Hi James, I'm one of those weirdos that doesn't eat red meat, so don't count me for your burrito making supplies (I'll prolly eat something prior to arriving in Vallejo from San Luis Obispo). My plan is leave SLO around 8:30, so I'll be in Vallejo around Noon or 12:30. I've got your phone number, so I'll call as I near town to see where the lunch crowd ends up. Looking forward to it!
Geoff

I'll make either a chicken burrito for you or maybe fish tacos?

A very cool afternoon spent hanging with everyone! Seven ti's in one meeting!

My good camera battery took a dump on me, so nothing but phone pics coming from me, but Rich did have his DSLR, so I'll expect some better pics will be posted soon...

We'll try and do this again soon, maybe early summer?

It was a great time, and thanks to James for hosting. I'll definitely be there for the next one. And please pardon my douchebag exit; guess I was "inspired" by the 'vette guys...

Haha! your exit was way better than the vette guys, they peeled out in a straight line, where you on the other hand had a "S' peelout, almost an ampersand shaped one. We were cheering you on! Great to meet you... Cheers!

Now, I didn't drive James car very long, but I did find his revlimiter twice.

Maybe Artem will have his beast up and screaming by then.
