kansas city area opelers

hey to kansas city area people

would it be possible to organize a get together this weekend? maybe at an area sonic? what a hoot it would be to have 4 or 5 opels together in one place!!

i'm not sure when sonic cruise nights start. even if it is not a regular cruise, how about we all get together for a burger and fries? i haven't had the opportunity to meet the other people in my area, and this would be the perfect way to meet.

how about it? friday or saturday? let me know by replying to this thread. let's do this!!

mike

I'm game for Sat. How about around noon for lunch? I was checking our various towns and I think Lawrence is in the middle for most of us. I'll have to come in my lil' red pick-em up truck, though.

Sounds like a great idea.

I've got to see what I have going on.

I need to get the tail and brake lights working before I drive my GT anywhere, along with some other work.

Bucky, Is your GT driveable?

Two left turns don't make a right,
but three do!

Hmm.....we have some Opeler's farther south than I thought. Would the SCCA parking lot be better in Topeka? Might be a thought as we could see where to show off our rides to the "other" sports car crowd. AFTER finishing whatever we have planned to spruce them up!

Lets get all of us KS / Mizzu Opeler's on line and pick a place by Friday afternoon. I love to eat, even in my truck!

I would love to go but I can't make it this weekend. If you guys are looking at Topeka you might want to drop by Heartland Park, I am 99% sure that there is a SCCA Club race this weekend there.

I am going to spend my time under the car for 4 days....hopefully at the end of my long weekend it will be ready for paint.

Maybe June 5th or 12th weekend. Give everyone time to prep some. Maybe I'll have mine on the road (hope-a-hope).

I realy liked the idea of getting together in a park or something like that. My car is not street-able, but I would love to get with all of you guys and put faces with names.

I can't do anything this weekend but am open for the 5th or 12th also. My place is still available for a BBQ or something if everyone can make it a little farther south. The fish are biting !!!!

I was informed that I forgot the Easter egg hunts. Shame on me! My daughter is my backup memory system . June, but I'd have to do the daytime as I have my daughter on the weekends. Can't take her on long drives at night. You know how women are, no matter what age!
