BBQ Meet in Lowell, MA on Sat May 14 (Now=Pics)

Hi folks,

I'm a moderator on www.is300.net
and i'm trying to make this seem as non-trolling as possible. If i'm breaking any forum rules, I apologize in advance. Please let me know and I'll correct whatever it is.

There will be a free BBQ and hangout in Lowell, MA at a body shop called Ventura's. It'll be a fun get-together for people to check out other's rides and enjoy each other's company. It's a pretty spacious parking lot off so there should be plenty of room to park and hang out.

The owner of Ventura's isn't the most internet saavy so I'm helping him put up this thread.

There are quite a few turbo'd IS300's and modified ones in the boston area (mine included) that will be showing up. The RX8 forums are invited and the Fairlady's as well. Hopefully we'll get a pretty good turn out.

In addition to the meet, Ventura's is offering discounted body work/paint work for people who show up and express interest in having some work done.

The info:
Date: Saturday May 14th
Time: 11AM-3PM or whenever people feel like leaving
Where: Ventura Autobody (They have a fairly large parking lot)
Address: 1599 Middlesex Street
Lowell, MA 01851


Feel free to ask any questions you want.
I know it's a little odd for a newbie to organize a meet, but hell someone needs to start the summer off.
Hope to see you guys there. If possible, a roll call would be great so Ventura's can gauge how much food they need to purchase.

damn, is there really no interest?

There are about 20 IS300's listed, some coming from NY and NJ
and a few RX8's coming
The 350z's have a cape code cruise so they prob won't be coming.

Damn, this thread isn't emailing me updates.
Sorry for the late reply.

I have 20+ IS300 owners coming from areas as far as NJ.

But yeah, I realize it's a long drive. Thanks for the compliments
Maybe another time if you guys can't make this one.

Feel free to hit me up on AIM if you want more info. I'm usually on all day. SophieSleeps is the IM.

For the 1 G35 driver who showed up.
It was nice meeting you. Too bad there wasn't more. Glad you made it though.
