We could head over there after the meet & greet :mrgreen: It IS just accross the street and all
This would be a great meet and greet event. If I'm not too hung over from the NY's Eve party... I, for sure will be there. Erik and Steve-O's just across the river in Cottage, I'm sure Erik will make it... anything close to KOD's got Erik's name written all over it. I'm sure he's game as long as his wife doesn't chain him up LOL
wow, I guess I shouldnt have refernced my girl as my wife, just a g/f And did I hear KOD???? hmmmmmm ILL BE THERE

If I can lift my head from the floor I'll be there.... then off to ice racer work... (yeah we are going slow....)
Had a blast and hope everyone who came did too. Seemed kinda like a dive at first... pizza place was closed (duh why didnt we realize it was New Years Day? Not much open!) So after hanging around for an hour we all went down to DQ.... well DQ was closed but we saw another little diner just a block away that was open. All went in and had a little lunch. Then took off down to the offroad trails. Everything had froze over again so we didnt get dirty. Lots of frozen rain to make it interesting however! Fuji K in his Impreza sport wagon (with weldied diff! WOOT) was doing some wicked donuts in an open area. All the Impreza's and WRX's did fine offroad. Then we took the SUVs over the table top and made our way over to the mini-hill climb. Took the Jeep up and down that. I think the Jeep guy liked it. He'd never taken it offroad and was happy to 'test out 4 low' :-p Glad so many people came out. I think we had around 13 people there and 5 or 6 Subarus there, 1 Jeep and 1 4Runner. MNSubaru crowd was definatly in the majority !_! Thanks for coming and hope to see more next time. :mrgreen:
