unbothered and to have guaranteed group parking. Minus - it was too far away from other stuff. What I like about the Landing is that people can meet up with good parking, walk to get some food, and come back to all the cars after. All the while, other people that show up can easily join the group at any point.

Who has the RA with the truck suspension?

Looks like a good turnout, too bad the FB post encouraged bringing drugs. Not really sure why that was included on the invite.

I feel you dude. I was going to choose Renton, but saturday nights there are jam packed all the way up to the roof, trust me i checked. And im just trying to get these meets going for us Mitsu's since the Subie forums got very successfull weekly meets going on twice a week. One in Renton on thurdays. One in woodinville on mondays. Im just hoping we can do the same thing. As long as EVERYONE SPREADS THE WORD, the meet will get more popular, and there will be a constant turnout. The biggest issue of bad turnouts, is that people miss the threads we put up, or the word just dosent get to them. So SPREAD THE WORD!
