I would go but google maps said it was and hour and 20 mins away.

SaerinRhoe · 07-24-2009, 09:17 PM

LOL @ LRR - Dude, I'm modding the car as fast as I can with that flat black spray paint so they can't see me hiding. :)

And whoever thought up the idea of meeting at 6:30am on a Saturday? I will try to be there but no promises of me getting my arse up and in gear at that time of the morning. That happens to be just down the street from where I work at Tennyson and Windcrest. :)

Have a good weekend folks and keep the shiny side up!

Yea no kidding at 6:30 a.m. On the other side of DFW from me. I'll probably wake up tomorrow and wash my car and clean out the inside to get it ready for the race! Possible take some new pictures!!

July 25, 2009 - Coffee and Cars - Classic BMW of Plano

Here some pictures that I took while I was there this morning. This link points to my Picasa album so please let me know if it works for y'all or not.

http://picasaweb.google.com/SaerinRh...ndCarsPlanoTx#

I got there at 8:30am and left around 9:45am or 10:00am. If you go through the album, you'll find a picture of a black Ford Mustang Cobra with twin red racing stripes. I was parked immediately to the left of the grass median visible at the edge of the picture; just as a reference to where I was if anyone else showed up.

I didn't see any Yaris in the dealership's parking lot while I was there.

And you know what, if there is one picture that's a must see in that album, take a look at the very last picture. I snapped that one at a stop light after leaving. And, I'm all for home grown mods to your car but using a skateboard and 2-12" angle brackets for a rear wing? I LOL'd.

Take Care,

S.R.

Lazerdot · 07-26-2009, 06:47 PM

Thanks for showing up today. Maybe we can get a 5 car showing in September....? I can't make th Aug/23rd date.

Good job, the cones thank you!!!

wildmongoose26 · 07-26-2009, 08:58 PM

I saw a black yaris... I'm pretty sure that was you SaerinRhoe. We got there about 9ish and parked towards the back.

I think the bast part of the show was getting to watch all of the cars as they left! It is definitely worth waking up early to see some of the cars

lilredrocket · 07-26-2009, 09:36 PM

WHAT?!!! You showed up and didn't introduce yourself? It would have been nice to meet a new face. But oh well here's the pics..

lilredrocket · 07-26-2009, 09:39 PM

More.

Lazerdot · 07-26-2009, 10:00 PM

nice....

SaerinRhoe · 07-27-2009, 10:40 AM

Wild: Well poo, sorry that I missed seeing you and yours at the Coffee and Cars shows. It would have been nice to hang around for a bit and chat. Well, maybe next time. :)

LRR: Those are some nice pictures. Thanks for taking them and posting them. I'm waiting for the results to get posted on the ER website and the pics to come in from the guy that was out there taking pics of the racing. Hopefully there's a couple for us to laugh at.

S.R.

Lazerdot · 07-27-2009, 12:09 PM

Usuall the results come in within a day or two. Those pictures came out very nice. Whos the guy with the red face?

See you guys next event.

SaerinRhoe · 07-27-2009, 12:56 PM

Someone who's so far out of shape that he's going through life sideways in a Yaris.

lilredrocket · 07-27-2009, 02:00 PM

^ When did you learn how to drift a Yaris?

Lazerdot · 07-27-2009, 04:38 PM

interestingly, I was the only one who spun out....

SaerinRhoe · 07-27-2009, 09:48 PM

I've been drifting ever since I got out of high school and realized I had no plan for my life

but I picked up the idea of drifting a Yaris from a couple of crazies that I hung around with in Houston one Sunday afternoon.

And, on a slightly different note, the results from the ER event are posted at www.autocross.com/er if anyone's interested in seeing them. I'm quite happy that I didn't wind up at the bottom of the PAX list.

S.R.

lilredrocket · 07-27-2009, 10:00 PM

Atleast I didn't end up last!! I am actually really surprised!!

SaerinRhoe · 07-28-2009, 10:47 PM

I think we all did really good, especially in our plan to let Mr. Lazerdot think his car's actually faster than ours.
