Would I be thrown out of the meet if I showed up still wearing winter tires?

The way this winter has been I would not be surprised at all if it snowed at the end of April.

On the other hand I really want to remove the winter tires already...... I just can't find a set of rims that I both like and can afford.

These dates work for me.

I'm down for the meet. Also if any of you are interested in spectating at a drift event, There is one happening in WS. on the 27th. I'll give more details
if your interested. The members of club-fr are hosting this event, so it would be cool to rep CL and support some local drivers.

I spoke to my contact @ Woodfield and they are happy to sponsor something. I just need to know what. Feedback please!

I was thinking the 20th. Maybe they could supply food & beverages and a welcome CL banner?

Wow that is very nice of them. I recall that the Toyota dealer in Elmhurst? All i recall is the name Kirt...They did this more no less for the Supra guys but we would show up in our GSX Eclipses! Was a good time. The would throw on the BBQ and raffle off TRD and other parts! Not sure what they are willing to do but I am sure we can round up a decent size group for them!
