It was, ahem, "wicked" cool to finally meet some MM owners. Bunny, illwood, mm.owner, hotrauder, MM03MOK, Go Mifuni, Thunderbolt, JwMclane, Courtmarshall, etc.... (sorry if I missed anyone)

All in all, the weather "kinda" held out while we were googling over each others' cars. The trip to and from got a bit wet at times. All in all.......Good times. LOVE the Blue. Thought I wouldn't, but completely badass color. Two Trilogy's, 6 or 7 Blacks, 2 Silver Birch, 1 Blue, and 0 DTR's.

Those of you who took pictires, Let's see em!!!!!

Great to meet all of you. :beer:

Yes! The rainbow, the base of that thing was HUGE! I was marveling at that thing for a good 10 minutes after the toll!! I look in my mirror and all I see is color! Never seen one so precise and mammoth. Meg was astounded. I took some crappy cell phone pics, but they came out bleh. The guys driving east sure had a nice shot!

Hey guys, I also had a good time on Saturday and it was great to meet everyone.

I'd like to thank Mike for the Godshead steering wheel logo (I've took that trailer light harness out of the car on Sunday, so let me know when we can meet and it's yours).

I'll be posting up pictures around 6:30pm or so when I get back from work.

My pleasure. Did you apply it in the parking lot or did you wait to get home? :lol:
When is the next time you think you might be heading to your parents house? I could meet you there.

Hey Mike!

I waited until I got home to put the logo on. You know and then I agonized about getting it centered and at the correct angle.

I'll probably be heading over there this coming weekend. I go through Berlin on my way, so I could just drop it off.

*WRT the pictures. Photobucket isn't behaving right now so I will have to try loading them later this evening*

The "Invisible Mifuni", nice. :D
One of my favorite things about the meet was when we were leaving. I was stopped to turn left and all I could hear was the beautiful sound of three Marauders coming up simultaneously on my right. It gave me goosebumps and a HUGE smile.
Can't wait to do it again. Maybe before I have to put on my ugly steelies?

If Saturdays are good, either Nov. 17 or Nov. 24?

If that exit works well, there's a Long Horn Steakhouse just a few yards up on the right, behind McDonald's. We'd be able to put tables together there to make sure we all fit comfortably. I've eaten there a few times.

I'm not available on the 17th, so I vote for the 24th.

Why don't we just go to Cracker Barrel off of Exit 15 on 495S? (Well, South for me :D)Their food is excellent, plenty of parking for every one to see our sexy cars! Not to mention Wrentham Village Outlets are right there after for us to go to a photo shoot.
