. I'll see if maybe he'll ask some of his clients if they want to come, since it's pretty much a high roller gathering. But I wasn't sure if you guys wanted any Lambos coming...

6speedonline Annual Meet/Drive
Is it a "high roller gathering" or "6speedonline/Porsche" gathering?
I think it would be best to keep it Porsche only, unless your invited. And if you want to bring a non Porsche, inquire with Alex.

I would think that unless Akkurat and Carlsen want to make this just a car gathering, I suggest it stay / be limited to Porsches (with perhaps a few very limited exceptions already).
I hope the concept of opening it up to a very limited few (6speed members) that do not have Porsches is not creating problems.

I don't think inviting Fred and (excuse me for not knowing your name) GoWide to come is a problem.
The problem is someone calling it a "highroller gathering" and everything shows up.
Again, your invited if you own a Porsche and if you want to drive something else to the event, please ask permission

Certainly Fred, as the originator of the first mega-event would be a legacy attendee, even if he drove up in a Celica and is no 'problem', IMO, unless he starts to sing.
I imagine that GoWide is also no 'problem'. However, calling car dealerships and asking them to invite non P-Car customers, does not seem in the spirit of this gathering.

If GoWide can talk Mr. Monster Lee into letting him take his CGT for a day then he's definitely not a problem in my book 
Otherwise, all non-porsche-6speeders should go to Akkurat and get an "inspection" by Alex The Sharkster first.
If Sharky approves, we approve.

OK folks, the starting point will be to meet at Carlsen Porsche where we'll be able to park and be provided with coffee and dougnuts (woo woo) at 9:30am:
After some chit-chat and stuff, I figure we should head down (we'll print out a route etc...) for a luncheon organized by Robert over at the Baja Cantina at 3pm. Let's head down in groups and please keep it safe folks- it's not a race. We'll do track days for more spirited driving (remember we don't want the coppers on us or any mishaps).
The Lunch Menu Will be a buffet (Robert got it down to 30 per head):
Chicken Quesadillas
Ceasar Salad
Vegtable Tray
BBQ Shrimp
Chicken/Beef Fajitas
Cheese Enchiladas
Robyn, Itzkirb, Robert et all will figure out the route soon.

Thanks Alex, for emphasizing it not being a race. The last trek to santana row did get a bit out of hand, especially when some fool decided to pass the porsches on the right shoulder at 100mph!
ItzKirb, let's make it an Amazing Race kinda route. You know, stop at diff locations for further instructions
