Here we go again. Its been awhile since Ive been able to put together a run. Anywhoo, here are details:

We will be meeting at the Waffle House at Exit 11 in Ooltewah Tn at 8:45. We will have a departure time of 9:00 SHARP! I will be present at the Waffle House at 8AM to eat some breakfast and clean my car:), so if you want to come early and eat then feel free! We are going to be taking a drive through the Ocoee and then cut over to Reliance TN through the twisty backroads that this area has to offer. Last time we made a single quick loop. Ive changed this route up a little bit so it has more to offer. The drive will take about 1.5 hours to complete. After the drive I will have planned for us to take a lunch at everyones favorite place, Ichiban Japanese Steakhouse. We will be eating around 11 or 11:30. If you want to join in, please paste your name below as well as how many people you will be bringing and if you plan to do lunch and the drive or just the drive on the list so I can have an accurate headcount. See you there! :redspot

it was dark, i couldnt quite tell, but it know it was a red M3, and i coudlnt see the wheels, which suggested to be that they were dark in color.

Which one of you guy's were downtown yesterday near the ford dealership? I was behind a red e36 with chrome wheels and clears and a drop. Said car entered the freeway and went towards the old jonny bridge.

I'm supposed to go to Cedar Point that weekend with some friends, but if that plan falls apart (which it probably will at this point), then I'll definitely be on the drive. I really want to see how badly Ely will beat on that new motor.

I'll have to be somewhat carefull as I now have the power to push the suspension to it's limits, where as before I could just run it WOT all the time:buttrock

Haven't ridden that one (weird, since I lived in Ohio and moved here after it was built). Though I must say that the 1st hill for the Millenium Force is a religious experience.
