Before I forget, I wanted to relate a ricer story to you guys:
So I'm driving up El Camino from Business80. I'm stuck behind a Chevy Cavalier with a giant fart can and cut springs. While I am admiring that lovely view of automotive excellence, this guy in a Daewoo pulls up along side me and revs his engine at me. Mind you he had an automatic and had to shift to neutral, rev, and shift back into drive, creating a large clunking sound in his driveline. I look over (my window was down) and laugh out loud. The passenger looked like he was going to cry. The driver got pissed off and sped up and into the median turn lane. He revved his engine several more times and then I heard a loud metallic sound and a plate dropped out from under his car. I don't know if he had a cutout that fell off or it was just a case of Daewoo quality control / drivetrain abuse, but I had to laugh again. Then I downshifted and blew past the Cavalier so my gut would stop hurting from laughing so hard.
Then I got stuck at the light behind an MX-3 with Supra taillights and a Supra wing. I almost thought it was a Supra (really
)!

So at this weeks meet I think we all need to start trying to figure out a new place to gather. I'm pretty sure we're going to have a hard time meeting in our current spot once that Sushi place opens up.
Any ideas on a new location?

Of course we should probably find somewhere with some decent food options while trying to remain as central as possible. The Baja Fresh/Togo's/Jamba Juice over on El Camino seemed fairly deserted the last time we went there. Although I think I would miss the pucks!
