Ok gang, after talking with some other people from around the Cincy area we decided the 11th was probabally the best date for most people, and gives enough notice.
November 11th a Saturday, is the last day Tri-state raceway will have Test and Tune (Weather permitting) Some of us will be there that afternoon getting a few runs in, the last of the season. Heres more info on the track and location for that.

So that evening before its dark well head down to Newport KY, a little carvan from the track and meet up in a garage or lot, once we find a good one well post it up here so everyone knows. Theres plenty of food, bars and general shinanigans to get involved with down there, so we can all meetup for a while and have a BS / Parts swap and hangout, everyones welcomed. Well get some good pics of all of us to post up in the Photos & Media forum.
If you got anything you want to add etc, have at it, hopefully we can get a good group together,it should be fairly warm down in Newport.

i might make a run at the track
Oh...the 11th is a SATURDAY....derrrr
Saturdays are good, I can make just about any time. No drag racing for me though, I like the tires I have right now, and my Autocross tires are too worn out, I doubt they'd let me use them.
Somebody wanna loan me some drag radials? I would love to see what having the big TB on and running in cooler weather would do for my times
Get a specific location (address if you can get it, Google Maps is my friend) and time and I should be able to hang out a bit.
Otherwise, I can catch up with somebody else not going to the drags at a place I already know (Cincinnati mills or something?) and follow them down.

Sleeper style, they don't see it coming that way.
As long as it is not 30 degrees out, I'll go.

eastside=never
Open headers and a parking garage should be interesting...
Week and a half to go, any idea on times and location for those of us not drag racing?

I'd say if the track is open meet at the track around 6:30 and we can all head down to the levey If it rains or it's too cold to run we could meet at the levey at that time.

OK Gang,
Here's the deal, Track opens at 2:00 but we can get in at 1:30. So well be at the track from 1:30 to 4:30, It doesn't get dark at 7pm anymore, so well leave the track right around 4:30 and head down to Newport, about 45 min drive. So If your just wanting to meet up at Newport, be there around 6 or quarter till, that way theres still some light out.
Its 15.00 to run at the track, 5.00 for spectator.

We can meet in the parking lot right there on the map next to the bridge, there's a hooters right there on the river.
If I find a better location for the meet, like in a garage where its well lit, Ill post it up or notify everyone, Otherwise make sure you PM me your phone number and Name if you are going so I can hit up yoru cell on the day in case anything changes or if you need to get in touch with me.
Thanks!

Sounds teh awesome. I think I'm going to go ahead and hit up track crowd, I would like to see where my times are when it's not so stupid hot out as it was before.

THey open the gates at 12:30 and start running at 1pm. The pit lanes then close at 5pm. NIce meeting you last week Blackeco. How did you do?
If your interested in custom aluminum tilt wheel levers hit me up!
I ran a 15.4 then left when people starting breaking down and the lanes were closed for a while. First time out at the track with the stage 3 clutch, its going to take a few more runs to get used to launching the car. Hopefully nothing breaks so I can make the drive down to newport or I might be riding bitch in wasan03s sedan
Hope to see a few of you out this weekend, sounds like we might have another really nice day!

Weather's not looking too good for tomorrow
We can hope, but if it's raining, It's not worth it at the track, I'll just catch up later at Newport -- looks like the time to aim for is around 5:30-6-ish, right?

Well I was supposed to go to edgewater but rain cancelled that so the new spot is tristate. So beware the turbo dodge's are comming to own all
Yes it is a cavalier deal with it
