    yep, i am now 90% sure I will be there!
    just need to finish a few things on my impreza this weekend, pack, then meet up with everyone next weekend!

    and I will have Freddie with me too, in case anyone needs to know about extra people...

    and chux- the offroad thing sounds good! hopefully the things I am doing to my car this weekend will help with the offroad-ability :twisted:

    Well guys I won't make the duluth run. :( I have to go to Perham MN to talk with photographers for my wedding next summer. I would love to go, but it is not in the cards. I will just have to convince the fience that I get to add parts to my car instead.

    FYI: I am planning on heading to FS this friday around 7:30 or 8, if any of you are going to be around, I would like to meet you and put some faces to screen names. Later, Bill

    And so it begins. Who is next? I'm taking bets on how many people end up really going on this trip. I got my money on 5 people. This is going to end up like the last "MNSubaru Hand Raisers Club" meet we had when I had the teardown day.

    ok, did a little research, the cops only ticket for overnight parking on the wrong side of the street. or if you're on a narrow street for a long time and traffic can't get around. Anyway, 8th st (where I live) is one of those narrow streets, where there's barely enough room for parked car, and 2-way traffic, frequently if there are parked cars, and a car comes from the other way, one of you has to stop.

    BUT 1st Ave (3 houses down) is very wide, and rarely has cars parked on it. we could easily get 15 cars parked on the one block right next to my house.

    cliff notes: we can meet here. lots of parking on 1st AVE

    also, seriously, is this just another opportunity for you to all get s**tfaced? or are you all really interested in coming to duluth, meeting members from other parts of the state, and actually remembering the trip? This sounded like a really good idea when it first started, but I'm rapidly losing interest.

    My plans for getting sh!tfaced were for later that night when the driving was done, I had met everyone, and we were back at the hotel. This isn't a booze cruise to me, but later on, when I am back at my hotel room with the guys and gals that are also staying at the hotel, I intend to drink a little and play some GT4 with them.

    The duluth trip is a trip for us all to get together and see the fall colors up in duluth...a couple photo opportunities and such. Just to hang out and get a chance to meet the guys up north. Later that night most of us will return to our hotel rooms and whooop it up and play GT4 and hang out.

    dude, I wanna take my car! no (zero [0]) swaybars, and 4" of lift, and 91 crank hp-20 yrs....I think you'll be fine

    I still think it would be really fun to go to a bar/grill sort of place, where we can all get something that we want. alcohol will be available, burgers, sandwiches, salads, etc. and at Grizzly's, there'd be plenty of space for all of us to park there too!

    I understand going to battle scars parents place...but what do you expect? free dinner for all of us?

    i wasnt expecting free dinner at all...just a discount. I just threw it out as an idea because everyone is ALWAYS b!tching about moeny. I dont care where we eat out, we'll just have to call ahead to make sure we can get a group seated.

    kiss the ring


    PS Chux, stop being all negative like, you know you are gonna have fun.

    don't you mean the modFATHER?

    anyway, sorry, I didn't mean to sound like such a downer, but the tcstangs group came up last weekend, and 3 of my friends said they were coming (and bringing the video of me swamping my car), and they all backed out, and my weekend sucked balls. I'm also not as interested in asian food...so, no offense to battle scar, his parents' place doesn't sound as interesting to me.

    American Grill at the mall has good food, and a bar. There's also Bettys Pies RIGHT outside of Two Harbors (north side), big place, big parking lot, good grilled type food (AND AWESOME PIES!) not sure if they have booze though.

    Also does anyone have little 2way radios (walkie talkies) or whatever? we used these on the Minnesota Sport Compact fall cruise and they worked great.
