Its a good school. Im in the Mechanical Engineering Dept hopefully graduating next summer. If you do get in gotta head out to the SAE shop. We are a drinking team with a racing problem, im sure you would fit right in.

Copperhead64 - do you have an title or author, or better yet the article. We have a scrapbook where we like to keep all PR we get.

1. LOL
2. No because im lazy (Give me 20min and ill have an answer)
3. Yes because im scared of my GF

Well the issue im having is that i really dont like putting my cell phone number on the internet. And i think NEDWARD is the only one who has less the 100 posts so i cant send him PM's. I wanted to give whoever is going my cell phone number so they can call me to make sure we all meet up. Any suggestions guys????

Oh yeah...

I'm thinking if the track opens at 6:00pm and races start at 6:30pm then first we meet up in the shopping Plaza on Miami Lakes Dr (154th). Which is right next to the on/off ramp for the SR826(Palmetto Expy) that leads us to both the track and/or Flanigans between 4:45-5:00pm. That way we can say hello and figure things out with due time. I'm sure 5.4 Lariet knows exactly where it is....

I think that is a much better ideaFull Bar,Food, Pool Tables, and hundreds of video games. They even have virtual golf !

If someone not o.k with that please let us know.

Hey guys yup I know exactly the shopping center on 154th, right by Cancun Grill! I think that will be a great spot, we can jump on the 826, exit on Ochechobee & head on down to the track. I may not stay to long though, I have a wedding to go to at 8:30, so I may just hang for a while take pics & stuff. I hope the weather holds up, it's been soooooo crappy lately.
