2016 Spring NCSQ Meet - 08-09 April 2016 - near Greensboro, NC

[Notloudenuf]

We had another great NCSQ meet this past Fall....again, pitiful weather, but really good people and excellent cars! Even with a good attendance, there were several that couldn't make it and 'vowed' they would be here with a semi-finished or complete system.

Now......let's talk about many of the attendees favorite part of these shin digs.......The Food!

My wife and I are providing the burgers / buns.

Bill has the 5 pounds of Pennsylvania dogs (we will get the buns)

Scott has the famous corn dip

Anyone else (especially the local guys) who want to bring something homemade / semi-homemade - that would be great.

Cole Slaw......Baked Beans, etc. if anyone wants to bring that.

We have a couple bottles of mustard and ketchup, but if someone wants to bring cheese, lettuce, onions, etc. that would be great.

NEEDS

Chips of various types

Sodas (2-liter bottles probably) of various types

Dessert type stuff - cookies, etc.

And.....I want to give away everything that is not consumed by the end of the night. I don't want donuts, etc. left here because we can't eat them / don't need them.

For those coming on Friday night, We will order pizza - try to get here close to 5 so we can get a count for the order. We don't want to be ordering at 8....if you know you are coming, but won't make it until 7 or so....just let me know ahead of time, and we will order for you.

And for everyone, please bring folding chairs of some type if you want to sit during the day - in the garage or in the yard.

It pains me but I won't be able to make it, I really wanted to hear and see what everyone has been up to. I was pretty confident I was going to attend but everyone and their sister conflicted with the date.

My sister and nephew are flying in to visit that weekend and it would probably be rude of me to disappear for the day. I WILL be at the fall meet pending I'm not dead.

[claydo]

Sorry to hear that rich, I didn't get to hear your ib setup last time. Enjoy the family time....

[Babs]

That's a shame Rich but completely understood. Family comes first. Good man. Hope that Honda tune is coming along nicely.

I didn't hear it in the Fall either, but I'll make sure I'm in line to hear it this Fall.

[Salami]

You all have fun and I know you will.

Bonus is I have more time to implement some changes I haven't had the time or the money to finish. They should be done by the fall meet.

Jason start thinking about a date now so I can make sure none of my relatives will visit at the wrong time. :-P

1 week away.

[Afghan Vet]

A quick update.......with this incredible weather we are having, I'm getting super excited about the event. Today would have been perfect....but we are fixin' to have (country saying)......a cold spell.

Now, a couple housekeeping issues.

Parking

I'm going to be setting up saw horses with signs directing you to not park on the neighbor's yard. This isn't because they complained.....Vicki just said it would be a neighborly thing to do, and I try to follow her advice any chance I get. So just watch for those and obey.

Also....if you don't have a working system - you are here to gather ideas - and chat it up with the fellas'.......try to park a bit down the road......let's try to group the cars folks will be listening to in the driveway, road closest to the driveway. We likely won't be rearranging guys if a no-system car is parked closer, etc. but we will use a little common sense when it comes to where to park.

Smoking

We will have our designated smoking spot with the designated smoking pot......(receptacle....you know what I'm trying to say).


Table

We will have a couple set up, but if someone can bring another one, that would be helpful - James doesn't have the Ford anymore, so we might have to improvise.

Power

Since it shouldn't be wet......we should be able to do additional runs of power cords for chargers, etc. down the driveway - we will just have to be smart about where we tie in. There is an outlet on the front porch that can be utilized as well.

Friday Night

Looking forward to it! I'll try to break away from work semi-early and start setting things up. Hopefully we will have a hand full of guys that will be here to get an early start on demos or talking shop and eating pizza. Again - the hours for Friday are roughly 4:00 PM to 10:30 PM, and the hours for Saturday are roughly 9:00 AM to 10:30 PM.

Any questions - post them here.

[erinh]

I plan to be there by 6pm Friday night. Just depends on the traffic.

See y'all there!

[claydo]

I should be there by 6 friday too! Yall don't forget me on the pizza order ifn I ain't there yet......
