    I wanted to invite the Subaru guys out to our Weekly GarageGeek meet :) We are there every Weds and have a few Subarus that show. But we are hoping to get some more. The meet is open to all cars. Besides from us the I'mStanced and RX7Club groups have joined us since we started earlier this year.

    Good times for all!

    Where: Sonic - 2101 American Blvd W Bloomington, MN 55431
    When: Every Wednesday at 6:45pm roughly

    We are normally still there after dark... so pushing 10pm or later :) Most of us work early in the morning but never leave when you should :p

    I'll be there in the white Subaru if you want to say "Hi" :)

    Also because of the growing population, we have been parking in the overflow area. Just look for the cars :) But you can park where ever you like :)

    I actually ran across this meetup about a month ago. I was in the 2010 black WRX, stopped and chatted for a bit after I got my food. Been meaning to drop on by again, just been busy most Wednesdays.

    Rain or shine we will be at Sonic tonight. There is a decent amount of cover, maybe not for all the cars, but at least the people :)

    It would be nice to see some more people checking out this meet. It's a good time with some good friends and you get to meet different people instead of the same 20-30.

    Yep! The meet is meant to bring car enthusiasts of all kinds together and I think we are doing a pretty good job, since the parking lots is getting pretty full every week :)

    And today is Wednesday! So let gets some Subie action going tonight! As normal, I will be there with the husband in the RHD White GC8.

    Depends on how you like to spend your time. ;)

    I think this meet is coming along pretty well for being a brand new club in a virgin location on an odd weekday night. It would be nice if it was a little less clique-y. RKC can pull off that kind of vibe. I don't think it works for a smaller organization/event like this.

    Loosen up people!

    I agree :) We have spread the word out to many 'groups' at this point so that might attribute to the clique-yness, but we have new people coming every week. Our main goal it just to bring car enthusiasts together, no matter what you drive. If you are looking for NOS girls and burnouts, you are at the wrong meet :p

    Will be there in the Ranger tonight :) I will warn everyone now. THE BELT SQUEELS WHEN IT STARTS!!!!!!!!! It is a NEW belt too. Suspect the previous owner installed the wrong idler pulley so everything is misaligned.
